Greeting

 Once you taste aloofness

 Feelings of perplexity wells up

Once you have an understanding of that crass interior

The bubble of illusion swells up

 Only to burst…

Welcome to reality

 Welcome veracity.

The Ivory Coast conflict

The West African nation of Ivory Coast also known as Côte d’Ivoire was once a prospering nation. But since a 2002 civil war, the country has been divided by conflict. In November 2010, in office president, Laurent Gbagbo, refused to accept his defeat in a presidential election to Alassane Ouattara. He had postponed this election for many years.

Circumstances

‘For me it’s always about first impressions. I trust my instincts. I love to prepare if it’s something that requires training. But I don’t like to prepare the psychology too much. I enjoy the psychology of the character but I work better from a first impression. ‘

Plight of Bangladeshi migrant workers

Saudi Arabia and other parts of the world  have neglected and mistreated migrant workers without being given the basic human rights.

Around 90,000 Bangladeshi migrant workers live and work in Bahrain, 10 per cent of the total population of that country. In the year 2006-07, these migrants sent $80 million in remittances home. But the recent murder of a Bahraini man by a Bangladeshi worker has sparked angry reactions from government officials and politicians. The Bahrain government has put a ban on recruitment of any further ‘untrained’ workers from Bangladesh. Saudi Arabia, Kuwait and Malaysia had already put restrictions on Bangladeshi laborers, sparked by earlier incidents. As often highlighted at seminars, foreign remittance is the second highest foreign currency earner for Bangladesh. But indifference from our embassies, corrupt middlemen, flawed immigration policies, lack of a strong government response and disparities in labor laws have placed hard-working men and women in international news headlines for the wrong reasons.

Its been a year……………

 

It has been a year since the terrible and ghastly incident. The brutal deaths, the murderous rampage, those dark 3 nights- has seen a year.

What we have yet to see is justice being served.

Only the families of these departed souls know how they are suffering, we can’t relate to their pain. The once trapped hostages relives those horrid days over and over again.

A wife lost her husband who had nothing to do with the mutiny, 4 months later she lost her only son(7 years old) who became sick at the loss of his father.

Now she is left with nothing…………………………….

Money won’t bring back their beloved.

Only proper trial will. It has been a year and the only thing the government has been able to do is open the case???!!!!

It makes us wonder whether our legal system will ever be effective?

Don’t give us fake hope, give these honourable soldiers the respect that they deserve.
