<div dir="ltr">Dear fellows and friends,<div><br></div><div>I sadly have to take up Mwendwa's concern about hammering of views in this forum. It is true it happens more often especially when emotional intelligence is not applied by contributors - we should all call a spade a spade but politely please? However it is only if it is the TRUTH. </div><div><br></div><div>Every 'view' is a view in its own right otherwise why waste time discussing? However, there are some discussions which take issues no where! That is when the 'hammering' kicks in - sometimes not politely but hey! one has to give room to characteristics to show up without spoiling the party though....</div><div><br></div><div>That is all for now on this I think.</div><div><br></div><div>Kind regards</div><div><br></div><div>Yassin</div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On 6 November 2014 14:45, Mwendwa Kivuva <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:Kivuva@transworldafrica.com" target="_blank">Kivuva@transworldafrica.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><span class=""><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On 6 November 2014 14:23, ymshana2003 <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:ymshana2003@gmail.com" target="_blank">ymshana2003@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">Better to do the Homework by informing and influencing our respective governments to avoid possible embarrassing situations.</blockquote></div><br></div></span><div class="gmail_extra">I think we should be open to welcoming all voices and thoughts.
