EntrepreneurialRevolution.city July 2020..If you care about two out of 3 lives mattering who are Asian, nearly 60 years of miracles mapping around worldwide decision-makers considering Japan from 1962 are worth replaying -that's when my father Norman Macrae aged 39 was privileged to write his first signed survey in The Economist -the first 2 quarters of dad's 80+ years of life had been spent **writing unsigned leaders in The Economist (eg as only journalist at Messina's birth of EU) after serving as teenager in world war 2 navigating air places uk bomber command region modern day bangladesh/myanmar - ** following his father who worked for british diplomatic services around embassies in midst of conflict - eg mostow of stalin 1934, last adriatic port jews used to escape hitler 1938 )-during this quarter dad concluded that world wars root cause was the history of empires like britain and japan which had trapped most peoples in poverty, to end war he wanted to mediated loving each other's places, ;peoples and especially children
Norman Macrae, having survived teenage navigation of RAF planes bomber command world war 2 over modern-day myanmar/bangladesh, joined The Economist in 1949, and retired as the deputy editor of what he called "the world's favourite viewspaper" in 1988. During that time, he wrote extensively on the future of society and the impact of technology. Norman foresaw species sustainability as being determined by post-colonial and virtual mapmaking- 5G 4G 3G 2G 1G 0G if 60s tech could race to moon and Moore alumni promised 100 times more machine intel every decade TO 2025, let's end poverty mediating/educating a world of loving each others' children- so that wherever the next millennials girl is born she enjoys great chance to thrive.
Soon Norman was celebrating his wartime enemy's rising engineers and win-win sme supply chains across far east and very concerned that tod down constitutions english speaking nations led by political bureaucrats wasn't fit for entrepreneurial revolution-he co-opted a young romani prodi to translate Economist 1976 ER survey into multilingual formats
Amongst some of his more outlandish claims: that governments would not only reverse the nationalisation process and denationalise formerly private industries, but would also sell industries and services that had been state operated for so long that it seemed impossible that they could be run by private companies. A pioneer before the pioneers, Macrae imagined privatised and competing telecommunications and utility companies improving service levels and reducing prices.
When others saw arms build-ups as heralding World War III, Macrae predicted the fall of the Berlin Wall by the end of the 1980's.

look first at the G8 biggest jigsaw pieces of nearly 200 nations who sought to unite san francisco 1945-until the virus came 2020 was due to be the happy 75th birthday of nations 17sdgs as well as the frontline heroics of medecins sans frontieres and partners in health- coalitions of soft power had never been so urgent to valuetrue. Nature does not play with walls, and other games of externalization at borders -only mistaken male professionals do as they systemically confuse the power of big getting bigger with advancing the human lot for all our children including wherever the next girl is born
In 1945, there were just over 5% of people who lived in usa and Canada- they had twice saved the old world tri-continent of asia Africa and Europe from world wars. Most remarkably usa that in 1939 ranked 17th in terms of international navies on a par with Portugal had become the heart of the wining allied forces. You had the two northern islands at either end of the coastal belts of west Europe and far eat asia who had multiplied so many colonial poverty traps across the Asian 60+% majority of human race , Africa and middle east’s 10%. In trying to compete with uk, France had arguably been most brutal in colonizing med sea Africa, slave trading needed to develop America north wars up from louisana, as well as napoleons war of nations which had sucked in austria hungary , Germany and Russia among others.by start of 20th c Germany without colonies to feed its engineers need for carbon and steel had become bellicose across all its borders. This left less than 2% people in the iced up and largest land mass of all ussr ready to be the victims of stalin as the second most fearsome tyrant the first hal of 20th century grew exponentially. All the while half of humanity – women – were left out of how the word capitalized land and counted productivity even though a deeper look would show that the led with educators like Montessori and health networkers like Florence nightingale, marie curie and indeed the Franciscan role of the clares as community health missionaries- the conscience of mother mary if you will. 9se girlsworldbank.com) There were of course further geographic oddities- only 10% of people lived in the southern hemisphere; less than 1% of peoples lived on what became a quarter of all nations the SIDS- small island developing nations with minimal land resources but huge ocean estates very much dependent on climate, and nature including good human nature of tourism.

japan can be youth's most cooperative nation in 2019 as its people are very free to choose how to design their futures without any interference from the big banking economists who have for decades ruined youth;s happiest opportunities
- its amazing seeing 24 hours a day of content mainly on ordinary people building community things like slow food , ecotourism- japan actually has too few youth and is inviting smart youth exchanges - something it has long done with youth most serious about development challenges -
see eg this nigerian's work on rebuilding health service which would never have happened without studies in japan
OUR FAMILY TREE
five generations of diaspora scots have lived and worked almost everywhere except Scotland (well we use to have a family hamlet to retire to in Isle of Arran)
here's unfinished mission of missionary Norman Macrae 2
my father Norman Macrae 1 my father was a teenager serving in world war 2 in Royal Air Force-stationed in modernday myanmar and bangladesh- he believed wars wasted nations youth and was at his happiest whenever he helped celebrate countries in win-win trades
My fathers work at The Economist from 1962 onwards in case of Japan earned The Emperor's Order of the Rising Sun . My father also wrote at least one of Prince Charles Speeches for a Japan tour. Over 40 years of my own research as an MA in statistics convinces me royal families can now create positive space for climate and other challenges that politicians and pessimistic media cannot
According to my father timelines (started at same time that Gordon More published his exponential rising law) 2020s was always going to be sustainability's make or break decade as more tech brains than human ones started to linkin every place and every innovation for better or worse.
At least while Trump reigns, rew places can linkin better sustainability/community futures for all under 30s especially women than Japan
EconomistDiary.com I see 5 opportunities unique to Japan in the next 18 months climaxing with the olympics
the other four are:
G20
pope francis and faith visits
emperor and royal family futures
the technology networks of Masa-Son
i welcome any joint research linked to above chris.macrae@yahoo.co.uk
I try and connect student clubs to maximise friendship exchanges. Friends and I have been doing this one day a week since my father died in 2010. Several Japanese embassies in Asia have hosted events which helped connect technologists, youth and sustainability goals

2020 10th anniversary remembrances of Norman Macrae 1
over last 10 years there have been many ups and downs in sponsoring 10 young journalists to find out the real stories of girl empowerment in bangladesh - whenever we needed real help it was the japanese embassy that supported us most and helped us as early as 2012 to understand the future of bkash now agreed by many as the benchmark digital bank for the billion poorest
japan can have a great 18 months greeting both elders and youth who ost want to sustain the world - eg g20 osaka july 2018 pope visit probably november 2019 - summer olympics 2020 with jack ma 's friends like softbank helping celebrate youth in every way
here's where we got to in sept 2016 at UN (courtesy of bloggers at economistuniversity.com )
can japan please move forward with those it agrees with from this session f the world of education isnt transformed beyond the over-examined classroom - half of all youth will be
Scotland's most loyal people-centric economist , Gordon Brown, has now assembled 30 national leaders and counting invite families and youth to change the world of education and media - why change if we keep old education half of all youth will be underemployed- lets unite the greatest #learninggeneration - thanks to these leaders justin van fleet
