  1. Just tell us the web site where we can access the doc. No one is going to read those volumes you are contemplating publishing in venarcular. Its sheer waste of resources

  2. @ Matador. These people are totally unbelievable in the way they look at issues. One wonders which world they live in. I don’t know when the e-government they sing about will be actualized.

  3. Look at that Chibaula Silwamba in the photo taking selfies when he is representing the country…kaponyas have no class even in Paris at an important meeting!!
