Dear Gobar Times Readers,

p59.jpg Apart from the monsoon, a lot of things people are talking about. Murders is happening a lot, Sachin Tendulkar is so good, and there is this meeting on environment occured in Johannesburg, a place in South Africa. Did you know when the America person came to speak, everyone shouted ‘Boo!’ And do you know why? Because big countries say no rules should be there for selling and buying things. I think they are right. Why should there be rules? Isn’t our India also democratic country? What is wrong with buying phoren food and clothes if I get it cheap-cheap?

I am asking this to myself today. I make. I sell, you buy. You make. You sell, I buy. We all profit, we all consume and we all live happily ever after. But you see, Mr Rich says, "I make computers, chocolate, electronics. I sell very expensive, you, Mr. Poor, will buy very expensive. You make cocoa, bananas, coffee. You sell very cheap, I buy very cheap. I set the rules, we trade, I profit, I mostly consume and I live happily ever after." I am thinking of all the population of the world. So many poor, so less rich. All this somehow does not sounding fair.
