“ … Here is another one. A change in what Human nature will allow for government. "Careful, Kryon, don't talk about politics. You'll get in trouble." I won't get in trouble. I'm going to tell you to watch for leadership that cares about you. "You mean politics is going to change?" It already has. It's beginning. Watch for it. You're going to see a total phase-out of old energy dictatorships eventually. The potential is that you're going to see that before 2013.

They're going to fall over, you know, because the energy of the population will not sustain an old energy leader ..."

Kryon Q&A

Question: Dear Kryon: I live in Spain. I am sorry if I will ask you a question you might have already answered, but the translations of your books are very slow and I might not have gathered all information you have already given. I am quite concerned about abandoned animals. It seems that many people buy animals for their children and as soon as they grow, they set them out somewhere. Recently I had the occasion to see a small kitten in the middle of the street. I did not immediately react, since I could have stopped and taken it, without getting out of the car. So, I went on and at the first occasion I could turn, I went back to see if I could take the kitten, but it was to late, somebody had already killed it. This happened some month ago, but I still feel very sorry for that kitten. I just would like to know, what kind of entity are these animals and how does this fit in our world. Are these entities which choose this kind of life, like we do choose our kind of Human life? I see so many abandoned animals and every time I see one, my heart aches... I would like to know more about them.

Answer: Dear one, indeed the answer has been given, but let us give it again so you all understand. Animals are here on earth for three (3) reasons.

(1) The balance of biological life. . . the circle of energy that is needed for you to exist in what you call "nature."

(2) To be harvested. Yes, it's true. Many exist for your sustenance, and this is appropriate. It is a harmony between Human and animal, and always has. Remember the buffalo that willingly came into the indigenous tribes to be sacrificed when called? These are stories that you should examine again. The inappropriateness of today's culture is how these precious creatures are treated. Did you know that if there was an honoring ceremony at their death, they would nourish you better? Did you know that there is ceremony that could benefit all of humanity in this way. Perhaps it's time you saw it.

(3) To be loved and to love. For many cultures, animals serve as surrogate children, loved and taken care of. It gives Humans a chance to show compassion when they need it, and to have unconditional love when they need it. This is extremely important to many, and provides balance and centering for many.

Do animals know all this? At a basic level, they do. Not in the way you "know," but in a cellular awareness they understand that they are here in service to planet earth. If you honor them in all three instances, then balance will be the result. Your feelings about their treatment is important. Temper your reactions with the spiritual logic of their appropriateness and their service to humanity. Honor them in all three cases.

Govt to continue policy to limit of operational ships` age

Jakarta (ANTARA News) - The Transportation Department will continue implementing its policy to limit the age of operational ships in the country to a maximum of 25 years, a spokesman said.

"But the policy will be applied in a flexible way," M Harijogi, director general of sea transportation, said here Monday.

The policy would also be executed with due consideration of a ship`s actual condition and the way in which it was maintained, he said.

"This means a ship that has reached the maximum age limit will first be subjected to a comprehensive inspection. If the vessel proves to be still in good condition, it will be allowed to remain in service," he added.

But if the ship is in bad condition, it will definitely be prohibited from further transporting people because of the safety risks involved, Harijogi said.

He explained the department had not yet issued a relevant regulation as the matter was still being studied. In addition, the rule would be applied only to passenger ships.

The maximum age limit for ships would be part of a plan to review the existing rule on the age limit of aircraft which is now deemed necessary in light of the recent series of transportation accidents in the country.

Meanwhile, the Indonesian National Shipowners Association (Inaca) has rejected the government`s plan to put a limit on the age of ships that can be operated.

The measure would curtail the national shipping industry`s capability to invest in new ships, Inaca said, adding that accidents had nothing to do with the age of ships.

Harijogi admitted that a ship`s age was more likely to affect its performance in terms of engine power, speed, and fuel consumption (than its safety).

The factor that was directly related with a ship`s safety was its maintenance but then it was also common knowledge that Indonesian shipping companies` performance in the maintenance of their ships was still low, Harijogi said.
