RAISING >2 BILLION HUMANS INTELLIGENCES BY 25 YEARS. After helping with recovery 1970 cyclone killing half a million of his compatriots, Fazle Abed was nearly assassinated by his employer Royal Dutch Shell and the Pakistani army. Fortunately he spent his remaining 50 years celebrating intelligence development of the poorest 2 billion parents notably growth of 1billiongirls. For over quarter of a century all networking was done by word of mouth and sight of book because in Asia 20th c village life still meant no access to electricity grids or telephone lines. Fortunately both Computing Whizs Jobs & Gates were both partly dis-satisfied with western apps of pc networks which they had begun in 1984. Around 2001 they both hosted silicon valley 65th birthday wish parties for Abed as global village tech envoy. Partners in life critical challenges had begun to bring abed's village mothers solar and mobile to co-create with. Abed changed the way Jobs saw tech futures of education (see ) and how Gates saw global health fund foundations and overall the valley's university stanford started to see as far as intelligence of Women and Youth goes the most life critical knowhow for 2 billion humans wasnt directly measurable in 90 day monetary flows; it was measurable in increased life expectancy by over 25 years during Abed's community servant leadership. Probably the greatest lift in intelligence until celebrations of what Fei-Fei Li opened the worlds eyes to in 2012, and Melinda Gates and Nvidia's Jensen Huang were first to helped AIforall lift since 2014.

huni2.1 rice

context as explained in 2009 brac annual report

 Another example of a backward-linking social enterprise

is the BRAC vegetable seed initiative. At present, half a

million of our borrowers grow vegetables as their principal

income generation activity. These women needed seeds

to improve their production so we established a seed

multiplication enterprise. We not only provide quality

vegetable seeds but produce hybrid rice and maize

seeds for poor farmers. Today we are the largest

producer of seeds in Bangladesh.

latest news may 2021

of all borlaug's grreen revolutions that applied to rice across asia saved hundreds of millions from starvation- rice local production first multiplied in japan taiwan korea of 1950s

-here is abed 2008 complimenting rockeller for supporting birth of irri collab philipines 1960


however when brac was born in 1972 chinese villages who abed sought knowledge from on barefoot medics were also collaborating in miracle rice - this report from china 2021 shows the urgemcy of rice efficiency replication in 1970s -our estimates show over 30 million chinese died of starvation in 1960s- 

the organisation system way china replicates any miracle solution endding villagre poverty is different from abed's social business microfranchising but anyone who fails to understad both urgency of need on continent asia 1970s to 1995 and why community solutions were often swapped is at best uniformed

Tens of thousands of mourners from across China flocked to the funeral of 

Yuan Longping
 in the central city of Changsha on Monday in a spontaneous outpouring of public grief for the agronomist and national hero known as “the father of hybrid rice”.

Millions more paid their last respects at a state-sanctioned virtual funeral held online for Yuan after he 

died of organ failure aged 90
 on Saturday, a beloved figure credited with saving tens of millions from hunger in China as well as developing countries across Asia and Africa.

The scale of mass mourning was reminiscent of the funerals of only a few Chinese leaders in modern history, and the crowds of grieving younger people underscored the deep regard for him across generations.

as our diaries from the economist show up to death of jf kennedy americans cheered on across asia - less about the mission impossible hope that moon landing would convey on future industrial revolutions, hugely about borlaug sharing his agricultural revolution and on far east coasts demings engineering revolutions

after kennedy washington dc exponentially lost livesmatter collaborations at home and across asia - fortunately abed as region ceo engineer for dutch oil company maintained joyous connections with netherlands, uk, japan by now what asia rising needed most from agricultural revolutions was something asian poorest women villagers could miraculously network with abed alumni

2.1 rice update 2009

 Achievements 2009

Our research has resulted in the development of 3 new

varieties of hybrid rice - HB 9, Shakti 2, and Aloron 2

Over 5, 500 metric tons of our high quality seeds were

marketed through commercial distributors

Our work in Cyclone Sidr-affected areas showed that:

- the proportion of individuals reporting that they could

eat three meals a day increased from 55% in 2008 to

70% in 2009

- hybrid rice farming demonstrations in the coastal

areas showed the potential of three fold increase in

productivity and four-fold increase in profits compared

to farmers’ current practices

In monga affected areas, we introduced fast-growing rice

varieties to create space for a three-crop regime from the

existing two - thereby raising profits and creating 65 more

person days of employment per hectare

We mobilised a USD 75 million refinancing facility from the

Bangladesh Bank to take credit and extension service to

tenant farmers (sharecroppers)
