Trans Global Highway - Connecting more than 100 countries

Linking Five Continents and More Than 100 Nations, The Trans Global Highway would physically link by highways and by rail transport, all continents and major population centres, with the present exception of Australia, which, in the future, may be linked via very long suspended, pre-formed, suspended underwater tunnels from extending from the Philippine island chain.

Trans Global Highway Connecting more than 100 nations
The advantages of the Trans World Highway are huge. Firstly, allowing rapid transport of raw materials and finished goods from near and far. In addition to this it will pave a way for establishing electric power cables as well as communication cables. It is also helpful for laying gas, oil and water pipelines. Let’s say if the Arab countries have full scarcity of water we can pump the fresh water from Europe. The Trans Global Highway with water pipelines from areas of abundance to dry areas, could benefit people.
The Trans Global Highway would definitely increase global security through mutually dependent trade and commerce between the connected countries. As with almost all major public works projects, such as the Suez Canal, the Panama Canal, the Chunnel, the Alaska Pipeline and others, many people will argue that the tunnels, bridges and roads are not necessary. Some may present counter arguments stating that existing air and sea transport is just fine. Further, the cost may at first, may seem astronomical, but in retrospect, every one of these visionary projects has greatly helped mankind in commerce and progress. Ultimately, the Trans Global Highway will be constructed at least the ground work of planning, today. The primary obstacles are in political terms. Many bordering countries are presently at rivalry situation with one another, and may not allow free moving highway to run through their territories, even though there are vast economic benefits.

Imagine driving your car from Scandinavia down to Europe, across Germany, France and Spain, then through the Gibraltar tunnel to Africa. After surrounding the continent, you dispense from the Eastern Mediterranean and drive across much of India and China before moving up the Pacific Rim to the Arctic. Proceeding via the Bering tunnel, you join the Pan-American Highway across Canada, the United States, Mexico and Central America. Driving over the elevated highway which spans the Darien Gap, you arrive in Colombia. Then you visit nations of South America before reaching the southern tip of the continent. Most important, such a global highway will bring the people of the world together as never before, promoting peace and prosperity and enhancing quality of life for billions. Though there is a problem within the countries whether to choose left hand side driving or right hand side driving.

It should be noted that presently, there are many tunnels around the world that are as long as the longest tunnel needed to complete the Trans-Global Highway. The "Chunnel" linking England with Europe is approximately 31.34 miles (50.45km) long, the ocean tunnel Seikan linking Hokkaido with Honshu in Japan is 33.46 miles (55.86km) long, while the new Swiss Gotthard tunnel through the Alps, currently under construction, will be 35.7 miles (59.60km) long. There are in fact, 5 tunnels over 30 miles in length, in existence today.

Unprotected sex - Prime reason for population explosion of India.

When we ask anyone what could be the reason for population growth in India? And the most popular answers you will get are uncontrolled birth rate, decrease in death rate and child marriages etc. Perhaps, these are the possible reasons. But the prime reason is because of the consequence of having sex without any protection. Some people believe that child marriage is the major one. But I totally deny it because it doesn’t matter at what age you marry. Let’s look at this issue in to very deeper perspective. We will go to the conclusion step by step.  As we see the graph below, the population has increased tremendously between 1970 and 1990.
India Population Growth - 2011 Census
Sex without Protection
Firstly, there are no entertainment sources during those days not even tourism as it used to be more expensive. The only entertainment source is Sex. Men used to marry or attracted towards marriage only because of the fact that they can participate in sex regularly. As men used to marry between 18 and 21 and they don’t know whether they can without condoms. Even, if they know about it they don’t follow it because of their religious beliefs. So every time they participate in Sex they used to give birth to a baby. And the women folk who bear the brunt whether they enjoy wholesome sex or not, they has to participate and they think that babies are gifts from god and it is their duty to obey their husbands.

Religious Beliefs
Furthermore, the rural population in those days is more when compared to that of urban. As India’s culture, runs very deep and far back in history, most people still used to follow ancient beliefs. So they believe “God said ‘Go forth and produce’ and we just went ahead and did exactly that.” As a result, a lot of families have more children than they actually want or can afford, resulting in increased poverty, lack of resources, and most importantly, an increased population. If don’t believe this fact look at the families during 1970 and 1980. They used to have 6 children, 8 children and so on. I have heard about a family who has 12 children.

Unfortunately, the aforementioned trend was happened from Kashmir to Kanyakumari knowingly or unknowingly. As a result the population was exploded exponentially. Government started measures by distributing free condoms, family planning and more. But the people don’t utilize them because of their superstitiousness. And the result is huge population.

Australia, Best Country to Immigrate?

         People immigrate to various countries in order to search for good life style and better work opportunities. If their liveable conditions are not suitable in their home country or if there aren’t enough opportunities in their country for their skills, people tend to move from one country to another. Since travelling is very in these days, it’s not hard for them to immigrate. Usually any person travel on work not more than 3 countries and he tries to settle in one among the best country. India and China are the top two countries for the sources of immigrants.

             According to IMMIGroup it has listed the top 10 friendly countries to immigrate which are Canada, Australia, New Zealand, USA, UAE, Norway and Germany. As per the HDI Value  Australia is the better country to immigrate. Let’s look at the things what makes Australia different from America and why it is the best place to immigrate.



Immigration Rules
Australian immigration is very transparent; it’s not like lottery system as in USA. If there are slots available you will get the visa to work for sure. You can get Permanent Residency (Green Card) from Offshore that means from your home country itself. But for USA it will take 6-8 years after being there in USA. It is easy to get Australian Citizenship once you got PR, you will get in 4 years. Nowadays students are gaining citizenship. Once you attain citizenship, you can visit 167 countries without visa or with visa on arrival.



Security
Australia is the most secured country in terms of terrorism or invading by other countries. For any terrorist it will take long time for him to travel from other world to Australia. If he plans such activities the consequence of disaster will be very low and it is foolishness to throw a bomb where people density is very low. There are very stringent policies in Border Security Force of Australia like as it is in USA. However, USA is very prone to various terrorist attacks. Not only Terrorist attacks but also shootings and firings. Since, USA is a weapons manufacturing country and it’s legal to acquire a licence for pistol, so there will be more incidents on a daily basis which lead to deaths of innocent people usually immigrants. Usually the people scared of themselves to go outside during night. But in Australia you can go anywhere at any time without any problem. The chances are only 0.05% if you get hurt by someone.

Climate
Australia is famous for Beaches and Beers. Yes, you can swim deep into the Pacific Ocean on east Australia and Indian Ocean on west Australia. Usually the water here is very warm when compared to the sea water around USA. It will be really cold to play in USA beach. Since Australia is a small continent separated from polar regions by the Southern Ocean, Australia does not get the harsh snaps of polar air. The continents in the Northern Hemisphere have a considerable temperature contrast between summer and winter, whereas in Australia the temperature contrast is small. Usually the winters are not less than 8 degrees and the maximum temperatures will be 30-40 degrees. You can go outside without any jumpers or sweaters. It’s a very friendly climate.



Healthcare
The US spends more on healthcare than Australia. But many citizens still suffer under exorbitant costs. Healthcare is free for Australian citizens through government scheme Medicare. In USA it is very costly for any medical treatment. The Australia lifestyle is good for you and which will make their life expectancy to 80 Years. Usually you will not find Hybrid vegetables in Australia where as in USA everything is hybrid which is not good for health.




Public Transport
There are many forms of transport in Australia. Australia is fully equipped with public transport with its enormous rail network. This rail network for passengers connects many rural areas to major metropolitan centres. Every major city has its own railway network. For long distances people prefer airport which is less than your fuel cost. The mining sector is reliant on rail to transport. There are more than 300 airports all over Australia. But in USA, everyone needs to have a car in order go around somewhere. The public transport system in USA is very poor.

In conclusion I can say USA is also very good country. But if drill down all aspects Australia is a better country to live in and lead a happy life.
