Mawdo Demba,
You couldn't have summarize it any better. Taiwan is our last stop.... The Allah central bank is going bankrupt...
Mawdo Baba, I was surprised by the low coverage of this doctorate. I recalled how the observer would run full stories on "funny" awards from all over.... May be its coming soon

It is strange that no actual description of the doctorate itself is in the news. Or did I miss it? If I did not, one hopes that perhaps it would come. Gambians would like to know whether it is a doctorate of laws, a doctorate of sciences, or one of those "doctorates" conferred on people who have violated some Chinese value - a doctorate of shame perhaps, for having misappropriated funds meant for the people and thereby broken some hallowed Chinese custom and rule of engagement? I know this sounds unlikely but one never knows with Chinese culture. Or is it a doctorate in puppet techniques, issued by neo-colonial Taiwan to one of its most obedient subjects? The Fropessor rants againts Western neo-colonialism, but dutifully kneels before Chinese neo-colonialism with open arms, totally oblivious of the irony of his funny situation. One hopes that the Observer throws some more light on our rather silent new doctorate.
