The Shanghai Meet

Leaders of big nations like Russia, China, Brazil and India are meeting together at the Shanghai Meet and the assembly represents nearly half the world's population. As usual the stress has been on reviving the global economic slowdown and fighting of terrorism in the world. It will be surprising to record that most of the leaders in the first place do not know where and why the slow down started and when it will end. Most of the economies especially Russia, China and India are having a parallel black money economy which none have any control over to work towards overall economic growth. Also terrorism is an underground subject and countries like Pakistan can only put their hands up and say they have no control over stateless terrorists operating in their country. One wonders whether in other countries terrorist take a license from their respective governments and only in Pakistan they are stateless! While all this show goes on, oil prices have again started to raise and all nations are running for cover to guard themselves against this with or without a meet!
