Hi friends: For those who know I picked two candidates successfully last year and two years ago, this is my new pick for this year. Nobel Peace Prize: Albanian town Kukes, where estimated 150000 refugees from Kosovo,Yugoslavia lived in the period of conflict. Let us see what happens.This is a pure guess, though it is likely derivative from previous trend. After the cold war, no longer are the enemy of communists more likely to be honored with the prize. In fact, the trend indicates a healthy sense of what peace constitutes, and actually, a broad definition of peace has emerged.Amartya Sen, Judy Williums, Doctors without border are the examples of trend. Will two Kims from Korea be runner up? Let's hope so.But why to include Kim Jong Ill by the way?
