My focus is on areas of regulation, which I would like to see some changes.
1: Ethics We have witnessed a progressive lowering of expectations of ethically responsible behaviour across the spectrum from Business to Government. We expect salesman and politicians to be deceitful, for their own purposes, I would like to see that change, by applying real and effective penalties for unethical behaviour, and have watchdog organisations in place to enforce ethical standards.
2: Economy Yes, it is the economy, stupid. Economic competence is always an issue, and coming into a world where changing circumstances have seen all previously sound economic predictors, become less reliable, the importance of this area will only increase.
3: Education With the changing economic focus of the world moving eastwards, we are ideally positioned to take a major role in the booming economies of the asian region. We need to identify which areas of education to fast track, which will facilitate our role as a hub for Asian business activity, probably in Banking/Finance, Management, Advertising, PR, Information Technology, Green Technology/Renewable Energy Resources, etc. By advancing our credentials in these types of ways we can evolve from the role of being little more than a non-value added resource supplier. As I have said before, when a quarry outlives it's usefulness, it becomes a Tip. If we raise our education levels to world's best standards, we will also cultivate a market as an Education supplier for the whole region.
4: Environment We face the greatest environmental challenges ever, we must take a leading role as an innovative, and proactive environmentally sustainable, and responsible society.
So that is a few E's, to get me started with, I will work on other letters of the alphabet at another time.
