Gentlemen

If  you  observe,  the abusive  language  on  Gambia-L  is  usually
caused  by  a  few  People  like that  "Alieu  Keita"  who  come  on  the
L  because  of  personal  issues  they  have  with  themselves.  I  can
confidently  say  that  it is  never  the  wish  of  any  well  meaning
gambian  to  turn  away  the  tourists  but  the  sad  realities  of
toture, kidnappings, intimidations  and  other  vices  by  our  present
govrnment  must  be exposed.

Of  course  these  vices  will  never  be  perpetuated  against  the
tourists  and  the  government  will  do its  best  in  presenting  The
gambia  as  "the  smiling  Coast" .  Being  people  who  are  so
passionate  about  The  Ga
mbia, I  urge  you to  look  at  news  papers
in  the  country  and  or  talk  to  ordinary  Gambians.  You  dont  have
to  be  a  genius  or  a  sociologist  to  see  the  realities  of  the
gambian  situation  as  oppose  to  the  lies  peddled  by  the  government.

We  love  The  gambia  more  than  you  guys  do  and  know  more  about
The  Gambia  than  you  guys  ever  will. About  helping  other  Gambians,
go  look  at  western  unions  books.  The  amount  we  contribute  to
the  development  of  the  gambia  is more  than that  which you  guys
will  ever  put up.

In  our  quest  for  a  better  country,  we  shall  expose  every  rotten
practice  of  the  government  and  if  that  deters  any  tourist  from
visiting, so  be  it.  We  have  survived  centuries  without  tourism
and  we  will  rather  voice  out  our  pains    than  languish  in  it
because  we  hope  to  attract  tourists.
