DOES WORLD HARMONY RENAISSANCE HAVE A CHANCE

Wall Street Journal Op-Ed special feature submission

Dear Mr. Varadarajan;

I have been writing timely articles about World Harmony

Renaissance that have been published by Xinhua net, other
U.S. main stream media and also for publication by NABE
Feb.2007 Conference. Some of the earlier published
articles were compiled in a book titled China's Harmony
Renaissance- What the world must know, published by
World Harmony Organization.

Since the publication of my world harmony renaissance

articles and book, I have received many comments and
questions from meetings, emails and private discussions.
As a result I am working on another book that will be titled
World Harmony Renaissance, Hope for a More
Understanding World. It will be my answers and comments
to the worldwide response to my publications.

The Iraqi Study Group Report headed by Baker and

Hamilton included the effort of many experts and
prestigious think tanks such as Institute of Policy Studies
and American Enterprise
Institute. The report suggested major change in US foreign
policy direction by opening dialogues in Middle East and
include Iran and Syria. It fell short of suggesting
consultation in
harmony. All countries old and new have their different
historical background and culture that in
part explain that East is East and West is West. It seems
that the East is more ready to talk about harmony
renaissance and the West favors the promotion of
democracy as world solution. Ever since the enlightenment
period of 1600 the West has managed the promotion of
democracy. Democracy is well known today and it affected
the world in a profound way.

Does world harmony renaissance have a chance on world

stage facing the powerful Western democracy institutions,
NGO’s and dominant media? This is an important and
timely question that is of great worldwide interest. The
enclosed paper titled “Does world harmony renaissance
have a chance on world stage?” is my innovative answer to
this pressing and stimulating question. I am submitting
this paper for your publication as my first choice. Please let
me know at your earliest convenience so I can redirect it
for immediate publication.

Season’s greetings and harmony to all!

DOES WORLD HARMONY RENAISSANCE HAVE A CHANCE

ON WORLD STAGE( By Francis C. W. Fung, Ph. D.)

Does world harmony renaissance has a chance on world

stage(facing the powerful Western democracy institutions,
NGO’s and dominant Western media)?

I agree there are many Western Universities and think

tanks of high caliber specialize in world affairs. Despite the
abundance of research and foreign affairs publication
pouring out of the Western media there is still yet any
significant reference to world harmony renaissance as
solution to world conflicts. However, we hear Asian leaders
including China's president Hu Jintao and the new UN
Secretary General Ban Ki - Moon start to mention harmony
as world solution. President Hu Jintao in a major 60th UN
anniversary speech and on other important world forum
announced World harmony as solution to world conflicts.
Ban Ki-Moon on Christmas eve, 2006 amid pressure from
George Stephanopolis to support US foreign policy
responded by saying the one crucial point of that
interview. What he said was; "I am interested in working
for harmony." It is no coincidence he also meant harmony
as solution of world problems.

The Iraqi Study Group Report headed by Baker and

Hamilton included the effort of many experts and
prestigious think tanks such as Institute of Policy Studies
and American Enterprise Institute. The report suggested
major change in US foreign policy direction by opening
dialogues in Middle East and include Iran and Syria. It fell
short of suggesting consultation in harmony. All countries
old and new have their different historical background and
culture that in part explain that East is East and West is
West. It seems that the East is more ready to talk about
harmony renaissance and the West favors the promotion of
democracy as world solution. Ever since the enlightenment
period of 1600 the West has managed the promotion of
democracy. Democracy is well known today and it affected
the world in a profound way.

A country can have democracy but not necessary harmony.

But a country has harmony has its own democratic
consensus. Peace is only temporary if harmony cannot
prevail. Harmony practice is necessary and urgent to
assure stability and sustainable development. The best
system for any country is its own harmony system. On the
present worldwide consumer rush the world will face great
resources shortage sooner than we think. World harmony
also embraces ecology and resource conservation.

Harmony renaissance will come because it is will develop

from the order of nature and the order of nature is
harmony. Earth quakes, typhoons and tsunamis are all
natures imbalances that are caused by pressure and
temperature differences. The end results of these
catastrophes are the calm of nature. Human has superior
intellect. Wars created by ideology struggles can be far
more destructive than nature’s calamities. We think we can
control nature but human activities obey the same order of
nature.

Harmony and democracy will be equally accepted by the

world. Just as harmony promotes ecology, harmony will
surely promote democracy also. Harmony is the ultimate
consensus of nature and mankind, it resolves all dynamic
imbalances. When dynamic balance is achieved harmony is
 reached. As in fluid mechanics one must look for dynamic
balance in harmony. This is beautifully represented by the
Daoist life sign.

As a fluid mechanics major I liken harmony to water. It

sustains life. Where there is water there is life. If not
managed well it will soon be in shortage. It seeks harmony
and tranquility when it is in balance. It flows freely and fills
all reservoirs to full when available. When contained it
builds up pressure until it is relieved. When imbalance is
allowed to built, it can cause the greatest upset if not
addressed. It can float and sink a boat. Given time it can
bore through the hardest rock. It is unyielding and
triumphs over force. The essence of harmony is tolerance,
accepting, respect, equality and patience. It is the ultimate
of human virtue and the very nature of the dark energy
that is the universe. www.worldharmonyorg.net
