"i wanna save the world, but i don't know how"

Tired of saying the above to myself. Doing something about it.

For those like me, who find it difficult to accept their daily jobs while watching people suffer, who count themselves lucky to have more full meals, an education and a choice, I hope I find you. And I hope you find me.

Start by reading this book. I did. Thanks to a brother of mine fighting for the lives of children with heart problems in Tibet.

Go to Kiva.org if you haven't. As we chew up our resources not all of it has gone down the drain or melted down ice caps in vain - Kiva is one of the fruits of development. If Jessica Alba can challenge kevjumbo on youtube, we can now be less pretty stars and give straight to a barber in Tanzania, or a fish seller in Cambodia.


I'm currently reading this book, though I'm certain I'll never finish it. It is neither Lord of the Rings nor Calvin and Hobbes. Without an economics background its like chewing on an old lady's finger (the vegetable). But the overview is amazing. It reports on how giving opportunities, capabilities and second chances to the next generation will determine our future. Got me fired up about Public Policy.


I'm 29 years old. An engineer by training. A typical Malaysian Chinese family business I'm running. This is my attempt at changing my life, in my Tibetan brother's words,

"To do deals for the underprivileged."

This blog will chronicle this journey. I hope you join in.
