"Here's a joke I heard from a certain finance minister from an emerging-market country, who said he heard it on a trip to Europe: God gets so angry over the Asian crisis that He decides to end the world in three days. He summons Bill Clinton, Boris Yeltsin and Kim Dae Jung up to heaven and gives them the news. Clinton returns to the Oval Office and tells Al Gore: "There's good news and there's bad news. The good news is that God exists. The bad news is that He's going to end the world in three days. So let's party." Yeltsin appears before the Politburo and tells the members: "There's bad news and there's bad news. The bad news is that contrary to what we thought, God exists. The other bad news is that the Tyrant will end the world in three days." Kim Dae Jung appears on national television and informs his people: "There is good news and there is good news! First, God chose me among all the world's leaders for a special meeting with Him, Clinton and Yeltsin! And second, He informed us all that in three days the Asian crisis will come to an end!"
