Empires of the industrial age peaked by 1940s. This left
fortunate people in about a third of the world up to 200 times better off than a century and a half earlier. Since 1972 we
have been mapping a different revolution- one which everyone is 200 times better off starting with the poorest. But it depends
on an education Beyond The Classroom (BTC). There can be as many teachers as ever but less than 10% will resemble today's
classroom teachers, and probably less than 2% will resemble todays college professors. Nations that dont make this chnage
will become undeveloped however rich they once were. Exploring who will help youth with this chnage is the purpose of our
web and al the friends we linkin. Join us chris.macrae@yahoo.co.uk

Alibaba founder Jack Ma unveils ambitious planMission: 100 million new jobs By
Dana McCauley
He
already runs the world's biggest online shopping company, but Alibaba founder Jack Ma is not satisfied. The Chinese billionaire has unveiled an
even more ambitious plan to expand the company's reach across the globe, creating 100 million new jobs and transforming the
global economy to create a more equitable world. It may sound pie-in-the-sky, but the goal forms part of mission statement
of the US$261 billion company's visionary executive chairman. In a letter to shareholders, Ma outlined Alibaba's achievements of the
past financial year - including a gross merchandise turnover of more than $195 billion (1 trillion RMB), an "unprecedented"
figure - before looking to the future. "We have more than 430 million annual active buyers, which means
one out of every three individuals in China has made a purchase on our retail marketplaces," Ma wrote. But, he said, while proud of Alibaba's
online shopping achievements, "we want to do far more", saying that the benefits of globalisation had not been spread
evenly, but that "digital disruption will bring us closer to a level playing field for young people and small businesses". "We
are not merely trying to shift buy/sell transactions from offline to online, nor are we changing conventional digital marketing
models to squeeze out a little additional profit," he wrote. "We are working to create the fundamental digital and physical
infrastructure for the future of commerce, which includes marketplaces, payments, logistics, cloud computing, big data and
a host of other fields." The Alibaba group of companies, founded in 1999, accounts for 60 per cent of all
Chinese online sales, and this year overtook Walmart as the world's largest retailer. It has made Ma the second richest man in Asia, with a net worth of US$28.5 billion. THE NEW 'NATURAL RESOURCE' It's through cloud computing that Alibaba aims to expand its reach, and the company has been investing in
the technology as part of a strategy that sees shoppers' data as the contemporary equivalent of mineral riches. "Over the next 30 years, with computing
power as the new 'technology breakthrough' and data as the new 'natural resource,' the landscape of retail, financial services,
manufacturing and entertainment will be transformed," Ma wrote, forecasting a decades-long period of transformation. "The internet revolution is a historical
inflection point, much like when electricity was introduced, and it may have an even greater impact," he predicted. Alibaba's
mission, he said, was to "empower merchants with the ability to transform and upgrade their businesses for the future"
and "help companies all over the world to grow". "We believe, the commerce infrastructure we have created in China
- marketplaces, payments, logistics, cloud computing and big data, all working in concert - can be applied on a global scale
to lift up small and medium businesses and ordinary consumers around the world." Eight years after launching, Alibaba Cloud
hosts 35 per cent of Chinese websites, while delivering cloud computing and big data services. '100 MILLION NEW JOBS' Ma said Alibaba was constantly adapting to the changing e-commerce environment,
as staying at the forefront of innovation was key to its continued success. "In the coming years, we anticipate
the birth of a re-imagined retail industry driven by the integration of online, offline, logistics and data across a single
value chain," he said. "With e-commerce itself rapidly becoming a "traditional business,"
pure e-commerce players will soon face tremendous challenges." A shift to mobile revenue was one such
change, he said, with mobile climbing from a single-digit percentage to three-years of total revenue from Alibaba's Chinese
retail marketplaces, in the space of two years. "This is why we are adapting, and it's why we strive to play a
major role in the advancement of this new economic environment," Ma said. Innovations like Alibaba's Qianniu app,
which helps online businesses to improve sales and marketing while enhancing efficiency, were an example of the type of projects
the company aimed to focus on. "In 20 years, we hope to serve two billion consumers around the world, empower
10 million profitable businesses and create 100 million jobs," Ma said, adding: "This will be an even more difficult
journey than the one behind us." - news.com.au LISTEN : Newstalk ZB Political Editor Barry Soper speaks to Andrew Dickens on KPMG Early Edition Mr Ma
- who's worth around $50 billion - met with John Key in Beijing late yesterday. He made his money through founding the
online commerce platform Ali Baba. Standing alongside the Prime Minister, he heaped praise on the country,
which he says is loved by many Chinese. "At least 20 of my colleagues retired from Ali Baba. They're
all very young, in their 40s, they all go to New Zealand." "I asked what they do
apart from the golf and green things and they say it's the people there." It wasn't all
social, with the Chinese billionaire also talking business. Jack Ma told the entrepreneurs luncheon Kiwi businesspeople
find it difficult to access the Chinese market. Mr Ma said he wants to make that easier with his
multi-platform organisation. "We have Ali Baba University. We would either have courses in
New Zealand or invite the entrepreneurs in New Zealand to stay in China for two weeks for training." "The
second is that we're going to open an Ali Baba business embassy next year in New Zealand." John Key
is in China meeting business and political leaders.
Innovation is a key driver for economic development and social progress and small business is one of the best ways
for people to express their willingness and capability to innovate. Pervasive business ownership has, therefore, been
the foundation in many societies for the continued improvement of people’s economic wellbeing. In the People’
Republic of China, however, private business ownership was prohibited between 1957 and 1978. Productive innovations were extremely
restricted and as a consequence, China’s economy was on the verge of collapse by the end of 1978. The Chinese people
had suffered a historic setback. Alibaba’s growth, driven by unleashing grassroots entrepreneurship, has become an exemplar of China’s
innovation in the 21st century. Started by 18 young people in 1999, Alibaba has grown into a giant global internet platform
and has made many invaluable contributions to China’s progress. Highlighting the importance of pervasive small
business ownership in unleashing grassroots innovation and improving economic wellbeing, Professor Lowrey will discuss Alibaba’s
innovative strategies and explain the economic theory behind its inspiring success. Dr. Ying Lowrey is Professor of Economics at Tsinghua University
and Deputy Director of the Tsinghua Research Center for Chinese Entrepreneurs, and a member of the Academic Committee
for Alibaba Group Research Institute. Her teaching and research interests include economics of innovation and entrepreneurship
in the internet and platform economy, the modern microfinance market, business demographics, characteristics of business
owners, and the role of free enterprise and competition in the macroeconomy. She received her economics Ph.D. from Duke University, economics
MA from Yale University and mathematics BS from Wuhan University. Before joining Tsinghua University in 2012, she served
as senior economist at the Office of Advocacy, U.S. Small Business Administration and has taught economics at George
Washington University and San Diego State University. Selected publications
 Founder of Ali Baba commits his work for Chinese on internet to generate 100 million microentrepren…chris macraeNov 23, 200950 views Founder of Ali Baba commits his work for Chinese on internet to generate 100 million microentrepreneur
jobs in 2010s - who else would you vote at the centre of 100 million job creation leagues? =====================update
sumer 2016: unlike oiher years spent with bangaldeshi inspired youth, i spent 2015-2016 mainly with a class of chinese
female students - what brilliant minds and tirelss sources of human energy - i hope this summary of why the whole world can
celebrate what jack ma is doing is near to the mark - but as always look forward to editing any errors which are mine alone chris.macrae@yahoo.co.uk washington dc text 240 316 8157 ====================== was english language tutoring
In 1995 he was sent to the usa on an exchange mission and encountered the worldwideweb - then unknown in China. He
determined the www would be the biggest job creating innovation of his (or his generations) life and hopefully of every Chinese
entrepreneur he could valuably link into.
Over the next 15 years his wizard coding teams went from something that
was little more than an electronic yellow pages for small businesses to conceiving sustainability generation's 2 greatest
retailing platforms china or the world may ever have seen..
the taobao platform is the most valuable job creating
concept retailers have ever mediated because it reverses the western trend of globalisiation of retailers, bankers and big
corporations squeezing out local and small enterprises from having a market; how taobao did that is an extraordinarily detailed
story but note how Ma was concerned to ensure even the most cut-off of Chinese villagers could start up on tao bao (rural
ecommerce is one of the innovations that Ma has led the www purpose to linkin)
His other mall was pitched at the
more usual high cost fashions of big global merchandisers. Because of complex property laws in chinese cities, most expensive
retailers are not much of a joy to shop in. So ali baba created a lifestyle -eg celebrate singles day 11/11 shopping virtually
rather than the physically exhausting interaction in The West's biggest shopping days of the year)
SO 365/24/7
consumers of ali baba can choose who they value developing most with their purchasing power as well as searching merchandise
with global image or local cultural joy
Alibaba has become china's and probably the word's largest retailing channel.
It does this with next to no merchandise but brilliant coding so that every store front on its platforms delivers with equal
reliability. Hunting out exactly how Ma forms partnerships so that big data analysis benefits the smallest enterprises and
most local consumers ought to be a job of whomever is sustainability goals greatest economist.
Intriguingly to
ensure he could compete with the chinese internet companies that raced to co-create the www that Ma had opened space for in
china, Ma IPO'd Alibaba through a process 2010-2015 while developing his secret sustainability weapon under private ownership.
AlIpay is china's number 1 financial inclusion delivery system and maybe global youth most humanly productive coding achievement
to date.
Comparing china's top 10 internet properties with the west's is very interesting. Are the consuming behaviours
on ali baba more sustainable than those on amazon or ebay or paypal? Are the learnng behaviours on baidu more sustaining of
youth than on google or coursera or microsoft's linkedin. Time will tell but note how speaking english, chinese and coding
(as well as mother tongue) are probably what educators anywhere on planet earth should NOW be most valuing their global youth's
future freedom to thrive entrepreneurially around.
