Time Link, New Caledonia

The I Ching was correct. I asked about the success of Yves' planned Cultural Association. It said, "Thus the superior man consolidates his fate by making his position correct. The fate of fire depends on wood; as long as there is wood below, the fire burns above. It is the same in human life; there is in man likewise a fate that lends power to his life. And if he succeeds in assigning the right place to life and to fate, thus bringing the two into harmony, he puts his fate on a firm footing."

The fostering of the Cultural Association lead Yves into the political arena. Within two years, there were riots and major problems in New Caledonia just as I had foreseen.

This resulted in the emergence of a new political order, with New Caledonia divided into three Provences. Yves became the new Vice President of Provence Sud. Later, after serving his term of office, he became Minister for Commerce and Minister for Culture. Now he is in charge of the environmental concerns of the Southern Provence of New Caledonia and has been instrumental in making major improvements - establishing land and marine parks, fostering environmental regulations for mining, and promoting cooperation between all government agencies for environmental research and regulation.

In 1998 the various groups reached an accord towards eventual semi-independence from France. I say semi-inependence because all countries on our planet share a mutual inter-dependence.
