dear XXXL hope all's well with you in sinagpore- could I ask you 4 quick questions (4th connects with Dinesh's diabetes research in dundee)

1 have you heard of www.sdgmetaverseprize.org - its xprize and aifor good new thing -a year round competition - any team can enter by end december- choose one SD goal, viralise story -expected 10000 entrants -that's probably at least 100 each per goal (many more popular goals like 3 health)

2 I am in hong kong next week mainly catching up with friend jeanne lim www.beingai.com- i believe her womens kinndness dao/ntf can be biggest of its kind- her history is ai curating un challenges with sophia robot when she was at hanson- now zbee is her anime version which can replicate anywhere - while sophia took 7 suitcases to appear anywhere

3 jeanne should be in singapore week afterwards 1e about 11th- should i intro you on linkedin just in case there are common interests?

4 next summer glasgow university hosts 265th adam smith moral markets summit - at the 250th in 2008 with dr yunus we launched nearly free nursing college providing scottish trainers to bangladesh- yunus got into political problems- i stand by idea of world being short of at least 30 million last mile health servants; tn 2023 we would like to bring a write up from at least 50 people who care about ai health or eg the lancet idea that teenage health is schools biggest missing curricula; we hope to publish short action cooperation statements for these 50+ people of what they are doing- liz do you have a short action statement and could there be shared interests between you and dinesh who if he has time will be one of the people coordinating the 50 declarations of health actions

dinesh -XXL can correct my old memory but i think inter alia she worked for microsoft in japan for over a decade - then mainly germany; at same time she had to do some ai health for a family member ; now returned to her home space singapore; we virtually met when xprize and un 2020 were hosting ai solutions to covid

XXL having diabetes 1 himself, dinesh in dundee is devoted to community deep data , perhaps biotech and wearable breakthroughs etc to improve lives of all with diabetes- collaborations to community health are probably near top of list of scots at least those I have worked with since 2008 including adam smith scholars- so i also transferred my dads main library from the economist to glasgow U- what with also loss of queen elizabeth - summer 2023 feels like best time scotland can contribute cooperations alumni in line with 2023 being un youth summit future and acceleration of UN2 egov library at https://www.un.org/techenvoy/ and https://datawithpurpose.org/

hong kong and singapore probably way ahead on much of this

all the best chris +1 240 316 8157

i note bloomberg march 2020 refers to a half time 2004 report on doomsday scenario of communities not being prepared to e resilient to virus

GET THE NEWSLETTER

For the prognosticators on the U.S. National Intelligence Council who sat down in 2004 to consider what the world might look like in 2020, the answer hinged heavily on one big question: What did the future of globalization look like?

Their answer: Not great.

By 2020, they predicted, globalization would face a political backlash in a world increasingly plagued by identity politics. Yet if anything was going to really derail economic integration, it would likely be the mass spread of a virulent new disease.

“Short of a major global conflict, which we regard as improbable, another large-scale development that we believe could stop globalization would be a pandemic,” the council warned in a report laying out the findings of its “Project 2020.” A death toll in the millions and a virus that “put a halt to global travel and trade during an extended period” would certainly leave globalization “endangered.”

Just a bit over two months into 2020 and it’s not hard to make the case for why that rings true.

There is an alternative view that holds globalization may actually be a lot more resilient today than it seemed in 2004, in the halcyon days before smartphones had taken over our lives.

But what would it take in the months ahead to get to Doomsday for globalization? It all hinges on the reaction from policy makers to the coronavirus crisis. So here are three things to watch for. If these happen, we should be ready for the shape-shifting in globalization we’ve seen in recent years to morph into a deep freeze.

New barriers to exports. White House trade hawk Peter Navarro, in a recent Financial Times interview, criticized the export controls some countries have placed on medicines and medical supplies like face masks. His motivation may be pure. But Navarro tends to like anything that makes his argument for a shift away from globalization. So what if he used those export controls by others to argue for the U.S. to do the same? Navarro has said he wants to repatriate supply chains for national security reasons and advocated stricter controls on tech exports to China. What if he convinced President Donald Trump to ban exports of not just face masks or medicines but shipments of an eventual vaccine? And other countries followed suit? What if the controls shifted to food stockpiles?
New import restrictions. Chinese trade data for January and February pointed to the damage so far from China’s industrial shutdown last month. Exports were down 17.2% in dollar terms. But what if the U.S. and other countries started limiting imports of goods coming by air and sea not just from China but from South Korea, Italy and other affected countries? And those countries retaliated and did the same? So far the focus on supply chain vulnerabilities has focused on China. But what if all trade was deemed contaminated?
A collapse in global governance. The weekend emergence of a battle between Saudi Arabia and Russia over oil production caused crude prices to tumble dramatically on Monday. What if such discord spills to the G-7 or the G-20? What happens if, driven by fear of a virus, global economic policy makers can’t get on the same page? Or, worse, actively start working against each other in an area like, say, currencies?

Robert Hutchings, the former diplomat and Princeton academic who led the National Intelligence Council as it prepared its 2004 report, said in a recent email exchange that the point they were trying to make was “that globalization is a ubiquitous force that carries with it bad consequences as well as good.”

Ominously, he added: “We particularly wanted to argue that globalization is not irreversible.”
