You have a very strong message. And you are right if no one is listening, words are just wasted. We need action and funding. The western and more developed parts of the world need to start thinking creatively to provide solutions and resources to help with development. They need to start thinking out of the box. Most of all, we must act as one world where the concerns of one nation are the concerns of every nation.

@onemustaskwhy . I support your view. Our world today is faced with complex problems that in a way need simple solutions but our leaders keep sticking their heads in the ground seeking complex solutions and thats why the masses keep suffering. Its time to be honest and commit to attaining the MDGs.

Great stuff Owen, keep up the sterling work! You make a great Ambassador not only for One Young World, but hopefully the UN as well.

[OwenOmondi]

@OneYoungWorld ..Thanks Skilly. I hope can pass the message to the world on a higher platform like the UN.

[OwenOmondi]

Big thank you to President Obama for the efforts aimed at brigning peace in the middle east. I wish other leaders may join in as well, since the realisation of peace in the middle east will mean alot for the whole world.

May the UN too beef up its efforts in trying to promote understanding in the whole world with the support of its ambassadors.

potentially to do with the lighting issue - get outside to a green area? Shows that you're connected and very much a part of life, instead of couped up inside? UN is about action as much as anything and being outdoors and getting close to issues is a key thing for them I can imagine - hence their peace treaty missions etc ....

[OwenOmondi]

@dickie5678 Thanks..I am sure connected and strongly concerned about the developments in the world today. The light aside..it is the message that I am passing across that matters. cheers.

[OwenOmondi]

Its a good thing to talk, but its another thing to be listened to and taken serious.

My hope is that the leaders can always listen when talked to and act as they hear.

The content is without a doubt very good but the lighting was not very good. we can hardly see your face. otherwise keep up the good work

[OwenOmondi]

@victorongola-Thanks for the comments, I tried my best. About the lighting..it was at work and that is the best room I could get where it was calm, you know with the heavy equipment working around!!. Kind regards.
