Open Forum 2008

During the Annual Meeting of the World Economic Forum, the Federation of Swiss Protestant Churches and the Forum will co-organize discussions for the general public. These events will be held in conjunction with the Forum’s Annual Meeting 2008. The Open Forum was first organized in 2003. It offers a possibility for an open debate on globalization and its consequences. In past years, the following overall topics were discussed:

• Globalization or Deglobalization for the benefit of the poorest?
• When is the economy ethical?
• Respecting, crossing and shifting boundaries

In 2008, the sessions of the Open Forum will once again help participants to share their opinion on world major problems, by addressing the following topics:

Thursday January 24

1. 12:45-14:15 – The Comeback of Religion – A Potential Danger for the Secular State?
2. 18:00-19:30 – Private equity and Hedge Funds – Friend or Foe?

Friday January 25

3. 12:45-14:15 – USA – What next after the elections?
4. 18:00-19:30 – What are Russia’s geopolitical ambitions?

Saturday January 26

5. 12:45-14:15 – Do we need Economic Growth to get more Sustainability?
6. 15:30-17:00 – Climate Change Divide
7. 18:00-19:30 – Virtual worlds – Fiction or Reality?

As in past years, the sessions will take place in the main hall of the Swiss Alpine Middle School on Guggerbachstrasse 3, in Davos. The debates will be in German and English with simultaneous translation into both languages. The Open Forum sessions are open to the public, no registration is required and people can get in on a first come first serve basis.

To William Barron Hilton:
My name is Kent G. Anderson with a pending patent FUTURE which involves creating and using ideas related to the future. My vision for FUTURE is a concept similar to a country with the people and their ideas as the global infrastructure. By viewing my web page and searching http://www.uspto.gov–search under trademarks owner Kent G. Anderson will lead to understanding the years of work involved with FUTURE. The FUTURE brand was meant to be shared. I just want to be part of the FUTURE; I am looking for partners or mergers. There are pending oppositions with Pep Boys and Fokker services in Europe. Pep Boys has a tire called FUTURA. They want FUTURE automotive all goods and services. Oppositions have been posted for four years from Pep Boys. Fokkers want the global aircraft goods and services.
Also search European Community Trademark Application No. 003886983 /FUTURE stylized word+device in Classes 3, 9, 12, 35, 36, 37, 38, 41, 42, 43, 44, prior pending rights in the USA year 2000. An misrepresented agreement that was set up by my own lawyer would give Chantecaille the rights to FUTURE when they are abandoned. The goal is to protect the ideas and the concept of FUTURE. These pending rights have great value.
Your interest would be greatly appreciated. Please contact me.
Sincerely,
Kent G. Anderson

One question, two words. Media Reforms?
When do we stop the brainwashing of the world with capitalist propaganda and remove advertising, violence, drugs and alcohol from the airwaves and start putting out educational content?
Dr. Paul Joseph Goebbels
Would be proud of the way the wealthy have taken control of the mass media and are controlling the thoughts and behaviors of billions of people as they sit in front of the TV everyday for hours on end being told what to think, what to believe and what to do.
Try teaching the 12 steps to freedom or perhaps create a condensed version for the attention deficit people.
