And so another day, another painstaking journey across google earth in a virtual hot air balloon in search of a likely plot of land for my Plastics Injection Moulding Company. I don't think I've mentioned my dream yet. Briefly, I managed to get our money out of Bare Fanny Sterns (or whatever it is) before the crisis which Gordon tried so hard to avoid. So it's sitting in a bank looking for somewhere to go. Since I was a child I have loved plastic of all shapes and sizes. In fact one of the nicest things about it is you can mould it into nice shapes of nearly any size. And before any of you write to tell me about my carbon footprint these days you can use recycled plastic and even honey. And that's exactly what I will do. I will turn recycled plastic into Habitat chairs and Save the Children Toothbrushes and create a Foundation for Underprivileged Children with Human Rites. (Geddit? future?)
But I need a place to build my factory where labour costs aren't too high. Hence google earth and my desire to share with you an interesting place I found today. It is a district in Binh Duong province in Viet Nam called Tam Uyen. As you can see it has lots going for it. The most interesting claim was that made on the 'Natural Conditions Page'. The land density numbers and relative moisture are good by any standards, and actually fall in the range I am looking for. But what about the other claim?
That God hardly does anything there. I, as a practising Catholic, find that hard to believe. I know Viet Nam is a Marxist Leninist Country, and strictly speaking, they aren't really believers. But that would be more of a reason for God to visit the place, not stay away. And so I am forced to ask myself - and you, dear readers - is God a Marxist-Leninist? Please vote.
