WTO 會議 完滿結束

WTO 會議終於完滿結束，做到這種雙嬴局面真的非常難得！

可惜在處理扣留人士的手法就有待去學習用比較明智的方式去處理！

WTO – 被韓國農民感動

以下圖片是由明報提供:
昨天親眼看著那班韓國農民以『三步一叩首』的方式由維多利亞公園遊行到灣仔的示威區，真的很感動，其實可以說是難過。因敬佩他們的努力以赴，明知官字兩個口，加上是國際性，做什麼都改變不了但仍那麼用心去做。但有一樣事情就是，他們已經感動了我。

今早看到他們的有關報導都忍不住眼濕濕，希望他們可以如願。我不希望見到和平示威之後隨之而來是他們激烈的行動。

「三步一拜」是南韓傳統的佛教儀式，數千年前佛教傳入南韓時已經存在，佛教徒會透過「三步一拜」顯示誠意及嚴肅，是一個相當痛苦的儀式。參與遊行的南韓農民金孝陽表示，今次以「三步一拜」遊行，目的是希望淨化新自由主義下全球一體化帶來的影響，並拯救因世貿而受苦的農民。他指出，農民視「三步一拜」為最困難情況下的「最後行動」。

在經濟科的市場策劃方面和人力資源學上來看，他們的手法是可以比美我們很多的官員和大公司。

很佩服他們其中的一個創意(應該說是照顧周度) - 頭巾指路

WTO 的反思

昨天我們終於可以work at home，因多方面的努力之下才有這成果！誰叫我們的領導人是單身年青外籍人士，那會明白我們的擔憂！

今天親眼看到示威者的表現，其實不是那麼懼怖，可能他們的人數不多，加上他們知道自己的目標！而他們的克制包容值得尊重，他們在示威衝突的勇狠令人大開眼界，而他們服從指揮的紀律性，以及示威完畢之後各人自行清理垃圾的專業表現，更令我印象深刻。

我真係好敬佩／欣賞他們的民族精神！他們的團結，整齊，勇敢，不怕艱辛，目標一致，雖然佢地窮，教育水平低，但情操比好多讀過書既人更高！而且為了今次的ＷＴＯ，他們努力學我們的語言和英文，這方面是更值得一讚，我們香港人更應自我反醒！

WTO

*公眾遊行交通安排

只有幾天便WTO，身在會議場地附近，可以感受到有關方面的緊張。公司所在的商廈以保安理由，幾天前已特別派發我們一張‘拍卡証’以便出入時有記錄可尋，否則便要登記ID no.。

這區的大廈由地面至商場外牆都拉上鋼網，如有空曠花園的便用高圍板圍上，有間銀行更用鐵皮通把自己圍起來！公司更儲備了大量食品和水，以防不時之需！

大家都不敢輕視這事情，為何公司不給我們 Work at home?　沒事發生當然好，但交通一定受到應響，而且午飯也是一個問題。

收到網友寄來以下的message:

Go and look on the kitchen floor,
You'll find some flowers there by the door.

Those are the flowers he brought for you.
He picked them himself: pink, yellow and blue.

He stood very quietly not to spoil the surprise,
you never saw the tears that filled his little eyes."

By this time, I felt very small,
And now my tears began to fall.

I quietly went and knelt by his bed;
"Wake up, little one, wake up," I said.

"Are these the flowers you picked for me?"
He smiled, "I found 'em, out by the tree.
I picked 'em because they're pretty like you.
I knew you'd like 'em, especially the blue."

I said, "Son, I'm very sorry for the way I acted today;
I shouldn't have yelled at you that way."
He said, "Oh, Mom, that's okay.
I love you anyway."

I said, "Son, I love you too,
and I do like the flowers, especially the blue."

FAMILY
Are you aware that if we died tomorrow, the company
that we are working for could easily replace us in a matter of days.

But the family we left behind will feel the loss
for the rest of their lives.

And come to think of it, we pour ourselves more
into work than into our own family,
an unwise investment indeed,
don't you think?
So what is behind the story?

Do you know what the word FAMILY means?
FAMILY = (F)ATHER (A)ND (M)OTHER (I) (L)OVE (Y)OU
