Finally, a definition of globalization that I can understand and to which Inow can relate : 

Question:What is the truest definition of Globalization ? 

Answer :Princess Diana's death.. 

Question :How come? 

Answer : 

An English princess with an Egyptian boyfriend crashes in a French tunnel,driving a German car with a Dutch engine, driven by a Belgian who was drunk on Scottish whisky, (check the bottle before you change the spelling), followed closely by Italian Paparazzi, on Japanese motorcycles; treated by an American doctor, using Brazilian medicines.This is sent to you by a, Canadian using Bill Gates's technology, and you're probably reading this on your computer, that uses Taiwanese chips, and a Korean monitor, assembled by Bangladeshi workers in a Singapore plant, transported by Indian truck drivers, hijacked by Indonesians, unloaded by Sicilian longshoremen, and trucked to you by Mexican illegals.... 

That, my friends,is Globalization
