If the corporations cannot improve its profitability, many more people will lost their jobs ultimately.
As the economic role of multinational², global corporations expands, the international economic environment will be shaped increasingly not by governments or international institutions, but by the interaction between governments and global corporations.
Traditionally, people think that companies are set up for making profit, not for saving our planet. Today, however, more and more multinational companies adopt the Corporate³ Social Responsibility Policy (CSR policy).

Architecture
The Potala Palace is Tibet’s cardinal⁶ landmark⁷ and a structure that deserves a place as one of the wonders of eastern architecture. The Potala palace was built by Songtsen Gampo, the first king of Tibet, in the 7th century. The roof and many other parts of the Palace were decorated by pure gold, which was contributed by the Buddhist⁸ in Tibet.

This building dedicates not only to religious belief but also to the accommodation place-over a thousand Lamas live in it today. Shaped by the people of Tibet, the Potala Palace has a far-reaching influence on the Tibetan’s religion as well as every day lives.

The tower itself is 315 meters high, and the unique style and spectacular appearance has made it one of the most distinguished⁹ buildings in the world.

The BOC tower has not only recorded a glorious page in the construction history of Hong Kong but also highlighted the new phases of expansion in Hong Kong.

OPEC is one of the best examples. OPEC, the Organization of Petroleum¹⁴ Exporting Countries, is an international organization of eleven developing countries that are heavily reliant on oil revenues as their main source of income.

In the long run, the stabilized¹⁵ out-put help to cease the problem of over-refining and over utilization¹⁶ of oil energy.
Nowadays, developed countries already masters the technology of using more efficiency and economical energy resources, such as water and solar energy, while the traditional and wasted energy still dominates in the developing countries. International cooperation enables the technology transfer between developed countries and developing countries and devotes to the benefit of entire human beings. A worldwide leader can speed up the decision-making progress and enhance the solidarity¹⁷ among the member countries.
