Segou's calling!
How are you? I've heard in France that we no longer spoke of the case Bettancourt or pension reform, but the death of the French hostage.
is a nasty business execution ...
Where I am is also a nasty for Mali. Just like Afghanistan, can not now speak of Mali que pour la présence d'AQMI dans le nord du pays. D'ailleurs, plutôt que de parler de Nord Mali, il faudrait mieux parler de Sahara. Ce n'est même pas un Etat ce territoire, c'est un no man's land. Comment un pays parmi les plus pauvres au monde peut contrôler un territoire désertique plus grand que la France ? Si les têtes pensantes de la colonisation avaient mieux utilisé leurs règles au moment du partage de la région, ils auraient pris en compte la dimension du pays qu'ils dessinaient, 2.5 grand comme la France, avec des zones incontrôlables. Je connais des pays riches qui ne parviennent pas à ce que des quartiers urbains soient en sécurité. Il ne faut donc pas blâmer le Mali si des groupes mal intentioned exploit past mistakes ...
Here, people are concerned that 400 armed guy in the desert prepared to succeed as wrong in Mali. The country known for its warmth, friendliness and hospitality can be found on the red list of dangerous destinations. We must understand that the Northern Mali has nothing to do with the rest of Mali. In the north, the region is inhabited by nomads and some desert populations that have settled. In these areas, there is no more than 5 people per km ². The rest of Mali, are areas to hundreds or even thousands of kilometers from the North ... It comprises a day of travel. Mopti, the area further north of the "green" area, and also the most touristy area of Mali, it is almost two days drive from Timbuktu, the beginning of the red zone. Malians are concerned that Westerners leave the country and tourism, among the major revenue of the country, collapsed in fear of recent events. It is however safer than some neighborhoods in French ...
I hope the tension will fall and that Mali will manage to resolve the recurring issue of "North" with the support of other countries ...
Regarding the job, this episode has a direct effect on the activity on site. Volunteers français qui étaient en mission au Mali, dans des régions tout à fait sûres, ont été rappelés par leur entreprise. Ils ont été contraints d'écourter leur "congé solidaire". La peur permet bien des choses. Il y a deux jous, j'ai appris qu'une vingtaine de volontaires qui devaient venir au Mali ne viendront plus car leur employeur craint pour eux, malgré nos propos rassurants... En quelques heures, plusieurs semaines de boulot foutue en l'air et 1/6ème de l'activité partie en fumée... Le plus dur dans l'histoire, c'est d'expliquer cela aux bénéficiaires des formations qui s'étaient préparés et organisés depuis longtemps pour recevoir des formations who will not take place ... and they really need.
This story gives a little vacation to our friends Eric and Lillian! The least thing they would come to Mali.
My mission in Segou ends tomorrow morning, at the same time as my mission in Mali. I take the plane tomorrow evening. In Segou, I had the pleasure of meeting women's associations dynamic leader with real women. With Yann, we also met our employees Mali. Much has been shared with them. It's been very interesting and exciting for the team cohesion and appreciation of their work. I hope it will bear fruit field.
I kiss you and tell you soon!
(soon 4000:))
