The world should have the same textbooks.

For example, students all over the world should study

mathematics from same textbooks. The same would go for

natural and social sciences. A diploma from India has to be
equally valid as that from any other country in the world. These

changes take time, but they have to be planned and not subject
to improvisations as it happens today. The profession of teaching

must be recognized throughout the world.

While we are at it, we should tackle a huge historic issue that
should be thoroughly studied and analyzed.

The language of communication in the future must be one and
only. Throughout history there were disputes as to which

language would dominate the communication between states
and people. Efforts were made to create a new language that

would contain words from many languages.

Different languages dominated in different periods. Nowadays, it
is the English language. It is prevalent in the spheres of politics,

commerce and in all other communications.

No matter which language will be used, it must be the first

language in every country, which means the first and only

language in the whole, and the second language will be the
mother tongue.
