I’m sure that they must be strategically planning using SWOT or balance score cards to see how they can retain their superiority in economic power and by no means are they thinking of democracy or having economic equality after all this would discount the premise of the name “G8″. I think at this point various “disadvantaged” nations should stop waiting for handouts from the so called economic powers and start developing economic power themselves. For Instance, if we Africans are not too lax and fighting meaningless illogical wars, perhaps we can brdge the economic gap by “owning” our resources and stop depending on maana from IMF and World Bank. I think developing world need tenacity and a little bit of imagination and no, I do not mean the “secret” per the Oprah movement of envisioning crap and waiting for the angel to hand in the “bicycle” ( Read or watch the “secret”-the new brainwashing movement in America)but I mean seriously sit and look for ways to depend upon themselves and learn a little bit of what they are worth so that way they can understand they value they hold in natural riches and human resources.

If and when this happen we also can have our own “G9″ for what it is worth and can parade our might too.

Way to go Nigeria with China collaboration of your new launch of a satellite which of course received insignificant coverage as compared to Paris Hilton jail term!

So when is Kenya Launching Satelliteagain? with collaboration with China or some other discounted nation like South Korea ..oh my USA would go nuts on that one!
