'Marshall Plan of the Mind'
September 27, 1996
It takes a Know How Fund (KHF) to back a Marshall Plan of the Mind (MPM). As the US aided Western Europe after World War II, Britain finds new ways to aid Central and Eastern Europe and Central Asia after communism. "How Business Works" is one of the MPM radio programs (BBC) by which KHF spreads instruction as it sows money. Example: $14 million will go to privatizing Russian farms beyond the 60 as of last year.
In all projects ($120.5 million in 1994/95) KHF stresses transferring know-how to recipients so they can carry on themselves. We think it's a wonderful idea. Trust the land of kippers for breakfast to follow the gift of a fish with a few words on the art of catching them.
