Hello

I live and work in the southern suburb in Osaka, Japan. Does it sound remote? If it does, I will surely be interested in your ideas.
Today, every kind of products and services are coming to take forms of commodities. Not only materials, textiles, and machines are exchanged as commodities, but also information and even education. This trend is deepening and widening. Meanwhile the trading is expanding across borders too. Hence the transformation catches every aspect of our daily lives on every place in the world.
If we workers are to control the process, we should understand every realm of the political-economic system. What makes it possible? Workers live and work everywhere, and experience each respect of 'commoditized' economic life. But the individual experience doesn't always lead to the whole understanding of the global economic process. Each worker should understand his or her own economic events and share the understanding with the others. In understanding and exchanging our experience, it seems to me, writing essays has critical importance. Furthermore, in this ever being globalized society, such literacy in English is vital for workers all over the world. Workers of the world, write!
