"The Recalibration of Awareness – Apr 20/21, 2012 (Kryon channeled by Lee Carroll) (Subjects: Old Energy, Recalibration Lectures, God / Creator, Religions/Spiritual systems (Catholic Church, Priests/Nun’s, Worship, John Paul Pope, Women in the Church otherwise church will go, Current Pope won’t do it), Middle East, Jews, Governments will change (Internet, Media, Democracies, Dictators, North Korea, Nations voted at once), Integrity (Businesses, Tobacco Companies, Bankers/ Financial Institutes, Pharmaceutical company to collapse), Illuminati (Started in Greece, with Shipping, Financial markets, Stock markets, Pharmaceutical money (fund to build Africa, to develop)), Shift of Human Consciousness, (Old) Souls, Women, Masters to/already come back, Global Unity.... etc.) - (Text version)

“… The Shift in Human Nature

You're starting to see integrity change. Awareness recalibrates integrity, and the Human Being who would sit there and take advantage of another Human Being in an old energy would never do it in a new energy. The reason? It will become intuitive, so this is a shift in Human Nature as well, for in the past you have assumed that people take advantage of people first and integrity comes later. That's just ordinary Human nature.

In the past, Human nature expressed within governments worked like this: If you were stronger than the other one, you simply conquered them. If you were strong, it was an invitation to conquer. If you were weak, it was an invitation to be conquered. No one even thought about it. It was the way of things. The bigger you could have your armies, the better they would do when you sent them out to conquer. That's not how you think today. Did you notice?

Any country that thinks this way today will not survive, for humanity has discovered that the world goes far better by putting things together instead of tearing them apart. The new energy puts the weak and strong together in ways that make sense and that have integrity. Take a look at what happened to some of the businesses in this great land (USA). Up to 30 years ago, when you started realizing some of them didn't have integrity, you eliminated them. What happened to the tobacco companies when you realized they were knowingly addicting your children? Today, they still sell their products to less-aware countries, but that will also change.

What did you do a few years ago when you realized that your bankers were actually selling you homes that they knew you couldn't pay for later? They were walking away, smiling greedily, not thinking about the heartbreak that was to follow when a life's dream would be lost. Dear American, you are in a recession. However, this is like when you prune a tree and cut back the branches. When the tree grows back, you've got control and the branches will grow bigger and stronger than they were before, without the greed factor. Then, if you don't like the way it grows back, you'll prune it again! I tell you this because awareness is now in control of big money. It's right before your eyes, what you're doing. But fear often rules. …”

Indonesia Not Ready to Face Aviation Liberalization

Tuesday, 08 May, 2007 | 12:22 WIB

TEMPO Interactive, Jakarta: Indonesia is regarded as not being ready to face the Association of Southeast Asian Nations ASEAN aviation liberalization for cargo in 2008. “Our aircraft for air cargo are still limited, so the (liberalization) is beneficial for foreigners,” Deputy Chairman of Indonesian Forwarder and Expedition Association, Iskandar Zulkarnain, last Thursday (3/5), told Tempo in Jakarta.

According to Iskandar, with liberalization, foreign aircraft are given the right to carry cargo in several cities in Indonesia and disembark in the third country. As a result, air cargo is under the threat of being taken by other country’s cargo aircraft. It is a possibility that the foreign aircraft cooperates with the forwarder and expeditor of the companies of the same country.

He was also concerned that this will make several hub-airports for air cargo in Indonesia inactive, because cargo flight can take goods straight to the location without passing through a hub-airport. Domestic forwarder and expeditor companies will lose the opportunity to distribute goods from small regions to hub-airports. The hub-airports are Jakarta, Surabaya, Makassar, Denpasar and Medan.

However, according to Iskandar, cargo liberalization also has positive effects. “Exporters will be happy,” he said. In the future, exports from Indonesia can cut the costs for they can deliver straight without passing through the hub-airport.

Liberalization for cargo will be put into effect in several cities provided by each ASEAN member. Indonesia provided seven cities: Batam, Balikpapan, Biak, Makassar, Manado, Palembang and Pontianak.

As regards liberalization of passengers, it will be set up among each ASEAN member’s capital city by enacting the Fourth Freedom. This means ASEAN members’ aircraft may embark passengers from a partner country to the country of origin without a capacity limit.

The Indonesia National Air Carriers Association (INACA) also regarded Indonesia as not yet ready in facing aviation liberalization of passengers.
