Fatu Jahumpa Ceesay, I have no problem whatsoever with the fact that you have unequivocally demonstrated yourself as an APRC mouthpiece and lead-rapper but you should respect and acknowledge the political affiliation of others that may defer from yours.You don't expect everbody to share the same view with you, that is human nature! Even Prophet Mohamed(pbuh) had some people or groups opposed to the agenda He endeavored to sell. Thus,it is highly regretable and unfortunate that you keep labelling the oppostion and the press in a negative perspective.As for the vitality of the Press in socio-economic development,I need not bring that to your attention since that's your career.Competition and division of labor is very indispensable in the world order.If everyone thinks the same, feels the same, does the same profession or shares the same views with others,the world would not have been an interesting place to live. Therfore depicting someone different from you as an enemy is not only uncalled-for but also unjust.Yes! it is understandable that you are trying to "survive", but embark on a just and dignified course to achieve that.Most importantly,remember that no condition is permanent and there most be a day of reckoning.Peace. Jobs. _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe/subscribe or view archives of postings, go to the Gambia-L Web interface at: http://maelstrom.stjohns.edu/archives/gambia-l.html You may also send subscription requests to [log in to unmask] if you have problems accessing the web interface and remember to write your full name and e-mail address. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
