Mr. Jeng, I think you rightly hit the nail on the head. Anyone that knows the aspirations of Gambians can call them anything but lazy. I've seen first hand the efforts gambians put abroad inorder to provide for their families particularly those back home. I don't doubt a bit that given an environment of economic growth free of intimidation and harassment back home, almost all of us living and working abroad would gladly return home. Until then, let jammeh and his groups of looters and thieves spare us those kiddy excuses. We've seen and heard his types before and like them he'll be called upon to account for his deeds. He should have learned from leaders that went down that track. May God have mercy on his soul when the time co mes for surely Gambians won't. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ To unsubscribe/subscribe or view archives of postings, go to the Gambia-L Web interface at: http://maelstrom.stjohns.edu/archives/gambia-l.html To contact the List Management, please send an e-mail to: [log in to unmask] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
