Aside from being rooted in giving and in emotion, metaspora is an aesthetic category. It is emblematic of Beauty, freed from the slag of the bigotry of identities, that degrade so many poems.

Through its effects on art, science and literature, metaspora allows itself the thought of a concept of space and time, taken from Jorge Luis Borges. If the idealistic and romantic concept of diaspora is rooted in real or fantasized memories, by virtue of remembering a loss of origin, the concept of metaspora aims to make the future become present.

They find their place in the subsistence activities of Vanuatu farmers without threatening their ecosystem 0. The agricultural practices of Ni-Vanuatu relate more in fact to horticulture in that every individual possesses a garden in which a large variety of tubers, fruits, vegetables, flowers, are planted in complex arrangements that take into account a number of indicators: Mixing these varieties together in a savy way make these gardens much more resistant to climate uncertainties, frequent and extreme in Vanuatu.

There is more than enough food for everyone in the country, and we enjoy a food security that only comes with growing our own food;. The traditional diet that uses food from the gardens is safe, healthy and nutritious;. There is no homelessness in Vanuatu, a boast as far as I know from my travels around the world that only us, the Solomon Islands and PNG can make the three countries in which the traditional economy is probably the strongest ;.

We enjoy a general level of peace and social harmony throughout the country that is the result of traditional values of respect, equity, the promotion of relationships and a restorative community-based system of dispute resolution. Nevertheless, there has been a general agreement among the ruling parties and donors that economic growth based on foreign investment was the best, if not the only road.

Hence a strong incentive to help the private sector and reduce the role of the State in the economy, already limited since the implementation of the Comprehensive Reform Program crp in 0. A huge gap exists between the burgeoning luxury resorts and other tourism-related activities developed by foreign — Western — investors on one side, and the small-scale businesses owned by Ni-Vanuatu on the other side.

And the minimum wage is too often considered as a standard, universal amount for anyone with no consideration for experience or seniority. There is no income tax, nor any tax on profit. The registration for retail stores, whatever their size a major supermarket or a road stall , is the same for everyone: In the case of tourism development, it largely prevents the Ni-Vanuatu who do possess coastal land to set up themselves a tourist business, instead of leasing their land to foreign investors.

This problem is often made worse by an unfair assessment of the value of seafront lots, in opposition to the relatively small capital needed to build a basic tourist accommodation.
