Humans have to realize that the ‘cowboy economics’ works no more; instead we need to accept the limit of nature’s potentials. Therefore, principles of inclusions – inclusion of the interests of people out of the nations – shall guide all nations in their economic plannings and development. Let Mr Obama, the president of the US (the leading nation of the world), lead the global society to a different economic, political, scientific and spiritual perspetives for a sustainable future for humans on the earth.
