We have been in Brazil for a week, and spent Xmas Day today out in the Amazon, in a Jungle camp trying to catch Piranha fish!

A Forum here is long overdue - if only for me to campaign against the insane current attitudes of the Brazil Consuls in USA/Canada/Australia about granting Visas.

And for urging the Govt. to dynamite both Sao Paulo and Rio airports real soon, and madly start re-building them in a 21st century fashion. To replace the cute and totally hopeless 1960s structures presently there!

They MAY then be on rough par with the rest of the world by the time of the Olympics.

This country has near 200 MILLION residents, and has a tiger economy, and strong currency - it certainly warrants a FT Forum. PERIOD.
