What do you really think about the global recession?

"I don't know about that... oh, you mean how everything - petrol and everything - is so expensive? Yes, it's been very hard. But now I hope things will be better, now that petrol is cheaper. I hope so. It must get better before the World Cup comes in 2010. I hope so..."
