“ … 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.

Investors reluctant to use Tanjung Wangi seaport

The Jakarta Post, Banyuwangi | Wed, 12/17/2008 11:08 AM | East Java

Investors in the Banyuwangi province in East Java have been reluctant to use Tanjung Wangi as an alternative seaport for exports and imports despite a efforts by the government to promote the port.

Chairman of the East Java provincial branch of Indonesian Trade and Commerce (Kadin) Erlangga said the absence of reliable, fixed schedules for cargo ships and generally poor service at the seaport did not assure traders that their goods would be handled properly and efficiently.

"It is relatively more efficient and quicker for investors in Probolinggo, Jember, Lumajang, Situbondo and Banyuwangi to import goods and export products through Tanjungperak seaport, even though they have to pay additional costs. The traffic through that area was disturbed by the Lapindo mudflow," Erlangga said.

"Exporters want their goods to be shipped smoothly and handled correctly," he told The Jakarta Post in Banyuwangi on Tuesday.

Erlangga said he understood that cargo vessels had irregular schedules at the new seaport because investors and port authorities had offered no guarantees on the amount of goods to be shipped through the port.

The government and state-owned PT Pelabuhan III had to invest more in adequate equipment and facilities, he said, including a standard container terminal and a one-roof service to ensure the proper management of the port.

The seaport, constructed in June 2003, had not functioned optimally since the arrival of foreign and local vessels supplying goods to the region and Bali.

The administrator of the Tanjung Wangi port Bambang Setyo Utomo said he had identified a number of problems which were deterring investors and shipping companies from using the seaport.

"We have identified at least five main factors which have hindered Tanjung Wangi from developing into an alternative seaport. They are the seaport's limited capacity, the absence of a one-roof service for export and import documentation, taxes and excises, limited facilities at the container terminal and limited access to security and legal certainties," he said.

Bambang said the loading and unloading facilities at the container terminal included two each stackers capable of moving 40 tons of material, one forklift, four head trucks, two container slings and a heavy-equipment crane.

He said the seaport could function if all stakeholders, especially Pelabuhan III, shipping companies and exporters and investors, were ready to enhance cooperation and develop the seaport according to international standards.
