In the demise of the old' Kerala Model of Development', it is time for the new Kerala development model and strategies based on the solar power, water, land and knowledge under Public-Private Participation for Mega Projects with international funding, expertise and technology. Within five years, Kerala can be transformed as the True God's Own Land'. The proposed New Kerala Model will be useful for the international community and the students of developmental studies.

KERALA'S DEVELOPMENT BASED ON THE SUN, WATER, LAND AND KNOWLEDGE
1. KERALA DEVELOPMENT MODEL & STRATEGIES
BASED ON THE SUN, LAND, WATER AND KNOWLEDGE:
PUBLIC PRIVATE PARTICIPATION (PPP)
FOR MEGA PROJECTS
DR. RAJU M. MATHEW
2. EUROPEAN UNION RESEARCH ON
THE FUTURE INTERNET
• Some of the researchers from the European Union, especially
Finland, Germany, Austria, Belgium, Spain and Portugal who are engaged in the
European Union funded projects on the Future Internet, have found my works on
Knowmatics, Cybernetics of Knowledge, Theories of Knowledge and Knowledge
Banks useful and contacted me.
• They have also brought my attention on some of the successful Public-Private
Participation Projects in the European Union in harnessing the Solar Energy, Water
Purification System and Waste Management. In stead of some solar panels put on
house roof and producing electricity in a very small scale, they have developed
very big solar energy projects to produce energy on a massive scale.
• For the last thirty years, I have been conducting research on the
nature, structure, flow, production, delivery and consumption of Knowledge
besides the technology for knowledge processing, though I am basically an
economist. I formulated two theories of knowledge consumption and
production, propounded Knowmatics – Cybernetics of Knowledge and proposed
Knowledge Banks for augmenting the accessibility, consumption and production of
knowledge and thereby knowledge intensification in all social production
processes. Since the publication of my work on Knowmatics in 2011 by the World
Universities Forum, the higher education wing of the World Economic Forum, the
world is getting realized the strategic importance of Knowmatics.
3. THE FALL AND DECLINE OF THE
‘KERALA MODEL OF DEVELOPMENT’
• During 70s and 80s, the ‘Kerala Model of
Development’ was hailed as a great miracle.
Since 90s, it met with a fall and decline with
depletion of farm lands, increasing water
pollution, acute shortage of pure drinking
water, frequent power failure and mounting
garbage not only in cities but even in remote
villages coupled with declining farm products,
obsolete education and deteriorating public
healthcare.
4. KERALA MEDIA AND CHANNEL CULTURE
• Till the early 70s, country toddy shops, barbershops
and tea shops in Kerala served as the centers for
gossips and heated political or social discussions. Now
competing TV channels have taken up the role of the
old country tea or toddy or barber shops in gossips and
heated political debates and spreading the news of
crimes or scams that too in a mediocre way.
• These channels are a clear indication of the declining
intellectual caliber, educational standards, political
maturity and moral values of the people of Kerala.
Pseudo intellectuals and mediocre public figures
dominate these channels with their ugly and poisonous
words and mannerism. It is time for the media in
Kerala to adopt a mature and socially responsible role.
5. FOOLS RUSH IN WHERE ANGELS
FEAR TO TREAD
• The famous quotation of Alexander Pope “Fools rush in where angels fear to
tread” is very much true in the case of Kerala politics, business, industry, culture
and religion
• Every issue in Kerala is capable of turning into a scam or controversy and a matter
of heated media debates and political or legal battle so as to deviate people from
socially productive activities and engage them unproductively.
• While reputed firms or people with integrity, character and expertise in Kerala
fear to tread, criminals and mediocre rush in politics, ‘solar energy’, ‘teak
plantation’, ‘goat farming’ or ‘real estate’ to cheat people in terms of millions with
attractive investment offers.
• People in Kerala can easily be cheated with the lavish offers of easy money and
unreasonable profits, for their aspiration for high standard of living beyond their
means.
• The latest scam is the solar panel scam engineered by a group of hard core
criminals, even bluffing the former Marxist Party lead left government and the
present Congress Party lead right Government, re-establishing the low or mediocre
intellectual calibre and poor practical political wisdom of these leaders. As a
result, their political debates or visions or strategies do not rise above the level of
elementary school dropouts.
6. KERALA IS HEADING TO
SOCIO-ECONOMIC CATESTROPHE
• Though Kerala is endowed with gifted youth with best brains and
talents, natural beauty, fertile land and frequent rain over six to
eight months, heavy investment for education, it is heading towards
impending crisis for the poor governance coupled with
corruptions, controversy-loving and problem-making political
leadership, irrelevant education system, short-sighted and
disintegrated developmental strategy, frequent power crisis and
above all inefficient waste or garbage disposal and high level water
pollution affecting the health of the people.
• The prevailing hopelessness and pessimism drive many youth
towards crime, suicide, alcoholism and even religious terrorism. An
economic or social catastrophe is inevitable for Kerala, though it has
a great developmental potentialities. Kerala needs urgent measures
and integrated socio-economic development strategies and even
international collaborations to make the life of over 35 million
people better.
7. THIRTY FIVE MILLION PEOPLE QUESTION
• Kerala needs a realistic and integrated development strategy taking into
account the inability of the government to mobilize resources for
development. Who ever comes into power, either the left or the
right, the role of the government is limited to just running the system
with some minor adjustments for the resource shortage. Lack of
capital, poor infrastructure, frequent power failure and non-availability
of land and water for industrial or agriculture purposes do not encourage
private entrepreneurs to emerge and flourish.
• To save the lives of 35 million people, the only option for Kerala is
introducing integrated Projects with Public-Private Participation and
mobilizing international support and expertise in tapping the Solar
Energy on a massive scale, introducing the water purification system and
eliminating water pollution, high-tech garbage or waste management
system, optimal land utilization for the development of agriculture, non-
polluting industry and urban development, modernizing the education
system, developing knowledge industries for the optimal development
and utilization of brain power and knowledge resources.
8. PUBLIC-PRIVATE PARTICIPATION
• Recently, the European Union has successfully developed the technology
for the massive utilization of solar power and to provide electricity to
millions of people and introduced the latest water purification system on
a massive scale besides effective waste or garbage management.
• The Government of Kerala must come forward to introduce Mega Public-
Private Participation (PPP) Projects on solar energy, water
purification, waste management, farm development, educational
reforms and knowledge industries with the financial support and
technology of the European Union and other international agencies.
People will be ready to invest in terms of billions, if well worked out PPP
Projects are introduced.
• The political leaderships must be ready to realize the aspiration of the
people and writing on the wall and thereby dedicate and commit
themselves for such an integrated development strategy rather than
following the scam, controversy and corruption oriented political
manipulations. The media must also adopt a bit more responsible and
pro-people and pro-development approaches, in stead of involving in
negativism, controversies and mediocre political debates.
9. FUNDS AND EXPERTISE
• If the leaders and the people of Kerala are committed
for the cause of the New Integrated Development
Strategy, international funding, expertise and
technology will flow to Kerala in terms of several
billions. Non-resident Keralites with money and
expertise will be ready to rebuild Kerala.
• Within five years we can rebuild Kerala with clean
environment, pure and perennial drinking water
supply, uninterrupted power supply, high quality
infrastructure, most modern education system, well
developed farm lands and poison-free
vegetables, fruits and diary and other farm products
and above all highly sophisticated Knowledge
Industries to engage every educated person in Kerala
with high income.
10. MEGA PPP PROJECTS
• Kerala can successfully and profitably launch two or three
mega solar energy projects to meet its entire power needs;
five to ten mega water purification and supply projects
based on sea, lake and river waters; a chain of the most
modern waste and garbage management projects, a series
of infrastructure projects, most modern education system
comparable to Finland, scientific land utilization projects
and the New Generation Knowledge Industry Project
covering the entire Kerala house holds. These projects must
be under Public-Private Participation. We can mobilize
capital, entrepreneurships, technology and expertise
besides international support for these projects for the
Integrated Development of Kerala so as to eliminate
poverty, pollution, religious terrorism and alcoholism.
11. MAKE THE SHY AND TIMID ANGLES
COURAGEOUS
• Kerala has several well established business and industrial firms, like V-Guard
Industries, Anna Groups and etc. Keralites in other parts of India have established
successful enterprises such as Joythi Laboratories. There are so many Keralities
who are the captains of multi-million dollar business or industrial enterprises in
other countries like Lulu or Shoba Group .
• There are so many rich families in Kerala having millions of dollars worth
investable capital. But they are shy and timid to make use of their wealth and
expertise for the integrated development of Kerala for the lack of favorable
conditions and high level corruption of the politicians and bureaucrats coupled
with jealous and angry political leaders, religious leaders and trade union leaders
who are the beneficiaries of the crisis and poverty of Kerala.
• It is a historical necessity to emerge a new breed of political, religious, cultural,
industrial, business ,media and trade union leadership in Kerala for the
Integrated Development of Kerala. In the coming election, both the Congress
Party lead UDF and Marxist Party lead LDF besides the BJP have no other option
but to adopt the Integrated Development Strategy for a New Kerala Model and
implement mega projects for Solar Energy, Water Purification, Waste and
Garbage Management, Infrastructure Development, Educational Reform,
Knowledge Industries and above all Scientific and Optimal Land Utilization.
12. AN HUMBLE PLEA
• This is a humble plea put forward for the consideration of all
political parties and their leaders, all religions and communities
and above all media and channel people in Kerala for safeguarding
the interest of 35 million people in Kerala.
• We have to mobilize funds and expertise or technologies for the
integrated development of Kerala. Otherwise, we are doing an
unpardonable crime against 35 million people and the generations
to come.
• Leaders and Politicians or Governments may come and go, but the
people will remain forever. Without bothering the
people, especially the young, nobody can enter the Heaven or
Paradise whatever maybe one’s faith and religious practices.
• Let the people enjoy at least some of the pleasures of Heaven or
Paradise while they are alive and thereby make Kerala God’s Own
Land for over 35 million people.
