the negotiations for the First Nations of Canada Pavilion for the
Millennium Project.
A 60 square meter Pavilion with Native
theme, 12 cultural performances, and Aboriginal arts and crafts to be
exhibited at the pavilion at the Hall of Elegance of the Convention
Centre in Hong Kong.
It is the Future
Backbone of Economy
No sustainable economy can be without global trade. Be it a
First Nation or a city.
Small and Medium sized enterprises are the backbone of any
economy to create jobs, be it the Canadian Economy or the First Nations
Economy.
The strength of
Canada’s economy is totally dependent on Global Trade like that of any
viable economy.
'Distance is dead and geographical
isolation is no longer an obstacle to embrace the global
opportunities.'
The participants will experience global trade, and will
experience in the field how businesses work today on an international
basis. And how they can easily build the same infrastructure for their
own Nations. This is one of the easiest, the fastest and a very
economical way to accomplish the mission of building a vision for the
Nation and then developing a strategic plan.

Building Economic Vision
Distance is dead and geographical isolation is no longer an
obstacle to embrace the global opportunities. The individual is not
limited by his pocket book as much as he is limited by his imagination
and insight.
We live in a world where anything that is imagined is
probably already there or can be made. The world today belongs to the
visionary more than to the logician. This forum and
Asia will be an ideal place to think out of the box and create a vision
for economic foundation of the Nation.
Imagination is the raw material for a Vision.
At the opening of the First
Nations Pavilion in Hong Kong, Tulshi Sen with Consul General of Canada
Colin Russell, Michael Fine, Rick Running Rabbit and performers.
Geographical Isolation is not a Factor anymore An individual living in The Canadian Rockies or
Toronto has equal access to all the opportunities of the world at his
finger tips. Geographical location is no more a hindrance to progress
and prosperity. This retreat will give the participants the insight, the
wisdom of how these ideas can be embedded in their economic Vision to
develop an economic foundation.
Global Careers and Remote Employment
Today an individual can get employment in any major city
and they do not have to commute or live in any particular location.
'They can live in the Nation and work
anywhere in the world and earn more than they ever imagined.'
To know how to take advantage of the opportunities will
require insight into the world economy and how it functions today. This
wisdom cannot be acquired from books. It must be experienced.
Job opportunities need not only be produced in the Nation.
They can live in the Nation and work anywhere in the world and earn more
than they ever imagined.
The participants can formulate ideas while in the retreat
to facilitate training and development in the Nation for enabling
members of the Nation to seek remote employment. They will not commute
they will telecommute.
Globalization of the
First Nations Commenced

Kong. Tulshi Sen, far right, and Chief Chris Shade of
Blood Nation, far left, looks on.
Global Trade Programs
The Leadership/participants will be in a practical position
to vision a strategic plan for building their Nation’s economy with
global reach.
'The First Nations
have resources such as water and minerals and lumber, etc., the
world needs these scarce resources'
Building Global Relationships and Partners
In Today's world businesses are built by collaboration.
These collaborations are usually global in Nature. The Computer that is
being used to write this document was made by many companies in many
countries and finally assembled by one company and delivered by another
company.
Global Trading House
The leadership and the participants will also get a first
hand experience as to how global trading houses work in
Asia. The participants will experience how to engage global trading
houses to work for their Nations to support their own economic
initiatives.
The First Nations have resources such as water and minerals
and lumber, etc., the world needs these scarce resources and these can
be distributed to the Asian Nations from
China through the trading houses.

Youth Programs
Developing Business Orientation Programs
To unleash the creativity of the youth will be the first
priority of discussion, observation and planning in the retreat.
The Trade Fairs will be the laboratory where the formula
will be discussed to be congealed into a practical vision by the
participants and leadership.
In the retreat they will see how the youth of the world are
being empowered today in the global economy.
'This is a world where teen age youths
are becoming millionaires and teen youths in wheel chairs are
supporting a family of a mother and father.'
It is a fact in today’s world that the power of any Nation
depends upon the creativity of their people even more than their Natural
resources.
India and China, the fastest growing economy in the world, have very
little natural resources if any. They are growing faster than any nation
in the world. Why? Because of the creativity of their people which is
their natural resource. The First Nations Leadership and participants
will pickup pointers with which they can facilitate empowering the youth
and the people of their Nations to enhance creativity.

To Adapt and Adopt is the system of success and survival in today’s
world
Psychological Preparation for Building Businesses and Careers
The participants in the retreat will experience how the
rest of the world is coping with change to build people and economies.
This experience will be invaluable for the leadership and the
participants for developing businesses and people. To adapt and adopt
is the system of success and survival in today’s world.
'The world today is a seamlessly levelled economic field.
The world is one economic system. There is hardly any business left that
has no global collaboration.'
Developing Strategies for Transition into Today’s Economy
This retreat will give the leadership and the participants
the first hand experience of how the world is operating today. This
vision of implementing the strategy of change can be formulated from
their own experience in the Retreat.
“Imagination is more important than
knowledge”
Einstein
New World Opportunities
This is a world where a twenty three year old in a few
years time becomes a billionaire.
This is a world where teen age youths are becoming
millionaires and teen youths in wheel chairs are supporting a family of
a mother and father. The world belongs to one who is willing to build a
life and willing to imagine.
The Leadership will be in a position to come back and
stretch the imaginations of the youth to build visions of prosperity and
happiness for themselves and their Nations.
Social Skills and Global Business Development Laboratory
The world today is a seamlessly levelled economic field.
The world is one economic system. There is hardly any business left that
has no global collaboration.
The participants will experience this new culture in one
place under one roof with all the major players of the world. Over
50,000 participants globally are expected to participate.
Protocols and Systems to Lead Nations into the New World
With the proliferation of instant communications through
audio, video and internet and phone system, business deals are made
everyday globally. The Leadership of any nation and any corporation know
that they need to know these protocols and systems to lead their nations
and their corporations.
'The speed of change of today’s world
cannot be put on hold. There are no pause buttons or time out in
today’s world.'
The
New Business Culture
Knowledge of Social Skills and conducting businesses is
absolutely essential for success in building the economic foundation of
the Nation. Large corporations are investing heavily in training their
leaders in this new culture.
Life Skills for Community Building
The participants will participate in the trading halls of
the hub of world economy. This will cut down the learning curve.
The participants will be in a practical position to direct,
instruct, professionals to build a life skills program for their people
in harmony with the culture of their own Nation and the world.
Global Trade Mechanism
This retreat will be of great value to demystify cross
border transactions; to know how import and export transactions take
place.
The participants will be oriented in this enormously
important economic development tool. The participants will see it in
practice while in the retreat as it happens and with the people they
come in contact with in the in the process of their business meetings.
Then the participants will be in a practical position to
organize training programs for the youth in fast tracking the youth into
import export business and building their careers around global trade.
The
Critical Leadership Choice
The question is if the Leadership chooses not to
participate because of cost and their budgetary problems, how would they
plan to build the vision of the Economic foundation? And would it be
more expensive in terms of time. And time is moving at lightening speed.
The speed of change of today’s world cannot be put on hold. There are no
pause buttons or time out in today’s world.
'This retreat is the venue for fast tracking the First
Nations into globalization. The question is not how we Globalize but How
fast can we Globalize? '
Even the strongest economies of the world had to adjust to
this change.
America and Europe changed. Americans and Europeans are learning Chinese
and Hindi. The way business is done today is completely different than
the way it was done five years ago.
Cultural Performers Troupe of First Nations Pavilion of Canada in Hong
Kong Convention Centre
How
we Globalize
This retreat is the venue for fast tracking the First
Nations into globalization. The question is not how we Globalize but How
fast can we Globalize?
Can anyone today imagine a world without the Internet and
the World Wide Web? The same way the participants will know that they
cannot build the same economic plan that they were planning pre-Internet
and pre- World Wide Web Age.
How
To Globalize?
The leadership of the First Nations in this Retreat will be
immersed in Globalization in the midst of a Global Trade Conference and
Trade Fairs.
They will be rubbing shoulders with the giants of the world
who are in the flow of the Globalization process.
The participants will be in a position to know that they
have now a winning edge as they do not have to play catch up anymore as
it was expected in the information age.
The playing field of the world of business has been
levelled and everyone can stand on an equal footing if they have the
knowledge and the drive.
