The 512 earthquake at Sichuan may have been devastating to Sichuan people but we have seen how strong the will to survive out rule the 72 hours limit as far as 192 hours still survivals were found. How dieing parents save children with their body, how many teachers forgo their search of their own relatives but stay on to protect the school children, many nurses, soldiers sacrifices their own relatives rescues but to stay on the sites to rescue and look after others earthquake victims. How many school children stay calm and strong amidst the devastating destruction of the entire provinces, villages and town. Some even help to rescue their peer in rumble and to encourage the injured friends. The one heart to rescue survival irregard to time made the ultimate differences that move the world to embrace the quick and fast remedial action taken by the China government, together with their premiers going down on sites to give support and direction. Even many Generals lead their armies to directly involved in the rescuce work which were very dangerous during the many tremor still going on.
The Sichuan earthquake need more emergency tents, food supply, mineral water, medical treatment aids and more forklifts , evacuation tools are needed from donations from all over the world. Money donations are needed to rebuild infrastructures, telecom communication lines, estates, schools, medical centre, the town facilities which may take as far as 10 years to rebuild fully.
It’s going to be a difficult time for China to rebuild Sichuan for the next few years ahead as the size of the terrain to rebuild is vast and difficult due to the hilly terrain. The aftermath of the victim pschology are by far the most difficult to overcome.
For the coming Beijing Olympics , the world should support and help donate to the Sichuan earthquakes. Let pray for the decease victims and also for the Myammar cyclone victims.

India poor infrastructures
India though is on the rise economically but its infrastructures are far too behind time especially all the Estate property, commercial building need rebuilding to compete that with the modern city in most Asia countries and Western countries. Its road and transport infrastructures are also badly design and need big re-shape to reduce congestion and to transform itself to better in line with its rising economic power to par that of China and Russia and other part of Asean and Middle East countries.
Desert Storm
Countries like those in Africa and Middle East countries with big desert landscape will eventually be capitalised first by Europe countries . Below the mass area cover by desert sand are big resources like sands, precious metal and possibly diamond, oil or other materials that can be transformed into other resources use. These likely to be future target by countries lack of natural resouces like Japan and the natural resources depleted Europe.
Middle East transformation
As oil will likely to be depleted in time to come, Middle East countries will build more infrastructures for other wealth building business need beside Oil business to complement the lack of Oil supply in the near futures.

1. A rising Asia market .Rising Asia need not be affected by noise from US fear and bear sentiment, as Asia economies fundamentally are doing well and the economy have already diversified into various region of investments. We are also seeing big growth from China, India ,Middle east and Russia which brought about much investment opportunity for other countries. These Asia growth will eventually help US economy and it will be good, the growth momentum in Asia will benefit the world.2. The impact of subprime crisis.The subprime issue will eventually rebound, ie. The US real estate market will rebound eventually with more international buyers moving in to invest in the low pricing real estate markets and couple with the advantage of lower US exchange rate it time for a good buy.3. Energy and food crisis.The rise in energy and oil prices will affect transportation especially in the airline which may force airline to either maximise the flight capacity or take other cost cutting measure. As for food crisis there is no famine or adverse weather worldwide that impact crop and agriculture volume. The rising prices will look set to cool down over a couple of month later. However the cyclone disaster in Myammar and earthquake in China were misfortune. For the coming months and to next few year we likely to see rebuilding infrastructure the biggest urgent need, rice and agricultural producers countries should not be overly concern about stocking up rice or other agriculture crop to profit. A little inflation may be a concern in the short term but currently life saving is more urgent. Certainly the crisis countries need more donation and help. 4. Year of volatilityWhether be it low sentiment or bear trend expectation, it certainly impact the short term investment but let not forget the longer trend. Expect to see brighter sunshine and less cloud by next year.
