A US Secretary of State Condoleeza Rice told to delegates at the opening ceremony she understands to worries of the states of Asia and Europe but "the US economy is resilient, its structure is sound and its long-term fundamentals are healthy." The program of the Economic Forum is rich and no important topic will be neglected. To the main pillars belongs also "Competing While Collaborating"- dealing with lasting globalization, "Exploring Nature's New Frontiers"- advances in science and technologies and how to solve problems such as climate change, aging society, disease eradication and many others. But the participants of the Forum are not only politicians and presidents.

The World Economic Forum in Davos will last until January 27, 2008. The program of following days include prospect for peace in the Middle East, terrorism and nuclear proliferation. But the most important Davos question, addressed to everyone is: " What one thing do you think the countries, companies or individuals must do to make the World the better place in 2008?" Just try to think about it for one moment.
