If there were ever to be a time in history for humanity to save itself, it is now.  The time to sit and idle while hoping that someone will solve world problems without our participation is over. Even sitting idle behind a screen and being a keyboard warrior has become insignificant compared to serving humanity. 

The time is now for every citizen of the world with a working brain to find ignorance and oblivion tendencies distasteful.
We must realise that being a good person does not mean that everyone in the world shares our wishes. There are also those with intentions completely opposite to those of your conscience.
The world is at a fork in the road of whether humanity shall keep its sovereignty and autonomy or forfeit it to the unelected and demonic globalist entities. Although these entities have silently planned and orchestrated disasters behind the shadows, the imminent mass human awakening has gotten them out of the woods. They have come to realise that their window of opportunity to realise the plan is becoming narrower. They naively crowned themselves the “almighty” while underestimating the power of the ever-ascending consciousness that has governed humanity since the beginning of time. As much as we take charge of our future, we must also acknowledge our shortfalls first. We must admit that, for many decades, we have been taken for fools. Through deception, we relinquished our power and capacity to think. Even after gaining our independence, we remained being servitude to the same principles and visions of those whom we claim to have freed ourselves from. For instance, most of our development agenda and priorities are still decided by external entities like the European Union. 

Of late, even after the truth of how climate is a con job has emerged, we are still being lectured on how much financial resources must be spared to address it. This clearly indicates that, to make believe that we are truly free while still serving an inferior position in the global development arena is just another shot in the dark.
Of course, we do need international partnership, but we must go to the negotiation table with our terms and conditions. In our deliberations, our sovereignty as a nation must never be compromised. In our deliberations with global partners, we must distaste any conditions attached to financial assistance that are not in line with our culture and fundamental values.
To really set ourselves free and guarantee a future, it would be irresponsible for the youth to allow their destiny to be determined by those who will not be there to experience it. To achieve this, the youth must start taking a lead in politics. Assuming that politics are for a few and the old guard of the liberation struggles is a great mistake. This must be done with the understanding that to be in politics does not necessarily mean political affiliation, but using the existing platforms, including social media, to have serious deliberations about matters of national concern. To achieve that, we must also first address
the current social media conundrum of “naming and shaming”. Just as other nations, especially in Asia, we must use social media and other platforms to engage in mature and constructive deliberations.
This is because this is the last opportunity we will ever have to not only take charge but create our own narrative that shapes the future. We must act with a matter of urgency; otherwise, we must be prepared to endure the hardships like depopulation through famine in the name of climate change.
