There are many happenings around the world that will certainly deliver adverse effects to the world's economy and its sustainable development. Japan is facing the aftermath of earthquake, tsunami and nuclear radiation. These incidents will certainly affect the country's economic and social stability in the long run. The government is still find ways to minimise the impact but it is still not clear how they want to do it. At the same, time the world has shown its support to Japan in any possible methods. The nuclear radiation is not only affecting the wellbeing of its people but also impacting the most important neccessity in life; food. There is now concerns over the safety of food produced in Japan, not only for domestic consumption but also exports. Many foreign countries have taken precautionary measures on imported foodstuff from Japan; some countries have banned imports and some of them have stepped up inspection on incoming foodstuff from Japan for the fear of nuclear radiation effects on the farming as well as livestocks. Japan is taking every possible measures to mitigate the risk of having foodstuff contaminated with radiation.

Middle East and North African's crisis have also shaken the world by storms with the uprising of the people demanding for change. This has probably never happened in the past where the protests happened in many countries simultaneously. The instability in the countries and regions will certainly affect the ongoing development in the country and will take long time to recover.

Mother nature is making its calls to all parts of the world. Earthquakes, tsunamis, flood, hurricanes, storms and others are taking places in many countries and these will interrupt the present development. But probably this is the price that the world has to pay for all the development that probably go against the mother nature.

One thing for sure all these incidences will bring about social instability in the region, it is just a matter of the degree of seriousness. Food insecurity is a main issue to handle, as the prices of agricultural products have gone up drastically in tandem with the price increase of energy resources. Countries have started to invest in agricultural sector, not only back home but also in other countries to safeguard the long term supply of food. All of us need to ponder and act fast to rectify this problem, otherwise the future generation need to bear all the problems that the current generation has created.
