The term Gross Domestic Product is often talked about as if it were “handed down from god on tablets of stone.” But this concept was invented by an economist in the 1930s. We need a more effective measurement tool to match 21st century needs, says Michael Green: the Social Progress Index. With charm and wit, he shows how this tool measures societies across the three dimensions that actually matter. And reveals the dramatic reordering of nations that occurs when you use it.

Just a quick note of thanks to anyone and everyone working on the Bahasa Indonesia version of the subtitles for Michael Green's talk on the Social Progress Index.
We had a volunteer create a complete set of draft subtitles, and that volunteer plans to get on the Amara platform on the next several days. If anyone can make use of his draft text earlier, please contact me and I will send it on.
Sincerely,
Jonathan Talbot

Hi Jonathan,
I am currently halfway through translating Green's talk. I just joined TED OTP a few days ago and just getting the hang of it. I'm not really sure how I can use the draft you mentioned or how I can collaborate with you. I will try to finish translating the talk in the next one or two days and would very much welcome anybody who are willing to review it later.
Regards,
Jimmy Welles

Our volunteer Joshia can be reached at: joshiamanggala15@gmail.com . I think his project is the one at the other link in an earlier comment that has been approved - but I'm not sure.
