discussions and the qualities of law
oh my god.
just had a major heated discussion wid my mum on globalisation.
sheesh.
she had her views on why glob HAS to stay on, and i was tryin to tell her wad we were learnin in sch. (example Fair trade and Free trade. CAN'T help it! its stuck in my head! - image of mdm Aisha jumpin arnd animatedly) that free trade widens disparities btwn the rich and poor. yak yak yak.
she keeps insistin that ppl in developed countries enjoy they're simple life as low incomed ppl.
i juz told her that everybody, eventually wants to improve their lifestyle (SOL), even if by just a little bit.
globalisation prevents that. (or rather its appears that)
then she says its becasue of they're lousy governance.
and i said, yea, of course there are the other factors that affect such, but its because they are so far behind the global competition, it makes catchin up hard to do with the world leaders like the US.
then she brought in singapore sayin that if we did not participate actively in free trade would we still be as accomplished as we are today. (she mistook free port for free trade. /: ANYWAY)
i told her that free trade was only an example i used and that singapore got their wealth at the very beginning before free trade was really an issue.
thats when she brought in governance again. *argh!
developing countries are moving on to the quatinary and quinery industries while the developing world is still stuck at the basic primary and secondary industries with all their raw material shit. becasue of glob, developed countries manage to rise out and move further ahead of the competition while the developing world lags behind due to lack of revenue or ability to break fromthe chain as being primary producers.
so basically we were arguin 2 diff points which led me to feel so tired out cause it all was just a futile cause.
except now my mum understands the diff btwn free and fair trade.
*shrugs
Thank goodness i din bring in the roles of TNCs, or i would haf dropepd dead thinkin of diff examples to argue my point against a totally diff point that she is raising to counteract ME.
i'm blustered out. if law is this strenduous, i think i'll pass. /:
HAHA.
