DIFFICULTIES IN ADDRESSING INTERNATIONAL ISSUES OR ADVISING GOVERNMENTS ON SOUND POLICIES

DIFFICULTIES IN ADDRESSING INTERNATIONAL ISSUES OR ADVISING GOVERNMENTS ON SOUND POLICIES

From my perspectives, addressing international issues or advising governments on sound policies are incredibly hard. If any one found it easy, they are doing it wrong. It requires lot of analytical skills. For instance,

1. It requires serious fact checking.

2. It requires new or more persuasive arguments, persuasive arguments offers different perspectives.

3. It requires clear thesis backed by rigorously marshaled evidence.

4. It requires complete information and being wrong has been consequences.

5. It requires learning to right.

6. It requires integrity, honesty, fair and balance arguments on international issues

7. It requires paternalistic theory consistently with sound arguments

8. It requires collective responsibility in problem solving.

9. It requires good connections and opinions acceptable to leaders.

INDIA'S FARM BILL 2020

To: The Right Hon. Indian Prime Minister Mr. Narendra Modi From: Athinarayanan Sanjeevraja Date: February 15, 2021 RE: India’s Farm Bills 2020 Suggestion: Hon. Prime Minister, let me start paying my respects to you and through you to. India’s farm reforms have been advocated for many decades by the Indian farm economists. In fact, I’m strongly in the favour of the farm reforms when I was in Indian financial market 2007. The farm laws are very good in intent and end ecologically unsound practices.

SUGGESTION TO THE PRIME MINISTER OF JAPAN YOSHIHIKO NODA To: The Right Honorable Japanese Prime Minister Yoshihiko Noda From: Athinarayanan Sanjeevraja Date: 30.09.2011 RE: Japan Energy Policy Suggestion: Changing Industrial Policy Good Morning Prime Minister. BBC World broadcasted your speech regarding alternate energy sources. I agree with your approach to reduce nuclear power in the medium term because having the nuclear reactors in an earthquake prone zone is not safe for the environment or the communities that live near them. Japan is struck in a difficult situation concerning energy. If you want to eventually move away from the nuclear energy, you’ll have to invest more alternative energy sources. If you can’t invest, then it may have to say with a nuclear power for a while. You need make the right decision because source of energy is dwindling. You have one more option which is Japanese people depend on nuclear power with only 1% but 9% including hydroe...

CHINA’S NEGOTIATION WITH MYANMAR MILITARY RULED GOVERNMENT

To: The Right Hon. People’s Republic of China President Hon. Xi Jinping From: Athinarayanan Sanjeevraja Date: April 19, 2021 RE: CHINA’S NEGOTIATION WITH MYANMAR MILITARY RULED GOVERNMENT TO BRING BACK DISCIPLINED DEMOCRACY. Suggestions: Hon. President, let me start paying my respects to you and through you to. There are lots of problems in Myanmar. It is difficult to predict how long this will last? I suspect that General Min Aung Hlaing may form his own political party in a year’s time to contest the election next year or co-opted into an existing party to contest the election next year as a civilian presidential candidate. That is why I most humbly prayed you to support the Myanmar people in their quest for disciplined democracy and human rights. Otherwise, military rule will be continued and we cannot hand back power to the people of Myanmar. The issue might require China cooperation. I am writing to you a...
