17 Year Old Nobel Peace Prize Winner Malala Yousafzai Tells World Leaders A Thing Or Two...

During Malala's powerful acceptance speech at the Nobel Peace Prize ceremony in Oslo a few days ago, the young Pakistani schoolgirl who was shot by the Taliban two years ago and has become a global icon, was now sharing the most prestigious of prizes with Indian child rights campaigner Kailash Satyarthi. The gutsy and eloquent Malala criticised world governments for having the resources to begin wars but not the will to enable peace and universal education.
The world's youngest Nobel laureate's wonderful acceptance speech laced with self-deprecating humour is here.
She called as all peace prize winners do, not just for education but also fairness and caring.
The so-called world of adults may understand it, but we children don't. Why is it that countries which we call 'strong' are so powerful in creating wars but so weak in bringing peace? she said.
Why is it that giving guns is so easy but giving books is so hard? Why is it that making tanks is so easy, but building schools is so difficult?
World leaders aren't interested in peace Malala,
there's no money in it...

Norway's Prime Minister Takes A Second Job As A Taxi Driver...

Norwegian Prime Minister didn't have to take a second job as a cab driver for financial reasons.
Jens Stoltenberg just knows as politicians the world over know that the people who actually know what's happening and how their country should be run are its hairdressers and cabbies.
So donning a cab driver's uniform and dark glasses he got behind the wheel of an Oslo cab.
The comments and the passengers reactions on realising who the driver was were captured on a camera. Some naturally enough took advantage of the situation to tell the Prime Minister how they saw things and how he should be running the country. As you would.
Mistaking the brake pedal for the clutch at one time, the passenger advised the Mr Stoltenberg not to give up his day job.
But with him and his party lagging behind in the polls prior to the September elections, perhaps he'll keep his job options open...
