Posted by Tendai Pinduka on December 10, 2011 at 1:20 AM

Sustainable Development is a broad element that many individuals disagree on its defination and how it is effectively measured. But, what is almost known to everyone is the charecteristics of the good fruits enjoyed from Sustainable Development.

According to UNDP report (1996), Sustainable Development encompasses a leading long and health life, to be knowledgeable, to have access to the resources needed to live a decent standard of life and individuals to be able to participate in community activities.

In otherwords Sustainable Development is equated to total empowerment.That is making local people taking control of their own life, expressing their own demand and choices, and finding their innovative solutions to their own problems.

Money or Capital is a means to Suatainable Development but not an end in itself. Yes, its a necessary but not sufficient condition to guaarantee Sustainable Development.Thus, the major components of Sustainable Development as highlighted above is within one's mind and capacity.

So, ladies and Gentlemen, if Sustainale Development is withi ourselves, "why can't we kick start it now". Nothing is too late or early, but everything is ready when we are ready.

Lets CUT the IM out of the word "impossible" and leave the clear and dynamic word POSSIBLE flying over the world.
