Absolutely spot-on, Token. I’ve been an admirer of Mr. Yunus’ ever since I learned about him & what he does. In the interviews I’ve seen with him, he just seems like such a lovely, self-effacing person, but very passionate in his belief that big changes can come with small steps. I will definitely be in the audience to see him!

No tix needed. Also, Coca Cola is a partner in this.

Are some kind of tickets needed nonetheless?

Boy am I chatty today.

If anyone deserves the Nobel, it’s Mr. Yunus. He has made life better for thousands of people, especially women in societies where they are second-class citizens, through his microloan program. He exemplifies the finest combination of capitalism and social ideals, which is the rarest of abilities in this ugly world.
