“ … 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.

Indonesian Exports Surge in October to Highest Level in 2009

Indonesia’s exports rebounded strongly in October, growing on an annual basis for the first time in 12 months, the Central Statistics Agency said on Tuesday.

The country’s exports in October totaled $11.88 billion, a 22.7 percent increase over September, and a 10.1 percent rise over October last year.

The statistics agency, also known as the BPS, said non-oil and gas exports in October contributed the most to the increase in overall exports.

Non-oil and gas exports totaled $10.16 billion in October, an increase of 25.5 percent from September and 14.1 percent over the same month last year.

Electrical equipment, coal and rubber were the leading products.

“Exports in October were the highest so far in 2009,” said BPS chairman Rusman Heriawan.

It was the second time this year that monthly exports breached the $10 billion level, he said. Exports rose above $10 billion in August before declining in September due to the Idul Fitri holiday.

However, exports for the first 10 months of the year were still down 22.3 percent compared with the same period in 2008, with non-oil and gas exports down 15.1 percent.

Singapore-based Citigroup economist Johanna Chua said a low base number partly explained the sharp year-over-year rise in October, noting that the global financial crisis was setting in last October.

The results were largely boosted by non-oil and gas exports that outperformed “consensus expectations for a moderating 5.1 percent contraction,” she said.

“Non-oil and gas exports picked up month-on-month for all destinations, with the largest gains registered for non-oil and gas exports to Japan, South Korea, the United States, Thailand, Taiwan and Australia, as consumer and business confidence gained ground,” Johanna said.

The BPS said imports also increased on a monthly basis. In October, imports stood at $9.47 billion, up 11.16 percent from the previous month.

Non-oil and gas imports stood at $7.55 billion in October, up 22.9 percent from September.

Meanwhile, imports in the first 10 months of the year totaled $77.75 billion, down 30.8 percent compared with the same period last year.

Non-oil and gas imports in the 10-month period reached $62.7 billion, down 25.6 percent.

As exports expanded, the country’s trade surplus widened to $2.41 billion in October, from $1.27 billion in September.

“We expect a narrowing in the trade and current account surpluses toward year-end as a pick-up in Indonesia’s domestic demand leads to a more sizeable imports improvement,” Chua said.
