"Look how many countries in Africa, for example, depend on the income from oil exports," Schwab said in an interview ahead of the WEF's 46th annual meeting, in the Swiss resort of Davos. "Now imagine one billion inhabitants, imagine they all move north." Whereas much of the discussion about commodities has focused on the economic and market impact, Schwab said he's concerned that it will also spur "a substantial social breakdown." That fits into what Schwab, the founder of the WEF, calls the time of "unexpected consequences" we now live in. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "SERBIAN NEWS NETWORK" group.
