There are almost 800 crore people allover the world. Of these, nearly half the population is found in East and South-East Asia. There are vast regions of deserts - both hot and cold, forests and high and dry plateau that have no population or scarcely populated. Surprisingly, there are beautiful places that are yet to be explored by man! The life and activities of people of the people range from almost nomadic to tribal, pastoral to farming and industrial; there are backward and progressive people. Now it is difficult to say what holds for these millions of people who are deprived of even basic necessities of life! The future is not all bright. There are many countries waging war with neighbors and some problematic ones are creating problems everywhere inciting hatred and terrorist activities. These rogue countries have to be tamed! It is a difficult proposition to bring the fundamentalists to conference tables and make them realize hatred and strife will not pay in the long run. If people are to be happy, the only way is peace and mutual trust and help! The Year 2020 and the next ten years are crucial for many to survive since there are large scale migrations, illegal entrants to not only their neighboring, but far off countries, too! There are refugee taking risk of crossing seas seeking new homes. The entire world is in a turmoil and, war is no solution. Advancement in science and technology will make little dent in this situation.
