[Title] => Sugar is the new white gold
[Summary] => As of this writing, crude oil was trading at $70 per barrel. This is a far cry from the $17 per barrel just five years ago.
A lot has changed but the basics of supply and demand are eternal. There has been an increased demand for oil and other commodities, mostly from the two emerging super powers: China and India. The populations of both countries represent close to 40 percent of the whole world. As the middle classes of these countries grow, so do their appetite for crude. These new yuppies now want to drive to their destinations instead of just walking or biking.

[Title] => China in growing pains
[Summary] => China is going through growing pains. For any China manager, two statistics are key these days: 1) average salary growth and 2) turnover. According to a recent article in Businessweek, the average salary growth is running eight to 12 percent from Guangzhou to Nanjing. Turnover for some jobs is now hitting 20 percent. These two key stats have just burst the China myth of unlimited labor supply. Guangdong province, for example, has 2.5 million jobs that need to be filled.

[Title] => Hindsight is 20/20
[Summary] => This is such a great tool. You are always right, there is no risk. And you can always say I told you so. Unfortunately, for decision-makers who have to look forward, this is not a tool we can use, except to learn from our mistakes. (Then again, some columnists can use it to toot their horn, ahem!!)
Hindsight 1. A year ago, HP fired Carly Fiorina and hired Mark Hurd. I thought it was a great move where they got a no-fluff, roll-up-your-sleeve CEO to replace a celebrity CEO. That stock is up 60 percent from last year.

[Title] => Happy Year of the Dog
[Summary] => DFNN.COM
Master Rao of Astrology.com says, "The Dog is an ethical and idealistic sign, and the year that bears its name will also bring increased social awareness and interest in society’s less powerful members. Any tendencies to take, take, take will be replaced by a widespread sentiment of generosity and selflessness. In general, we will all be imbued with the Dog’s keen sense of right and wrong."

[Title] => e-Government
[Summary] => Republic Act 8792, better known as the E-Commerce Law, was signed into law on June 14, 2000 and took effect five days later. One of the key provisions of this law is that the government is mandated to be e-commerce-capable by June 19, 2002. Today is five years and three months later. I would say there are mixed results.

[Title] => There is still hope
[Summary] => Time sure flies. I have been writing this column for more than five years. In my past columns, I reminded my readers that there are lots of opportunities out there but the window may close soon. Today, that window is still there although I don’t believe it will be there for long. Then again with the way our government is going (or not going), exporters of goods and services such as BPO (business process outsourcing) service providers will continue to have their cost lowered in dollar terms (as the peso weakens) and enjoy dollar revenue.

[Summary] => I was invited to be a commencement speaker at an IT school. Unfortunately, I had to decline due to a scheduling conflict. I decided to go ahead and write a commencement address anyway. Here is what I would have said:
They used to say that the only things certain in this world are death and taxes. Today, there are four things certain in my life: death, taxes, computers and change. For those of you who can master the last one, then you are ahead of the game.
