Borders and Identity in Light of Globalization Soufi Mirfakhraei and Paula Tikka Oulu University, Finland

Answer: An English princess With an Egyptian boyfriend Crashes in a French tunnel, Driving a German car With a Dutch engine, Driven by a Belgian who was drunk On Scottish whisky, (check the bottle before you object to the spelling) Followed closely by Italian Paparazzi, On Japanese motorcycles; Treated by an American doctor, Using Brazilian medicines. This is presented to you by Finnish students, Using Bill Gates's technology, And it is being projected from a Computer, That uses Taiwanese chips, And a Korean monitor, Assembled by Bangladeshi workers In a Singapore plant, Transported by Indian lorry-drivers, Hijacked by Indonesians, Unloaded by Sicilian longshoremen, And trucked to you by Mexican Illegals.....
