The meaning of Globalization


  

  

A definition of globalization that I can understand and to which I 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,
 
riding in 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 New Zealander

using

American
Bill Gates' 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.....



That, my friends, is Globalization !
