V.I.G.Menon, Vyloppilly.
Types of Energy Requirement
1.Fundamental energy derived from nature makes machines
work
2.The Physical energy, of the people , as mere calories ,help
transferring, moving ,the materials (or code pieces) across work
stations.
3.The Intellectual/emotional energy using which people
design the production /cultural/governance process such as a
sequence of heating, hammering, forging and so on or decide the
work flow.In a software process or in government.
4.The Social energy

individuals across the organization to run a production/service system and
earn profits for the organization.
4b.The Social Energy of the Leadership of the Nation organises
human behavior so that the cross-organization or cross- people or
People-Organization transactions can be error and so conflict free !
Remember Error is Terror
5. Finally the Spiritual Energy ,make people understand the
value of values such as ;dharma/righteousness, duty,prayer for welfare of all
or the self ,so on for harmonious growth of all ..
2.The Physical Energy of
the People
This is the sheer mechanical power
we use in lifting, moving etc. of
ourselves, or, anything .
Such Energy of the Raw/Skilled labour
makes production systems run more
efficiently.
This Energy Comes From the food
essentially.
But health is the main actor..eg an aging
labor force make economy slow
Physical Energy of People Manifests
in Four Major Ways
As General Health Of The Citizens
As Labour force of the Nation
As a Nations Sporting and Athletic
Might.
As unruly Mob Power in Hartals,
Political Goonda-Giri, Fisticuffs in
Families or in Public
The Programme Types That Liberate

Safety At Home & work Place Or in Travel Programmes

The Cobb-Douglas Equation
The Cobb-Douglas Equation relates
the Contribution of Labour and
Capital in the Production of an
economy ,roughly as
Production Qty = KL
a
C
b

Which gives the Production quantity as a product of capital Cand
labour L through their dependence factor (elasticity) a or b
on output multiplied by a constant K (indicating productivity of
eg,in a micro economy).
Thus to improve productivity,we can increase capital
equipments and reduce raw labour,or increase trained
labour
Learning Point 3
Learning Point 3 : All production systems
should continually improve their
technologies (and Skills) to meet gfbcv
criteria for economic outputs.
Where gfbcv means, Greener, Speedier, Better,
Cheaper,and Larger Volume Scale of Products/Services.
Caution:As the Country Develops,the raw
labour shortage will increase and robotics
may have to step in.

The Uncultured Physical Force
It is the Potential Disorder that causes People To
People, People Vs Government Conflicts Resulting in
Physical Violence , including Violence Against
Women.
Solution:
Individuals Should be facilitated to imbibe cultural and
ethical values from their own Religion.
HR Ministry Should Focus On Cultural Training through
formal and informal education to all
