saraya - win-win japan borneo uganda -abedmooc case catalogue 5.5 sanitation (WASH) community to community
from 1970 saraya became famous in japan- it innovated palm oil cleaners for kitchen use- these are biodegradable unlike petroleum based cleansers
but around 2002 the company was inundated with reports that its sourcing of palm oil from borneo was killing elephants whose palm tree habitat was now being changed as the worlds epicentre of palm oil production; saraya designed a new supply chain including purchase of its own palm tree farms made elephant friendly and so returning its high reputation across japanese society
in 2009, saraya's busneess in uganda started handwashing campaigns to improve the nations sanitation reducing infant mortality by half in under a decade (along with parallel efforts brac uganda)
saraya wanted to make its product massively affordable; to do this it started social business modeling- it recognised that urganda's sugar cane industry could do much better for uganda if it recycled sugar cane waste into ethanol sanitisers; by going into this social business saraya scaled handwash products; as well as reduction of infant deaths, ebola in its neighbor the congo has not come to uganda and so far covid in uganda is less than other neighboring countries- saraya is not claiming that uganda will lead africa in beating covid- bur it is proud that community handwashing sanitation social businesses contribute to minimising diseases, local community businesses empowering women, childrens education, climate solutions shared from community to community

60 years ago my father norman macrae in the economist celebrated the rise of his wartime foe- dad was a teen in bomber command over modernday myanmae- by1960 advances on the slide ruler, minature devices and in measuring things were coming from japans microelectronic engineers, bullet trains which could mean either american coast could twin cities at maximum 4 mile railride, advances in mechanical diggers, as well as containerisation vital to just in time sme supply chains, these were solutions that could reverse how mainly british empire had designed trade and infrastructure to extract from the whole of asia- they were as integral to celebrating hopes of the 1960s as telecom satellites and moon races and from 1964 live worldwide sports out of tokyo olympics - livesmatter the way kobe.mba or naosaka.com fans would linkin the world over
none of the g8 with the exception of japan has advanced the sdgoals as worldwide solutions youth needed to celebrate since signing up to them in 2015-so please tell us events we can zoom into with japans common sense 1 nov 2019 to feb 2021

why do we think the most dangerous norther winter is looming? well here are 3 lessons from trump oct 2020 which transpired out of the town i live n bethesda md -and here our issues our outofbeltway friends love to zoom with anyone wishing to share live saving knowhow
the story of the human race so far- 2 out of three people are asian-norther empires mainly britain trapped most continental asians in poverty ysing first comers advantages of machine age that emerged from glasgow u 1760s watt and smith
japans first 45 years of 20th c also did terrible harm to neighboring asians but from 1945 it shared every solution it found including borlaugs end starvation od a billion people with better local rice productivity, immunization sxience, better engineering from deming
japan stimulated the race to multiply 100 fold more tech analytics every decade gravitated by intel and alumni of silicon chip valley- just when massive local data is beamed up to the clouds in ways that sdg coalitions could share life critical solutions the planet over- other forces are being spun ruining climate, ignoring livesmatter failing to priortise risks like pandemics so clearly understood by gates, google and bush in 2005
=====================================
i hope abe's successor works with him behind the scenes- through the 2010s i always found abe the leader to read first on any global crisisthe world as well as japan so much needed worldwide celebrations of the new Reiwa era to blossom: imagine if the olympics had relaunched a livesmatter contract with all youth aka kobe.mba; coalitions to transparently form around osaka track and society 5.0 - a bridge with world economics forum leadeship of industrial revoltion 4 through 5 regional hubs- sa francisco, tokyo, being, delhi and geneva -all could have streamed rays of light into glasgow cop26
two thirds of the world people are asian- in the last 75 years every asian development has gained from good relations with japanese as the first in the world to become massive practical networkes of
demings engineering knowledge
borlaug's solutions for local food security
various barefoot medic movements led by epidemiologists
normanmacrae.net - my father norman macrae order of the rising sun. signed library in the economist was limited to one survey a year and then only from his 17th year at the journal- it began with consider japan 1962 and continued to review how to reverse across asia's two thirds of humanity how to reverse the old world colonial mess led by the world's worst ever corporation the east india company, evil capitalism out of london that insisted the far east accept opium as a currency- from 1964 prince charles was europe's first leader to celebrate relations with japan both at royal family levels and in inviting sony to inward invest
if the west had helped japan rebuild trust across those people it hurt up to 1945, adam smiths dream that the best of humans and machines could go west of scotland through usa and asia as an opposite world trade model to the east india company could have restarted at the same tine as the world leapt forward with 100 times moore tech each decade after the moon race decade to these 2020s
those who have spent time reading smith will know that as soon as he saw james watt first engines in the world he spent the rest of his life mediating the united states of english speakers; in his time scotland, ireland, and english royalty if they did not want to go the way of french royalty should all want to be states of a union led out of philadelphia- there was only one condition- the unions constitution should not only repeal slavery but recompense every owner of a business model -eg plantations- which depended on slavery or low cost labor- imagine smithian economics linking in scots irish new england boston new amsterdam/york philadelphia- continuing down us east coastal belt across georgia, to southern belt, alabama and french purchase louisana up the heartland to the great lakes across to west coast usa to hawaii and then to japan and through to asians two thirds of humans at the mid east landbridge through to africa as well as west asia bridge at turkey to south est and central europe- at some stage the northern roof of the old world ie russia could have become much more like canada because of a united asia as well as a united america- united around all lives matter- interestingly the conscious natural movements of the east have far less problems with skin color; and unlike golden rule religions are grounded in community/natural observation
from my sample of 1 being among 7.5 billion. asians have inspired me to celebrate all lives matter far more than any western movement i have been able to search as a diaspora scottish child growing up in the london of the 1950s
of course i would love to hear what cultures help you translate all lives matte everywhere you connect chris.macrae@yahoo.co.uk -scots as a majority diaspora nation are eternally optimistic some would say naive- why not celebrate the best of all peoples skins languages genders homeland duversities not the least common denominator
thank you abe and i expect i had much more to learn than my any english report of mine can convey
