Dear YES members and affiliates,

We here at Gaming Ventura, an Intl. Youth Enterprise Company, have been
following this discussion with interest for a long time now. We are part
of YES Pakistan and are connected with this wonderful community in that
respect.

We have managed to effectively tackle, if not completely solve, most of
the youth problems that have been discussed on this listserv within our
own domain. And doing is so much more important than discussing or
debating- which is why this message carries practical suggestions with
it. There are theoretically infinite ways to tackle common global youth
issues of empowerment & education, poverty, social responsibility and
reform. But the most practical, simple and shortest line that connects
all the above points is the line of entrepreneurship. By encouraging
young people to be entrepreneurs in business, society and life, you not
only empower them to change their own lives, but you also effectively
deal with poverty, education and social responsibiltiy. The fact that
encouraging enterprise among young people takes so few resources to do
makes this a proposition difficult to say no to. Organizations and
individuals who have been actively involved with social or business
enterprise, especially in 3rd World countries, will agree with me that
this seems to be the best way out.

Gaming Ventura was created in the 1990's around the engine of
enterprise. And through it, we've empowered young people to change their
own lives. Visit us at www.gv.com.pk

I would love to hear everyone's thoughts.
