“ … 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.

Recovery Seen As Indonesian Exports Hit A Record High

Indonesian exports hit an all-time monthly high of $13.3 billion in December as commodity prices rose in line with the global economic recovery, the Central Statistics Agency said on Monday.

“We’ve never achieved a monthly figure of more than $13 billion,” said Rusman Heriawan, the chairman of the agency, known as the BPS. “The highest figure before this was $12.9 billion in May 2008.”

Exports in December jumped 23.9 percent from November and a dramatic 49.8 percent from December 2008, when they plunged 20 percent after the outbreak of the global financial crisis.

Full-year 2009 exports still fell 15 percent to $116.49 billion.

Rusman said exports of key commodities boosted December’s figure. Shipments of crude palm oil increased by $1.1 billion month-on-month, copper rose $284 million and coal exports went up by $268 million. “This is a sign of the global economic recovery,” he said. “Our exports staged a turnaround in the fourth quarter of the year.”

Japan was the biggest buyer of non-oil and gas exports in December, taking $1.25 billion. China ranked second with $1.19 billion and the United States third with $1.04 billion.

December imports totaled $10.33 billion, a 17.2 percent increase from November.

Indonesia’s 2009 trade surplus totaled $19.63 billion, more than double the $7.82 billion in 2008.

Purbaya Yudhi Sadewa, chief economist at the state-run Danareksa Research Institute, said developed economies had recovered significantly in the fourth quarter of 2009. “The strong exports in the fourth quarter and in December showed that the recovery is not just in sentiment but is real,” Purbaya said.

The country’s non-service sector should take advantage of the strong demand created by the global recovery by increasing production, he said.

“Currently, I see that the banks’ intermediation function has not fully recovered. The country’s real [non-service] sector might not take advantage of the global situation if they can’t expand their businesses due to high interest rates applied by lenders,” he warned.

Helmi Arman, an economist at PT Bank Danamon, said the longer-term trend showed that export earnings would continue to rise, driven by demand for commodities such as coal, crude oil and palm oil.

“Such changes in the structure of exports could lessen any deterioration of the trade surplus going forward,” he said. “This is because the need for raw material imports bound for re-export will be lower, compared to if exports were mostly comprised of higher-value added goods, which have higher import content.”
