Not to take anything away from Jack Ma, it seems it’s easier for Chinese billionaire than for American billionaires because those masks and test kits are mostly made in China. American billionaires can give money but not those made-in-China goods as directly.

One World is Enough by: The Police
quote:
One world is enough For all of us One world is enough For all of us
It's a subject we rarely mention But when we do we have this little invention By pretending they're a different world from me I show my responsibility
One world is enough For all of us One world is enough For all of us
The Third World breathes our air tomorrow We live on the time we borrow In our world there's no time for sorrow In their world there is no tomorrow
One world is enough For all of us One world is enough For all of us
Lines are drawn upon the world Before we get our flags unfurled Whichever one we pick It's just a self deluding trick
One world is enough For all of us One world is enough For all of us
I don't want to bring a sour note Remember this before you vote We can all sink or we all float 'Cos we're all in the same big boat
One world is enough For all of us
It may seem a million miles away But it gets a little closer everyday
One world...

Would it kill you do something useful?
