OUR ENHANCED ECOLOGY MINDED RENEWABLE ENERGY INVENTIONS

OUR ENHANCED ECOLOGY MINDED RENEWABLE ENERGY INVENTIONS INTRODUCTION IN ENGLISH AND CHINESE
http://www.worldharmonyorg.net/

To put it in a meaningful way, I can venture to say that my inventions are the cumulative experience and wisdom of many years and many partners in appropriate renewable energy development with enhanced environmental considerations.. The fact that the inventions were submitted for patent applications recently by me only means that the awareness to harmonize with nature has finally come of age be lately. Our three green energy inventions include the use of atmospheric, geothermal, hydro, solar, wave, wind and waste heat energies for electric generation. Our inventions are low cost, easy to manufacture and suited for rural and developing world applications.

In each case, in the case of VPTG (an all in one venturi 360 degree VAT turbine that can harness atmospheric, wind, geothermal and waste heat energy), HACG (hydraulic compressed air power electric generator) and AWEG (an induced wave power electric generator powered by alternate gravity and buoyancy forces), we minimize the perturbation of nature compared to conventional way of using renewable energies. The VPTG VAT turbine is multidirectional compared to uni- direction. The VPTG can funnel wind from the bottom upwards along the venturi tube to the throat area for maximum power utilization. My inventions can be readily scaled up or down to suit community electricity use. We use natural environments without the need to build elaborate civil structures. In all cases we also minimize the use of precious space. Think about the implications.

For conventional wave electric generators their size is determined by the length of the natural wave in each locality. Our AWEG can be scaled up and down independent of the wave length of the body water. We induce the waves according to our design (note the word induce). In a close system, using cryogenic fluid as working media, the AWEG invention is uniquely suitable as a superconducting electric generator. The beauty of super conducting phenomenon is that large amount of electricity can be generated in small cylindrical spaces.

For Julia, Lin, and Leon who have heard my inventions presentation many times over, most likely appreciate the sweeping statement above. For those who have not heard my presentations often I will be patient. Lin can you render above statement into Chinese that will convey our noble intent to the Chinese speakers also? Appreciate it.

关于三个绿色能源技术发明的解释
世界和谐组织总干事:冯忠华博士 (Francis C. W. Fung, PhD)

从某种意义上,可以大胆地说,我的发明是多年来我和许多合作伙伴,最大限度地考虑了环境因素,在就地可再生能源开发方面的经验累积,是智慧的结晶。从我日前提交了技术发明专利申请这一迟来的事实,意味着人与大自然和谐的时代终于到来。三个绿色能源发明使用了包括空气、地热、水力、太阳能、波浪、风力和废热等。结构简单,造价低廉,最适合农村和发展中国家。
逐个说明:立式文丘里管动力涡轮发电(VPTG)利用了空气的动力。文丘里管空气动力涡轮,能同时使用大气(风从四面八方进入)、地热和废热。 水力压缩空气发电(HACG)可说是另类水力发电。对比一般的可再生能源利用领域,我们尽量减少对自然的干扰。我的发明,可根据社区用电量大小来决定规模的大小。再者,我们利用自然环境,就地制作,无需大兴土木。所有发明都尽量节省宝贵的土地资源。个中寓意,日久弥深。
特别值得一提的是人造波浪发电(AWEG)。这里所说的波浪,无需江河大海,而是本人独出心裁的诱发波浪技术设计(请注意“诱发”一词),交叉利用地心引力和浮力,让一个密封物体有规律地在一个天然或人造水体上下沉浮,推动水力涡轮发电。常规波浪发电,规模大小取决于各地水体的天然波长。这种人造波浪发电(AWEG),独立于当地自然水体的波长,规模可大可小。使用低温液体为工作介质,人造波浪发电(AWEG)是一种独特的超导发电机。超导现象妙就妙在只要很小的圆柱型空间,就能发出大量的电力。

GENEI GREEN ENERGY DEPOSITORY RESPONSE TO KLEINER PERKINS

http://www.worldharmonyorg.net/
Reply to KPCB, Al Gore joined forces with them on Green Energy Initiatives. Please review and comment.

Dear David,

TY for your response. I am providing some pertinent info to you per your request for my published papers and background. As we continue our dialog I hope to provide more of what you need for due diligence. The attached documents will also give you additional background. I specifically refer you to my Publication List for a glimpse of my publications throughout my long career spanning many fields. You can access most of my publications by Googling "francis c w fung".

I am innovative from an early stage. My first paper on Magneto Hydrodynamics in the leading fluid mechanics journal "Physic of Fluids" was published during my first year of graduate study at Johns Hopkins University. JHU awarded me a M.Sc. degree as a honor. I graduated from Brown University at the age of 20. My graduate project was a small drone with the jet engine mounted on top of the fuselage just below the rudder to allow more usable fuselage space and ease of maintenance. This unprecedented engine location predates commercial aviation design by at least 10 years.

In between my graduate study in fluid mechanics I went to work for Cornell Aeronautical Laboratory for one year. I published my second paper on Dynamic fluid response under zero gravity in an Air force Weightlessness Phenomena Proceeding sponsored by Lockheed Aircraft and the Air force.. On my return to Johns Hopkins I completed my PH.D. and comprehensive requirement.

My third paper, was titled The Vanishing Plate in Blasius Flow. The analysis calculated the wake flow of a melting simple returning space object. It was published by Proceedings of International Union of Theoretical Applied Mechanics on Unsteady Boundary Layer Conference. It was my PH.D. thesis and coauthored with the well known University of Notre Dame professor, Victor W. Nee.

From my publication list you may sense that my currrent passions are harmony renaissance and renewable energy inventions. After my 10 year tenure with National Institute of Technology and Standards at Gaithersburg as Section Chief, I co-founded Aerophysics Company with E.G. Liberator and Dr.Gabriel Bohler. Our joint projects during the late 1970s include the following;

ICCOMIZER WASTE HEAT RECOVERY FROM FRANCE TO AMERICA (COMMERCIALIZATION FUNDED BY BROOK HAVEN LAB., DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY)SURFACE EFFECT SHIP DIFFUSION FAN TECHNOLOGY FROM FRANCE TO AMERICA (R AND D FUNDED BY U.S. NAVY)

Gene and Gab are inactive now but have been my life long partners and advisers. Gab and Gene both are experts in surface effect ships. Gab earned the nick name of GEM (Ground Effect Machine) merchant and Gene wrote the authoritative surface effect ships introduction article to Jane's Ships.

During the late1980's I co-founded Finance and Technology Associates, a premier technology transfer firm. Dr. Beno Sternlicht, then Chairman of MTI now Benjosh Consultant, and I worked together to transfer the following technology to China,

SOLAR STIRLING ENGINE FOR GREEN ELECTRICITY GENERATION AND RURAL POWER FROM AMERICA TO CHINA (A U.S. $ 15 MILLION CHINA AND MTI FUNDED PROJECT.)

SEE ATTACHED LETTER FROM BENO STERNLICHT. YOU MAY GOOGLE DR. STERNLICHT ALSO. DR. STERNLICHT IS OUR SENIOR ADVISER.POWER TURBINE FOR ELECTRICITY GENERATION BY CONVERTING GAS TURBINE ENGINES. TECHNOLOGY FROM UNITED KINGDOM TO CHINA (COOPER ROLLS-ROYCE JOINT VENTURE WITH CHINESE ACADEMY OF SCIENCES AND CHINA AVIATION MINISTRY)

I retired early to pursuit my interest in harmony writing, green energy inventions and part time teaching. I have taught at San Francisco State University, Shanghai Jiao Tong University and Chinese Academy of Science. You may also Google francis c w fung for more info on me.

Regarding our inventions, it is under patent application by our in house attorney, Leon Jew. His resume is attached for your reference. I am not at liberty to reveal more written information on our VPTG, HACG and AWEG RENEWABLE ENERGY inventions. The description I have already provided could be quite vivid for those practice fluid mechanics. I will explian in detail with drawings to your side when we meet. I am also more than happy to answer any questions in person to your satisfaction upon your side executing a simple NDA as usual.

We are currently under discussion with the Hong Kong Government, HK Science Park and HK University of Science and Technology to form a team to build prototypes and perform commercialization. The HK Government with provide 50% of the funding. Production units will most likely be manufactured and distributed by China at beginning. Hopefully future units can be built locally in developing countries to reduce transportation and support local job markets.

I am interested in sharing our vision with KPCB. We hope our own inventions can serve as the foundation for launching the GENEI (Green Energy Inventions) depository to help rural areas, reservation areas and developing countries to better manage their environment. That is unity of man and nature in harmony. It is in this bigger vision that we seek commonality with KPCB.

THE FOLLOWING CONCLUDING REMARKS ADDRESS TWO LEADING PHILOSOPHY FOR THE GENEI (GREEN ENERGY INVENTIONS) DEPOSITORY AND NEUAGE (NEW APPROPRIATE GREEN ELECTRICITY) PLATFORM.

THE FIRST PHILOSOPHY IS FOR THE PRODUCTS TO BE USED TO SUPPLY GREEN ELECTRICITY FOR THE YET DEVELOPING WORLD. IN ORDER FOR THE PATENTED PRODUCTS GETTING TO THE MARKET FOR THE INTENDED DEVELOPING WORLD AND RURAL AREAS WE CHOOSE MPC WITH HIGH FLY ASH CONTENT CONSTRUCTION FOR THE VPTG, HACG AND AWEG HOUSING. THE NANO CONSTRUCTION MATERIAL IS RELATIVELY ECONOMICAL, EASY TO BUILD LOCALLY. THERE IS NO ENERGY INPUT NEEDED DURING MANUFACTURING.

THE DESIGNS ARE PURPOSELY MINIMALLY SIMPLE FOR EASE OF CONSTRUCTION. THE UNITS ARE SCALABLE IN SIZE TO SUIT COMMUNITY ELECTRICITY NEEDS. THE ONLY THING ANY WHERE REMOTELY CLOSE TO HIGH TECH ARE THE MICRO PROCESSOR AUTOMATION CONTROL UNITS TO MANAGE THE WATER AND AIR SEPARATION CHAMBERS AND THE PATENTED OPERATION LOGIC OF THE DESIGN.

ALL AIR TURBINES AND ELECTRIC GENERATORS ARE TO BE SHELF AVAILABLE UNITS. THE HOUSINGS WILL BUILD AROUND THE TURBINES AND THE GENERATORS. FOR BIGGER ELECTRICITY NEEDS MULTIPLE UNITS CAN BE EMPLOYED. THERE IS NO INTENTION TO COMPETE WITH LARGE ELECTRIC UTILITIES.

THE SECOND PHILOSOPHY IS FOR THE VISION TO GROW. IT IS EXPECTED THAT THE GREATER VISION OF THE GENEI DEPOSITORY WILL CONTINUE BEYOND CURRENT INVENTIONS THAT LAUNCHED THE PLATFORM. WORLD HARMONY ORGANIZATION DOES NOT EXPECT MANAGEMENT NOR EQUITY CONTROL. FOR THE CONCEPT TO BE SUCCESSFUL AND WIDE SPREAD THE TEAM MUST INCLUDE EXCELLENT MANAGEMENT, ENGINEERING, MANUFACTURING, MARKETING AND DISTRIBUTION ARMS.

AS THE GENEI PLATFORM GROWS, THE ORIGINAL WORLD HARMONY ORGANIZATION (WHO) TEAM WISHES TO REMAIN PART OF A CORE GROUP TO EVALUATE NEW INVENTIONS AND PERFORMS R AND D OF NEW PRODUCTS TO HELP THE GENEI DEPOSITORY GROW. IT IS IN THIS LARGER GLOBAL VISION, KPCB WITH ITS VAST RESOURCES AND MANAGEMENT EXPERIENCE CAN BE MOST EFFECTIVE.

Our expertise in the energy field can complement KPCB to achieve greater vision for climate and ecology management in a global manner..

Attached are additional bios of our partners and senior advisers. I am still waiting for the bios from our partners John Delfavro and Dr. Albert Cheung and Albert Chang who are currently on travel. Please feel free to ask any additional questions until we can meet and discuss specifics in person.

Wishing you the best of all green energy choices.

WORLD HARMONY RENAISSANCE, GREEN ENERGY INVENTIONS

倡导和谐复兴、绿色能源发明
冯忠华教授其人其事
http://www.worldharmonyorg.net/

世界和谐组织总干事冯忠华教授,原籍浙江绍兴,香港出生,上海长大,11岁随家人回港定居。13岁初中毕业,14-15岁被送进远东飞行学校。接着再念高中,一年后毕业,考取美国布朗大学全额奖学金,20岁大学毕业。其毕业设计是将小型雄蜂无人驾驶间谍喷气飞机的引擎安装在机尾上方仅低于尾舵处,腾出机身的大量空间,前后舱适当安装各种间谍仪器如照相机等。这种独特的配置,大大提高机身利用率,更方便发动机的保养,领先商业飞行器设计至少十五年。此事1960年发生在一个20出头的年轻中国小伙子身上。
冯先生才华横溢,学贯东西,成绩出类拔萃,年纪轻轻,志向高远,热衷创新,多有发明。进入约翰霍普金斯大学流体力学研究所的第一年(1962年),他就在引领流体力学潮流的权威杂志《流体物理》"Physics of Fluids"上发表第一篇论文【强磁场汇流】。约翰霍普金斯大学因此授予他荣誉硕士学位。期间,他到康乃尔航空实验室工作一年。1965年,他在洛克希德飞机公司和空军赞助的空军失重会议程序杂志《动态流体》上发表第二篇论文【失重环境下的动态反应】。返回约翰霍普金斯大学,完成博士和所有规定的综合课程,很快取得航空动力博士学位。
冯教授早期发表的第三篇论文名为【布拉休斯流体中的消失板块】,内容是一个熔化简单回空物体尾流的分析计算。根据国际理论应用力学联盟Unsteady Boundary Layer会议的程序出版。这也是他博士论文,合著人为著名的圣母大学 维克托·尼教授。
从冯教授的著作清单中,人们看到的,除了其职业生涯的各种著作,在节约能源、烟火安全、创新教学和流体动力研究的成就,让人感受最深的是他对和谐复兴的强烈追求,对可再生能源技术的发明激情。冯博士曾任美国国家研究院技术和标准局科长十年,之后和E·G·利布来特博士 (E. J .Liberator)、加布里埃尔·伯勒尔博士 (Gabriel Bohler) 共同创办了航空物理公司(Aerophysics Company)。20世纪70年代末,他们合作过以下意义 重大的项目:
1、从法国引进“废热回收器技术”到美国(由美国能源部布克海文国家实验室资助商业化)。
2、引进法国“表面效应船扩散风机技术”到美国(美国海军提供研发经费)。
利布来特博士和伯勒尔博士目前已很少出席学术活动,却成为他此生长期的合作伙伴和顾问。两位博士都是表面效应船的专家。伯勒尔博士赢得了地面效应机器的雅号,利布来特博士则为权威刊物《詹氏舰艇Janes Ships》写了表面效应船 Surface Effect Ships) 的引言。
上世纪80年代后期,冯博士和时任MTI公司董事长(现任Benjosh公司总裁)的本诺·史都力腾(Beno Sternlicht)博士共同创办了财经和技术协作公司(Finance & Technology Associates),向中国转让了下列技术:
3、引进美国“用于绿色发电和农村发电技术的太阳能斯特林发动机”到中国(一个中国和美国MTI系统公司共同资助1500万美元完成的项目)。请看史都力腾博士的推荐函。史都力腾博士是世界和谐组织的高级顾问。
4、引进英国“燃气涡轮发动机转换动力涡轮发电技术”到中国(库珀劳斯莱斯公司和中国科学院合作为合资企业引进)。
冯教授提前退休,追求自己感兴趣的和谐理论研究写作和绿色能源技术发明,兼职教学。冯教授曾任教于旧金山州立大学,上海交通大学和中国科学院。从谷歌查找Francis C W Fung,可得到更多关于他的信息。
冯教授的绿色能源最新发明包括但不限于以下方面:
1、合作伙伴提供的一种低成本纳米超级建材,非常适合节能装置的建设。该材料容易成形,适合现场制作。高强度,无腐蚀,阻漏防潮。能效高、重量轻,便于运输。最重要的特点是可生物降解。这是建材技术的突破,使许多绿色能源发明在经济上和技术上都更加可行。
2、文丘里管动力涡轮发电技术(VPTG),毫无疑问是最适合为农村和边远小社区提供电力的专利发明。使用纳米超级建材制作文丘里管,本少、坚固、质轻、吸热,经济上更加可行。设计原则是综合收集现成的太阳能、废热、大气位能和低品位的就地可用燃料,包括地热和农业废料,最大限度地利用空气遇热膨胀的力量,生产绿色电力。这种废热收集发电同时生产热水的系统,以行之有效的技术设备,变废为宝。
3、水力压缩空气发电机(HACG),可利用水资源甚至循环水为小社区发电和制冷。这种压缩机是一种绿色能源装置,无污染,也不改变生态环境,建造简单,造价低廉。同样使用成本低廉且能现场制作的纳米超级建材和技术,只需数天,就能发电。该系统最适合边远地区、山区,特别是政府核定的自然生态保护区。
4、人工波浪发电(AWEG)。该技术根据潜艇的原理,规模具伸缩性,大小随意。为充分利用水资源,只需在地下建个水池,就能发电。以低温液体为媒体,它是一个高科技的超导发电机。
为了世界和谐复兴大业,世界和谐组织下属就地绿色新能源委员会(NEUAGE COMMISSION)创办了一个节能和生态技术的绿色新能源发明技术储库(GENEI DEPOSITORY),目标是改善发展中国家特别是边远农村地区人民的生活条件。《就地绿色新能源》和《绿色能源发明》两个名字,已成为世界和谐组织提供服务的注册商标和网站。
绿色能源发明技术储库,有意为具备创新生态意识的个人和组织提供多方面的专业协助,使他们为发展中国家特别是农村研发绿色能源的美梦成真。计划向他们提供专业知识,包括但不限于帮助客户甄别发明种类、强化应用、专利申请、商标注册、制作商业计划书、融资、生产样机直至商品化和推销,以保证世界和谐复兴及绿色能源事业持续发展,后继有人。
冯教授上述发明已由世界和谐组织的祝良律师申请了专利。目前正与香港政府沟通,到香港科学园和香港科技大学组成一个小组,开发样机,再到中国将发明技术商品化。香港政府承诺提供50%的经费。冯教授认定,中国是最理想的制造和分销点。
冯教授有个愿景,以绿色能源发明储库为基础,帮助中国和发展中国家的广大农村地区和生态保留区,更好地保护属于大家的自然环境。实现人与自然的和谐共处。居于这一崇高愿景,世界和谐组织希望与全球有志于和谐复兴和环境保护的团体长期合作,优势互补。掀起全球性的大规模运动,关注和管理地球气候和生态,研发并推广使用绿色能源,实现更大的抱负。
对于自然环境和生态保护,冯教授对自己创立的绿色能源发明技术储库和就地绿色电力平台,萌生出两个主导信念。
第一、产品主要为发展中国家供应绿色电力。为让专利产品尽快服务发展中国家的边远地区,选择了纳米超级建材,掺入大量粉煤灰,用于建设VPTG,HACG和AWEG的主体。纳米材料相对经济,易于就地制作,制作过程无需耗能。
设计上尽量简单,便于施工。规模可大可小,以满足社区电力需求为标准。对边远地区来说,唯一接近高科技的是自动化遥控管理水和空气分隔箱的微处理器和专利的运作逻辑设计。可在先进工业区事先生产。
任何空气涡轮机和发电机,都有现成的商品,无需特别研发。外壳可绕涡轮机和发电机而建。电力需求大的社区,多建几个则可。不与大型发电厂竞争利益。
第二、愿景持续成长。期望绿色能源发明技术储库有更大作为,在目前发明平台基础上,辐射全球,不断超越。世界和谐组织并不期望亲自管理自己的技术,也无意在合作公司中控股。冯教授认为,一个能不断成长的成功团队,其理念必须包括优秀的管理,设计,制造,销售和分销等力量。
绿色能源发明技术储库平台成长后,世界和谐组织团队只希望在核心团队中保留自己的部分,留出主要精力和时间集中评估新发明,研发新产品,培养年青人,以助绿色能源发明技术储库的成长。
这是一个全球性的伟大愿景,冯教授希望和任何有志于和谐复兴、保护地球的公司或个人合作,集中资源和管理经验,以人与自然和谐相处大业为己任,优势互补,发挥最大的效益。
这就是我所认识的冯忠华博士:
少小离家,未改乡音。心系巨龙,豪气干云。人中豪杰,技术精英。沪粤国语,精通中英。和谐理论,矢言复兴。忠华儿女,青史留名。

I am invited by the Hong Kong Government to visit for two weeks beginning Nov. 30. The idea is to assemble a team including HK Science Park and the HK University of Science and Technology to work on my green energy inventions. They like my presentation of my VPTG (VENTURI POWER TURBINE GENERATOR), HACG (HYDRAULIC AIR COMPRESSOR GENERATOR) and AWEG (ARTIFICIAL WAVE ELECTRIC GENERATOR) green energy electric inventions. If it works out the prototype will be made in HK. The HK Government will match 50 % of the necessary funds. It sounds great. This is the beginning.

Hong Kong Science Park proposed to demonstrate the AWEG proptotype on site as a added tourist attraction to the Science Park.

CHINA'S GRAND STRATEGY EVOLVING WITH CONCEPT OF SCIENTIFIC DEVELOPMENTT

CHINA’S GRAND STRATEGY EVOLVING WITH CONCEPT OF SCEINTIFIC DEVELOPMENT
By Francis C. W. Fung, PH.D.
www.worldharmonyorg.net

Under the impact of Western science and civilization, China for more than two hundred years was searching for a development direction of her own, which would not entail giving up her tradition and identity. The period of search began at the end of Qing dynasty, when China suffered humiliations one after the other under the reigning colonial powers of the time. This continuing process of development struggle lasted through foreign domination, invasions and domestic upheavals until the end of the twentieth century. China’s history of trial and tribulations during this time period is well documented in literature. From it, the Chinese nation collectively paid dearly and learned the hard lessons necessary to move forward like all great national revivals of the past. Human civilization as a whole cannot afford to neglect the over 5000 years of valuable Chinese culture and tradition. That will be most regrettable.

China is moving into the 21st Century with impressive economic development unprecedented in human history for such a large nation which began with the reform and open up policy initiated by the late Deng Xiaoping. It occurred during the last 30 years of relative peace and stability after the end of the cold war era. It is understandable that the nation of China as a whole looked back at the involuntary isolation of the cold war era with a great deal of misgiving. For all nations to progress with the world it must be given the level field to interact with the outside. For great powers to exercise its naval power to contain other nation’s development is inhumane.

Having achieved relative economic successes, China is now looking to sustainable development. Great debates are occurring in China especially during the last five years on its continuing path of development and modernization. From the debates, the Chinese Central government has launched two ground breaking concepts that can open the flood gate of innovative sustainable thinking. The 2004 Concept of Scientific development led eventually to the 2006 “Decisions for the building of a harmony society”. Can China develop according to this approach? What other factors must occur in China? What are the other necessary conditions for China to stay the course? Is this the direction for socialism building with Chinese characteristics of which we so often hear? Has China finally found its unique direction of development? It is important for both the developed and the developing countries to find out. It will affect the destiny of almost one quarter of world’s population and perhaps other developing countries’ development. Will this lead to the so called Beijing Consensus? More important, will it finally take hold in China and last?

The essence of ancient Chinese culture is reverence of the “Great Way” (Dao) as taught by Laotze, and pursuit of Harmony with humility as a belief system handed down by Confucius and her other sages. Simply put, Chinese culture reveres the Great Way and has strong affinity for harmony. This affinity is reflected with prominence in the Chinese ceremonial way of life, landscaping, building design, Fengshui practices and moral codes and values. Dao is the highest order of belief and is the origin of the universe. It is nature’s order and is the unification of the scientific spirit and human spirit. It is the soul and roots of Chinese culture. A culture can never deny its own heritage. A culture which looses its own roots is devoid of its own soul.

The ultimate goal of practicing Dao is to reach inner peace and live in harmony with the universe (Tien Ren He Yi). This includes harmony with nature, harmony within the family, the society, the country and harmony among nations. To reach broad harmony, Dao must lead us to harmony through trust, justice, equity, forgiveness, tolerance and humility. Human development so far has been dominated by “Survival Aggression” with the strong overwhelming the weak, the worst examples were military conquests, colonialism and forcing one’s development model on others by force. China as a traditional agriculture, as opposed to a predominantly nomadic society, has been an exceptionally peaceful major nation that did not have a history of foreign conquest. Because of the last two hundred years of domination and humiliation by foreign imperialistic nations China today has a strong distaste to the practice of “Survival Aggression”. That is why China today is advocating harmony society and world harmony through harmony renaissance (see “China’s Harmony Renaissance- What the World Must Know” by the author).

Today the inevitable tide of harmony with nature is also beginning to catch on. The world consensus of harmony with nature will lead to the recognition of the need for harmony among nations also. Mutual development, win-win development will gradually replace the past blind zero sum mentality of world development. World harmony renaissance will release humans from the bondage of destructive- survival confrontations. It will release our collective creative energy for constructive mutual development. Human history has gone through two major phases of development. Approximately two thousand years ago, the world saw a burst of philosophical ideas spreading through the world for universal love and order. Five hundred years or so ago, the age of enlightenment and European Renaissance gave us democracy and today’s modern science. Harmony Renaissance is the third phase of development that will yield a level playing field for all nations to enjoy the fruits of common human innovation. Our collective accomplishments will far surpass the achievements of European Renaissance (see “World harmony Renaissance- Promise for a Better World” by the author).

Having achieved relative economic success during the last 30 years of reform and opening up the new China of today is faced with the dilemmas of uneven development, reconciliation of the old and new caused by breakneck speed of change. The new China of 58 years is going through unprecedented upheavals relative to its entire recorded history of over 5000 years. As a matter of fact the tumult caused by unprecedented rapid change experienced by China today, also has no parallel in human history of any major nation. At times, China overwhelmed by the impact of Western culture, appeared to be lost.

As meritorious as the philosophies of DAO and harmony as universal common values, they will not become the grand strategy of development for China. There also needs to be no fear for the so called “Beijing Consensus” that will be exported to the developing world. The future world is fast becoming a multilateral world. Just as we witness how the world conflicts brought on by attempts to claim religious superiority led to cultural clashes, the disastrous aftermath of America’s enforcing of its own democratic system on Iraq is for all to see. Religion, democracy, Dao and harmony philosophies are essential to teach us common values for our hearts to reach peace within ourselves. They are beliefs for each person to strive for according to his cultural heritage. On the other hand the grand strategy of development for any nation must develop from within and not to be forced from the outside. In a multilateral world no nation wishes to be preached at either.

So for China, its grand strategy for development must be “socialism with Chinese characteristics” as wisely announced by the consensus conclusion reached by the 17 CPC National Congress that just ended October 21st, 2007. According to the headlines, China’s grand strategy will evolve from the concept of scientific development with the objective of building a relatively prosperous, just, and harmonious society for all. And the grand strategy incorporating the objective of harmony will be the result of a comprehensive master plan of executable engineering system analysis, comprising the following critical pieces. The order of importance of each element in the following outline is not fixed, but will sure be subject to the dynamic evolvement of a complex and fluid society in its development. But the harmony spirit of the great Dao of discovering the new and old must remain intact as put forth by the author in the following summary:

ALL NATIONAL DEVELOPMENTS MUST BE CONTINULY EVOLVING AND IN TOUCH WITH WORLD DEVELOPMENT. ONCE DISTURBED FORCIBLY BY OUTSIDE FORCE INSTABILITY WILL SET IN.

CHINESE GRAND STRATEGY IS EVOLVING FROM THE 2004 CONCEPT OF SCIENTIFIC DEVELOPMENT. IT IS, ACCORDING TO THE CPC, A SYSTEM OF CHINESE SOCIALISM WITH CHINESE CHARACTERISTICS

CHINESE CURRENT DEVELOPMENT SHALL CONSISTS OF ECONOMIC, POLITICAL, SCIENTIFIC AND SOCIETAL ELEMENTS

CONTINUE THE CURRENT MOMENTUM OF REFORM AND OPENING UP,
FINE TUNE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT FOR SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT

EXPAND CONCEPT OF SCIENTIFIC DEVELOPMENT INTO SYSTEM ENGINEERING GUIDE LINES

GRADUALLY INTRODUCE POLITICAL REFORM TO INTRODUCE MORE PARTICIPATION TO SUIT MODERN DEVELOPMENT

PROMULGATE LAWS TO SUPPORT ECONOMIC AND POLITICAL REFORMS. DEVELOPMENT MUST BE IN HARMONY WITH NATURE

SOCIALISM IN THE INITIAL STAGE MUST BUILD A STRONG ECONOMIC FOUNDATION. CHINA IS STILL AT THE EARLY STAGE OF SOCIALIST DEVELOPMENT

MARXISM MUST BE EVOLUTIONARY AND IN TOUCH WITH WORLD DEVELOPMENT

CHINA WILL BE FOREVER AGAINST HEGEMONY AND WILL PROMOTE MUTUAL AND WIN-WIN DEVELOPMENT

ADVOCATE DAO AND HARMONY RENAISSANCE AS NATIONAL REVIVAL

ADVOCATE HARMONY DIPLOMACY AS THE GOLDEN RULE OF WORLD GOVERNANCE

SOCIALISM WITH CHINESE CHARACTERISTICS IS SOCIALISM WITH HARMONY

BUILD HARMONY SOCIETY WITH HARMONY BETWEEN TRADITIONAL VALUE, MODERN HUMAN RIGHTS AND SOCIALISTIC DEVELOPMENT

MAINTAIN HARMONY BETWEEN STATE AND DIFFERENT FORMS OF PRIVATE AND MARKET ECONOMY

PROMOTE WORLD HARMONY THROUGH ECOLOGY CONSENSUS AND UNITY OF MAN WITH NATURE. IN CHINA THE SAYING IS TIEN REN HE YI.
IN ENGLISH, LACKING A TRADITIONAL TERM PERHAPS THE APT DESCRIPITION IS COLLECTIVELY BUILDING A GREEN WORLD.
