Finally, a definition of globalisation I can understand and to which I can relate.

Question : What is the truest definition of Globalisation?

Answer : Princes Diana's death.

Question : How come?

Answer :

An English princess with

an Egyptian boyfriend

crashes in a French tunnel,

driving a German car

with a Dutch engine,

driven by a Belgian

who was drunk on Scottish whisky,

followed closely by Italian Paparazzi,

on Japanese motorcycles;

treated by an American doctor, using

Brazilian medicines.

This is sent to you by a New Zealander,

using Bill Gates's technology,

and you're probably reading this on your computer,

that uses Taiwanese chips,

and a Korean monitor,

assembled by Bangladeshi workers

in a Singapore plant,

transported by Indian lorry-drivers,

hijacked by Indonesians,

unloaded by Maltese wharfies,

and trucked to you by a fleet of Pakistani drivers

fueled by the Netherlands,

wearing safety clothing made in China.

That, my friends, is Globalisation
