Kara Renato, jen mia proponata revizio (ŝanĝoj diklitere), sed pliaj plibonigoj certe eblas :
"Esperanto: Language
of communication and growth among our BRICS States
Together, BRICS
States represent 40 per cent of the world’s population, and our
economy is rapidly growing. The BRICS are now embarking on a number
of joint ventures and taking initiatives on common interests.
If Member States
want to cooperate with the aim of enabling more economic
growth, it is of paramount importance to gradually embrace a
neutral common language which in our view would be an easier
task to implement and a more cost-effective one than the use of the
BRICS member States' main languages, as these would
overwhelm the countries’ learning systems only to produce
half-baked results.
Esperanto, a language recommended by UNESCO for its member States, including the
BRICS countries, would be the solution to the above-mentioned dilemma
and had been intended to be taught in our schools. It was
only due to manipulation by the current super-powerful
countries that that particular recommendation has to date
not been given due attention.
It is well known that
language diversity among countries in economic partnership
will always have implications, such as an increase in
translation and related costs, while ultimately limiting what
would otherwise be achieved had a neutral language
been in use for economic cooperation and development. It is in our
view possible to come up with a practical solution without
falling into a trap of one-sided hegemony, provided we adopt a proposed
bilingual system which de facto would be made possible by the use of
a common neutral language (Esperanto). As BRICS countries we should
take advantage of the fact that the movement for the promotion of an
international neutral language has been in our midst for quite a long
time and its traditions have taken root.
We invite our
progressive BRICS’ governments to demonstrate courage by paving the
way to following the UNESCO recommendations cited earlier, as
this is a just cause and the right thing to do, potentially
helping the people of our countries to be who they always wanted to
be while being able to relate to the rest of the population
of the world.
