I was there shortly before the palace burnt down. I hope your parents stay safe from the turmoil until it settles down.

It's incredible that this leader can live with himself and spend this amount of money when he must know that most of his people are unhappy, poor, and hungry!

One of my profs at the University was from Madagascar and she use to tell us about people over there and a little bit of Madagascar history. That was few years ago. Two years ago, she was able to secure a fund from the Canadian government to help preventing cervical cancer in women in Madagascar. <BR/>I guess that the conflict of interests and corruption and misuse of power is the main problem of all "developing countries" after getting independence.<BR/><BR/>I will follow the news and see what's going to happen? I hope that the people of Madagascar has the will to stand for themselves and change all that but likely with no violence.Khaled KEMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16056388277824598564noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-688566251618947246.post-30114719857048347012009-02-10T06:36:00.000-08:002009-02-10T06:36:00.000-08:00Poor Lala Ema, I hope your island is peacefully se...Poor Lala Ema, I hope your island is peacefully settled soon. Why is it that our leaders have to dissappoint us so? I feel for your mother. She seems to understand how to balance wealth and responsibility. When political leaders are tempted with money and the good life, how often they discourage us. It's like that in Puerto Rico too. So many political figures do under-handed deals. It's often in the news. Many get caught but it still goes on. May your family be safe. May your island be eased through these difficult times. May you have cause to laugh and play soon, dear Lala Ema.Cynthia Pittmannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12656761837022197235noreply@blogger.com
