FAO Quotables

"But being right, even morally right, isn't everything. It is also important to be competent, to be consistent, and to be knowledgeable. It's important for your soldiers and diplomats to speak the language of the people you want to influence. It's important to understand the ethnic and tribal divisions of the place you hope to assist."
-Anne Applebaum

Excited for this event next week: China's Engagement with Africa

This should be a great event and I am excited I get to attend this!  One of the myriad reasons I love my job...yup, I said it.  I work in the PGON and I said I love my job!  One of the speakers at the event Deborah Brautigam has a great blog whose link is on the sidebar of my blog.
