Listening to the VOA News webcast as I'm writing this blog. Lot of information pouring in. In Mexico, this guy says, the Santa Claus wears a green costume. Everywhere else he wears a red one. The reason, he doesn't know.
Someone from India requested a romantic song to be played for his girl-friend. A song sung by Celine Dion. Wonder who'd bother to call US from India and request for a song to be played on VOA. Socho, it is not Radio Mirchi 98.3 FM. Definitely software guy. Misusing company facilities. A lot of my friends do that. I don't :-)
Las Vegas is the number one tourism destination for International Travellers in the US.
Sala another song. Bolta kam hai gana zyada bajata hai. May be this not the right time for VOA. Let's switch to BBC.
BBC is louder. I had to decrease the volume....The news reader is stammering.
Indian News!!!! Dalits pay homage to Baba Saheb Ambedkar on his 50th death anniversary. The Kanpur statue desecration issue mentioned. Indian correspondent, Zuber Amir in Mumbai - giving background of caste system in India, practices of untouchability etc....LTTE news...2 Palestinians shot by Israelis at Gaaza...this issue can give takkar to Kashmir issue...
A hospital in Malaysia refuses to release the body of a man whose religious identity is not clear....whether he was a Muslim or a Christian. The man, some Anthony, was originally a Christian. He converted to Islam in 1990 but converted back to Christianty in 1999 without informing the Muslim authorities, which refuse to allow him to be buried in the Christian way. Now it's not clear how to perform his last rites.
Bush has lost support from the American public for the war with Iraq. Sectarian violence in Iraq...
The teenages in Britan say that they don't feel trusted by their parents generation. But teenagers in India say that they like to take their parents' opinions. Russian and Georgian teenagers love arts and literature. Palestinian teenagers are scared to go out freely. Anybody can be shot any time. The program is called Generation-Next and connects teenagers all over the world. It's great...
