The Urban Dao Child.

Yang Dao was unaware that a certain person has taken interest in meeting him. The boy calmly sat down in front of Mr. Nicholson. The two people talked about a lot many things such as his future way of growth, etc. 

Upon being asked how does the welfare policy of the company stand opposite to the government of the country. Yang Dao elaborated on how the welfare policies will work. The boy said, "The primary goal of this policy is to provide the needy people with aid. We developed selection criteria for whom do we provide aid to. The people who cannot earn enough to eat and are suffering are the primary targets. 

These people will go through a medical examination, financial inspection, and psychological inspection as well. What we intend to do is to provide sufficient aid so that these people can live well. At the same time, we do not want them to be too dependant on the aid and will give them knowledge and jobs to earn what they need and desire."

Nicholson asked, "Well, I guess the medical examination and financial examination are quite self-explanatory but why do you need a Psychological inspection as well?" his question was what a lot of people wanted to ask. 

Yang Dao smiled and said, 'When you face too much misery and pain, your mind becomes numb to the joy and pleasure, or it becomes too sensitive to them. In both cases, the subject is driven to the edge of madness. If the psychological inspection does result as such, then we can have the people go through proper counseling and rehabilitation."

Nicholson could not help but applaud at this point. He also asked, "There are countless such people, who need help. You also said that you will arrange jobs for them. How do you plan to accomplish that?"

The boy said, "We humans, grow at the cost of natural degradation. We consume resources but we do not know how to give them back. This will be the job of these people. They will learn how to preserve nature for us. This was my idea when I decided this, A helping hand to take care of nature." 

His words left everyone shocked. They did not expect this boy to be so farsighted. Nicholson was struck in a daze for a few moments. He was old and experienced but rarely did he came across such a wise youngster. 

The interview ended with applause from the camera unit and the staff. Yang Dao stood up with a smile and nodded. Then with Laohu Bai, he went back. 

...

While Yang Dao was going home to rest, the nation was boiling. A forum was established on the internet. It was called, Help The Helping Hand. The motive of this server was to gather the masses and pressure the government officials to pass the project. 

The government's basis of rejection or hold was that the project was almost equal to a private government. The scale of this project was nationwide, yet the proposing party said that it is a non-profit project. What was the guarantee? 

This was the statement issued by the government official in question. Yang Dao was watching all this at home. He logged into his company's website and using the administration rights he had, posted, "Thank you, everyone, for your support and well wishes. The government is also thinking in the favor of the people. After all, what is the guarantee that Dao Technologies will not turn corrupt? So, to make sure that everyone can rest easy. The company will make the accounts and operations of the Helping Hand division open for the public eye. 

Any defects and flaws in the operations will be under the scrutiny of the masses and they will also have the right to complain and suggest some changes for the improvisation of the project. We here at Dao technologies believe that everyone will raise a helping hand with an open heart. Wish you a good day."

His one statement made the supporters go bonkers. The government now had no grounds to hold this project back. The official did not reply and everyone thought that he was busy with the procedures. 

However, contrary to that, in the divisional office, a man sat with a solemn face. He was the official in charge of this file. This man was a fish that fled from the net of the raids. Or you can say that among so many big fish nobody paid attention to a krill. After the raids, he thought that since there is no tiger in the jungle the monkey is the king. 

Well, too bad, he wanted to have under the table dealing with The Dao Technologies. The dealings were for him to get a cut from the money generated from the project. All the key features were marked in the file submitted to the office and he obviously knew how much money it was. 

How was he to know that Yang Dao would put him under the public eye, with one move? Just as he was thinking what to do and what not to do the phone on the table rang. He picked up the phone and said "Who is it?"

From the other side, a sullen voice sounded, "Official Samuel Luther. You are called to the prime minister's office with all the documents and stuff related to the Helping hand project. You have fifteen minutes to report." 

The call was disconnected and the man sat there like a puppet with no life. He snapped out of his daze, gathered the documents, and ran straight to the prime minister's office. 

...

After an hour of Yang Dao's statement, the prime minister's office issued a statement. "On the behalf of the whole nation, I thank Dao Technologies, for coming up with such an initiative. The government will provide you all reasonable support. Let us make the world a better place together."

These two sentences may seem simple, but the weight they carried was too much. The prime minister, who rarely comments on something publicly, made a statement supporting a nationwide project. That means the project has passed and everyone can enjoy the benefits sooner.
