Madam President: meeting Malawi's Joyce Banda
Today is #UNDay, and I would like to congratulate the United Nations for turning 72, and for all of its achievements throughout its history. I would like to pay special tribute to all of those who have dedicated their lives to its mission, and who have worked so hard to make it what it is today.
On this commemorative occasion, I would like to appeal for:
1)Consideration to open up membership of Africa to the UN Security Council
2)The speedy and timely reponse to calls for intervention in conflict areas to alleviate human suffering.
3)Continued investment in girls to access education and develop their leadership skills

An analysis of the educational background of the top tier of dollar billionaires shows that they are much more likely than average to have gone to university. And they are more likely to have a postgraduate degree than no degree at all.
It doesnt give much support for the image of self-taught entrepreneurs, relying on their own wit and wisdom rather than higher education. The number crunching, by insurance company GoCompare, has examined the post-school education of people appearing in the top 100 billionaire rich lists by Forbes magazine over the past 20 years. It shows that 76 percent of these billionaires have a degree. This breaks down to 47 percent having a bachelors degree, 23 percent a masters degree and a doctorate. The most popular subjects were courses related to economics and engineering. There were many more studying sciences than arts or humanities.
