Salutations to All,
Please remember that English is not my first Language.
I read and write without ''Correctors''
I listen, read and write in the languages that have their roots in Latin, German, Greek, Hebrew and Sanskrit. So, when I comment it is a personnal perception, when I quote or refer to something I am authentic.
I am a volunteer on the International level.
My ''Drive'' is to reduce morbidity and mortality and it is so for years. (You can Google it).
Here at DailyKos I dare to share what my convictions are.
Tonight is an important night for the World, the Medium of Omnipresence the President Obama will paint Himself in the corner and we will have to live with it.
At least that is how Internationally, it is perceived.
So here are the Medias Diffusion of National Perceptions and of course I do my best to relay Independant Diffusers relaying Humanitarians Views.
Thank you,
Snowy Owl
Today is the first day of the Davos Summit, the World Economic Forum.
From Wikipedia
The World Economic Forum (WEF) is a Geneva-based non-profit foundation best known for its annual meeting in Davos, Switzerland which brings together top business leaders, international political leaders, selected intellectuals and journalists to discuss the most pressing issues facing the world including health and the environment. The Forum also organizes the "Annual Meeting of the New Champions" in China and a series of regional meetings throughout the year. In 2008 those regional meetings included meetings on Europe and Central Asia, East Asia, the Russia CEO Roundtable, Africa, the Middle East, and the World Economic Forum on Latin America. In 2008 it launched the "Summit on the Global Agenda" in Dubai.
The World Economic Forum was founded in 1971 by Klaus M. Schwab, a business professor in Switzerland.[1] Beyond meetings, the Forum produces a series of research reports and engages its members in sector specific initiatives.[2]

No surprise as French President Nicolas Sarkozy starts clobbering the banks and trumpeting the need for greater regulation in his keynote speech.
He is backing Barack Obama's plan to restrict the size and operation of US banks and said "globalisation skidded out of control" in the financial crisis.
"President Obama is right when he says that banks must be dissuaded from engaging in proprietary speculation or financing speculative funds," Mr Sarkozy declared. "From the moment we accepted the idea that the market was always right and that no other opposing factors need be taken into account, globalisation skidded out of control."
But the unassuming President wants to make clear that he has not come to Davos preach. "I haven’t come here as a political leader to teach anyone lessons, but to tell you that we must together draw the lessons of the crisis. We are all responsible for this crisis."
He also attacked free trade, saying its prioritisation over all else has "weakened democracy".
In Le Monde in France we can read;
Nicolas Sarkozy inscrira la réforme du système monétaire international au menu du G8 et du G20 qu'il présidera en 2011
LEMONDE.FR | 27.01.10 | 20h57 • Mis à jour le 27.01.10 | 20h58
Sarkosy will indent a reform of the international monetary system in the agenda of the G8 and G20 that he will Preside in 2011.
Comments
Typical French anticipation, Sarkosy introduce President Obama and is trying to buy Time before it happens.
