… 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. …

Budget airliner Jetstar sees brisk business ahead

Thom Smyth, The Jakarta Post, Jakarta | Wed, 02/11/2009 12:23 PM  

While Jakarta reports a decline in the influx of visitors, an Australian budget airliner, Jetstar from the Qantas Group that recently launched its first service to Jakarta from Perth in Western Australia, unveiled a "solid performance" in its first three months of operation. 

Jetstar spokeswoman Simone Pregellio said the load factors on both legs of the route were meeting expectations. 

She added that while there was "strong business traffic" (people flying for business reasons), there were more passengers flying into Jakarta from Perth than into Perth from Jakarta. 

"We have been very pleased with the take-up and everything is meeting our expectations," Pregellio said. 

With fares cheaper than their flights to Bali, and almost A$170 (Rp 1.3 million) cheaper than seats on some other airliners flying the same route, they are aggressively marketing the flights in Perth to encourage travelers to visit Jakarta. 

"We hope that with low fares we can stimulate new markets," Pregellio said. 

"The interesting thing with Jetstar is, when it started in Australia, it was attracting up to 10 percent of people who had never flown before. We are finding the same effect as we introduce international services - we are still getting a high percentage of first-time flyers." 

And with the global financial crisis biting into would-be travelers' savings, Jetstar believes these "first-time flyers" are going to be important in stimulating growth worldwide. 

"We certainly approach every route the same way, looking at how we can grow traffic to that particular market," Pregellio said. 

"We are quite excited about introducing ourselves to the Jakarta market. It's a new market for us but one that we think has good potential." 

Pregellio said that while Jetstar worked on cooperative marketing campaigns with government tourism offices, they "had not been approached" by the city tourism agency that had launched tourism campaigns under the Enjoy Jakarta program for the past five years.
