The Belly Dancing..


An American entertainment director had named the female dancing imported from the Middle East as “Belly Dancing..” This type of entertainment performed by dancers from Syria, Lebanon, Egypt and Turkey; was the main show on The Egyptian Theater in New York in 1930th.. Later, in 1950th, the State shut down the theater, banned the performance for its immoral contents..!!
In modern history of the Middle East, long and various controversies were endless; on concepts, purpose and morality of this type of dancing. Amazing collection of bylaws, rulings and codes had been attached to this performance. Banned through Ramadhan, Compulsory belly cover, Professional League, Ultimate ban, or No-role; are some of the debates in Turkey, Lebanon, Egypt in particular. Other Middle Eastern countries have limited contribution in the matter. The performance is commonly performed behind closed doors among female gathering, in occasions or fests. 20 years ago; it had migrated and invaded the western hemisphere; while Indians had extracted some motions into theirs.
It is originally created by the ancient Arab Bedouins in Northern Arabian Peninsula, then migrated to ancient Egypt grooming with their entertainment female dancing that painted on the Pharos walls. The 1st breakthrough was in 1500th Mamlouk palaces, when had been a ritual in their lavish parties and sensational life style. The vast collection of female slaves with their diverse ethnic and culture backgrounds, had created lots of adjustments, additions and harmony to the performance. The 2nd breakthrough was brought by a Lebanese Dancer in Egypt in 1930th, who had set the principle motions and sentences. Later in 1960th, Egypt had witnessed trials to groom the performance with Ballet, which did not had the sufficient enthusiasm.
There are three types of this performance: Belly Dance; which is typically a world known with various schools aims to formalize it. Raqs Sharqi or Oriental Dance; which performed in Turkey and Arab Middle Eastern countries, with traditional schools of performance that limits innovations to costumes. Bedouin Dance or Raqs Baladi in most of MENA region; which is performed among villagers in particular ; and is the most relevant to the origin.
No doubt that it is not permitted among Muslims, despite violations and deviations. This would be in line with other religions which refuse any public expressions of intimacy or sensational appeal.

Incredible Indian Subcontinent


My personal passion to Indian Subcontinent is well known for many who knows me.. Usually; my attractions to any culture are extracted from the its conceptual build up of epistemic mind set, common code of behavior and ethics, and convenient openness to others of the world.. Therefore, I believe that an Indian voyage for 3-5 months are essential to anyone claims to know Mankind..!!
Indian Subcontinent is one of the historic centers for knowledge and technology; with schools and scholars who had provided the world with philosophical insights and scientific referrals; while humbly yet extensively contributed to global knowledge.. Some may read such fact as Malthusian nature of a populous nation.. Others read as a melting point among several ancient civilizations that met in the Indus Valley.. Both are true..
The Mehrgarh and Harappan cultures were known in northern Indian subcontinent since 7000BC; which were followed with many others all over the vast territories.. The rise and decline of its empires, kingdoms, sultanates and dynasties; tell about how vast and resourceful it is.. I usually use the term “Subcontinent”; as the political and religious partitions were meant for colonial and political divide and control, rather than response to any historical or cultural facts.. Many fingers had managed to disturb the Subcontinent social and cultural fabrics, creating political tensions among its people; which regretfully had monopolized the mind-set of many Indians, Pakistanis, and Bengalis as well.. It is a fact that India has vast history, which is very complicated for outsiders to trace or understand, apart from the British..!!
Today, many intellectuals and politicians enjoy the dangerous and impressive play on religious chords, which concluded in 1.5 billion peoples who are allocating big portions of their resources for ridicules military and political competitions; while rates of poverty, efficient public service, adequate health care and proper education are considerably low.. The amazing fact that derivates of economic wealth, technological breakthrough, and industrial achievements are swallowed by corrupt politician and businessmen..yet the Subcontinent citizen is incredibly survive to earn living, knowing that much of his effort will not benefit back..!! Maybe this is the ancient civilization lesson on how to keep standing, dreaming and scarify for your beloved ones.. This is the Indian Mystery..
Hopefully, one day, the people will get together again, in a time of mega super powers.. that are driven by historical and geographical facts more than conceptual and controversial ones..

Neda Agha Soltan.. An Iranian Icon

A young woman named Neda Soltani was murdered by Iranian security forces that was captured on video and spread quickly for the entire world to see. The term "The whole world is watching" has a new meaning. Not only was this incident captured on video, it has also become an entry into Wikipedia. And much of this information was spread throughout Iran on Mir Hossein Mousavi's facebook page.
The graphic on the right has become a rallying cry for the government opposition forces. Neda will most certainly become a martyr for this movement. And this, coupled with evidence that turnout exceeded 100% has not reassured opposition forces.
Her death is a big mark, not only in Iranian History, but also in Global Order, as no barriers, no boarders, no partitions among the peoples and their rightful interests.

Tell me why..

A kid asked:
Tell me why there are many people in need..?
Tell me why; we cannot help each other..?

I simply answered; because:
Money became a product, to buy..
Greed became a moral, to value.. and
Devil concurred the Hearts..!!

Egypt Quest


During the last 30 years; Egypt-Quest was torn between facts and denial.. As many reformists were fought back by graduated others, while wealth-lobbyist were also cheered by others..
Throughout the thousands of years, the game of musical chairs verses power chairs, between knowledge-making verses money-making, true soul of the Nile culture was rusted or hidden beneath unbelievable amount of intellectual rubbish..
Unconsciously, many people kept the faith; while rational slogan of Egypt-pride were slowly replaced with hysterical Egypt-love.. Thus, yet as always was the case in Egypt's history; fetal trap was set for many whereas growing shaken and doubtful convections drove the common to lose all grounds.. Simply, victims of unreasonable wealth-climber yet intellectuals who poisoned the conscious lives of many millions..
Egypt was always a melting pot for surrounding cultures, where all humane experiences were groomed along the fertile Nile Valley.. Always was open for new without priggism, as its ever-revival soul was fed with the latest; making it a Mecca for all change-seekers..
Unfortunately, dramatic change took place, as resistance of life-killers created mixed sense of envy, street-smartness (fahla'wah) and bitterness.. No more new-comers came in to feed the vivid Egyptian soul.. Therefore, it had to look inside, giving life for historical and out-dated concepts and models.. Thus, conservatives and intolerant streams flourished..
Ironically, the intelligentsia could not stand for the battle, withdrawn or migrate.. even inside Egypt.. New gated communities and hide-out townships grow like mad.. Cafe-Riche closed its doors for 15 years, as description of intellectual was downgraded to any degree holder..
What took place in Egypt is less dramatic than USSR or eastern Europe, where freedom from wealth-game had allowed spirits to fly, and when recalled, anarchy took place.. This is why Chinese stick hard to their out-dated regime, knowing that chaos will be the future..!! Egypt alike all oriental nations; is driven by Patriarchy, where somebody had to drive the whole nation.. either to heaven or to hell.. Oriental code of Democracy is absent, as true application of the “Prince” which could not survive for long in Europe..!!
Hopefully, some Hero will come out of this dark age, and do something..!!
You got to read it carefully, as coming from close outsider who knows well the insiders..!!

The Jewish State




What I like in the Israeli quest; is their merge between scientific and political justifications. Therefore; Jewish claims are always unbeatable; unless blood would take it over from words. Regretfully, Arabs do not read history, despite their hysterical love of history. Therefore their intellectual battles are deemed to be lost..!!
The historical speech of Benjamin Netanyahu; the Israeli prime minister, had raised couple of controversial issues:


Historical Ownership: He refers to ancient kingdoms in Southern Levant (Kingdom of Israel 1030BC-722BC with Jerusalem as capital and last ruler was King Solomon, and Kingdom of Judah 931BC-586BC which shared Jerusalem too) as historical proof of Jewish ownership of the land, and sequential legal right to establish and publish a state. If this is acceptable, Italians should claim all Mediterranean territories, which they ruled for centuries, and lift memorials and tangible historical evidences of their existence; in addition to mixed-breed with the natives of those lands.. Similarly, Greeks, Persian, Egyptian, Turkish, etc. have the same rights. If such argument will be accepted; a chaos in international order and laws will expand to turn down all civilized world.. Kindly note that Kingdoms of Edom, Moab, Ammon, Aram-Damascous, and Philistines city states were not proven Jewish, and the State of Israel should surrender what it occupies from their lands back to their descendants: The Palestinians..!!


State Definition: History had proved that any state built on religious concepts had collapsed. While history had witnessed many attempts; which some had survived for long, it also tells how were short to establish peaceful and progressive bilateral communications with the others. Religion does not establish citizenship, which justify the breakdown of all historical empires into ethnic states. Till date Russians are troubled by legacy of USSR, which replaced religion by political ideology; while Balkan still pays heavy price for the Ottoman role, despite their ethnic background superseded its religious claims. If all parties would give Jerusalem as international city state; alike the Vatican, there would be grounds for political solution. Unfortunately, religious sensitivities among all parties will not allow rational dialogue on such a matter..!!


Right to Return: UN resolutions had described the right to return in a tricky manner..!! You may read it as granted for all proven Palestinians or their descendents. Also, you may read it as limited to who had proven residency in the pre-June 67 boundaries. However, the fragile unity among Arabic speaking countries, did not enable successful interpretations or implementations of lasting-peace search. Jordan decline unity with West Bank; Egypt declined unity with Gaza, no other provided or funded any other creative solutions. Despite the fact of Palestinian roots in many villages and territories allover State of Israel; examples of massive exodus are not strange in history. Arabs in particular had experienced the same till recent history (Rashayda tribe had migrated from Najd to Sudan in 1846) Already, more than 5 millions Palestinian are residents in many Arab countries, while denied citizenship..!! Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Egypt would enable creating new state by given vacant lands of theirs, others, with low population would host and mix with them as they all brothers and cousins..!!


Israel would never stand for the demographic growth of the Arabs, therefore, any current loss would constitute lasting and futuristic domination..!! National security of Israel is not the military, but ethnic..!!

Iran Times..


Almost 25 years ago, Palestinians taught the commons all over the world to use rubbles in fighting injustice and abuse.. 20 Years ago, bear hands had brought down Berlin walls.. 15 years ago, Mandela’s people changed a concrete regime of Apartheid.. 10 years ago, Tailor had to leave his palace in Freetown to end as Janitor in London, 5 years ago, people caught Milosevic and surrender him to ICC in the Hague.. Iraqis a year ago changed the use of shoes to be a political weapons.. In the same year; Malaysian Indian revived the peaceful resistance as created by Gandhi.. Months ago, protesters had smashed retail windows in London refusing the G-20 planned resolutions.. Today Iranian are using all protesting tactics to get their voices heard.. Is there any listeners?

The world sounds listening, but actually the war on resources is going on.. Therefore, no clear condemnation, no heard voices or support, and no political interest in the common’s goals..
I think Iranian will have to do it themselves.. and it is a hard way to go, with lots of sacrifices and hardship..
I can anticipate change to take place in 2012.. Is that the predictions for End of the World..!!

The Hijab..


France was the 1st to seriously question the Islamic “Hijab”.. which unfortunately had not published among other Muslims.. I had few glimpse about the debates, but cannot claim to have the full spectrum.. The agreement set among supporters and opponents of Hijab; stills unknown for me.. yet; I’m sure it maintained reasonable parameters for both.. The "Hijab" became a religious symbol, not a code of practice.. it started 40 years ago by re-emerging Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt; as symbol of distinction from other ordinary Muslims; and Christian Coptic in particular..

Historically; "Hijab" was known among Gypsy, Indian, Bedouin Arab, European Orthodox and Sahel African women.. It was sought for various reasons, mostly climatic.. Its rituals had interpreted different political and social criteria.. Yes, along the history; many Muslim women were “Hijabi” on their own way; which was mostly social or fashion trend.. Their "Hijab" had nothing to do with religion, as the concept was shared among believers of all oriental religions..!! Christian Orthodox, Hindu and Jew are "Hijabi" too..!!

Yes, there is a clear instruction for Muslim women to maintain their "Hijab"; which was meant to distinct them from others, and shield from inappropriate behavior or temptations..
Unfortunately, "Hijab" recently survives as political demarcation; as many would perform, despite neglecting their religious duties.. It became a schizophrenic status rather than a maturity one..!! Thus; "Hijab" is a point of scrutiny till proven as a mark of harmony..!!

True “Hijab” should be a symbol of elegance and beauty.. extracts its value from both tangible and intangible vibes that it would spread among all performers and observers as well.. It is not the famous distinct fashions in Turkey, Iran, Syria or Egypt.. It is not confused with traditions in UAE, Saudi or Oman.. But stand alone concept and practice; that requires creativity and openness..!!
My great fears that a non-Muslim would come with such ideas and concepts.. as usual..!!

Meet The Folk..


My ancestors were not Apes..

Sorry Mr. Darwin, as the current known Mankind was created from Adam PBUH only 15,000 years ago..!!
HOMO-SAPIAN or Human were investigated to be 90,000 years old on earth, as evolution from HOMO-NEANDERTHALENSIS or Neanderthals..
The conflict between Religion and Science was and still confused as Children of Adam had groomed with existent Homosapians; which was never documented..
Maybe this is secret of all Royals, Blue-Blood, Sayed, Nobles, etc. worldwide.. They are pure decendents of Adam's sons.. This is mine, not proven by science, yet has a logic within..!
This is my own acceptable rationale to explain or resolve the conflict..
Regretfully, scientists with religious affiliations are few; which hindered many issues from elaboration.. Where Adam & Eve been on earth? Was Noah's Flood allover earth? What were the attributions of Adam & his immediate Children? Should we distinct Adam's Children from Homosapian?


There are a lot to question..!!


1 HOMO HABILIS ~ NICKNAME: Handyman LIVED: 2.4 to 1.6 million years ago HABITAT: Tropical Africa DIET: Omnivorous – nuts, seeds, tubers, fruits, some meat

2 HOMO SAPIEN ~ NICKNAME: Human LIVED: 200,000 years ago to present HABITAT: All DIET: Omnivorous - meat, vegetables, tubers, nuts, pizza, sushi

Darfur.. Why??


Darfur is reported to have the fourth largest copper and third largest uranium deposits in the world. Darfur produces two-thirds of the world's best quality gum Arabic—a major ingredient in Coke and Pepsi. Contiguous petroleum reserves are driving warfare from the Red Sea, through Darfur, to the Great Lakes of Central Africa.
Private military companies operate alongside petroleum contractors and "humanitarian" agencies. Sudan is China's fourth biggest supplier of imported oil...
This is little to know about Darfur, where Non-Arab Muslims are slaughtered by their long neighboring and land-sharing Arab-Muslims..!!
It is insane, reflecting the boost of awful morals ; which rule our today's world.. Therefore, we stand firm; "Never Again.."

The Inner Self..

True pure moments eliminate our intelligence; replacing it with simple formula of well being.. Synergy among all fetal corners of a Person; means equilibrium among senses, beliefs and responses... Usually, we are consumed by trends of living, not the well being of living... Thus, we are caught by the surprise of discovering our inner-self..

"When I'm dead, don't search my tomb on earth, but within People's Hearts.." From Rumi

I'm always reachable, and you are most welcomed at:

P please consider your environmental responsibility - think before you print!  



Three Parameters..


Three parameters are hindering the true human development..

  • Technological Cage; as graduates and trained professionals are literally imprisoned within their text books, downgrading any humble achievements..
  • Management Communications; as executives would scarify any new or outstanding initiatives to protect themselves and pay-slips; by formal approvals..
  • Monetary Valuation of everything we realize or know; despite the fact that the most precious ones; Life & Love; have no credit history..!!

In Urdu...


'Urdu' is a Turkish word which means 'foreign' or 'horde'. This just shows that the language represents it's origin being an amalgamation of foreigners with the natives of South Asia. It was formulated by the interaction of foreign army, merchants and immigrants to India. Today, it is the national language of Pakistan and is quite similar to the ... Read moreneighbouring country India's national language Hindi. Infact, the grammar of Urdu is quite similar to Hindi. The forte of the language has been and still is it's literature that has some master pieces. Likewise, poets like Mirza Ghalib, Allama Iqbal, Faiz Ahmed Faiz have had a give and take relation with the language. Where they took the language as a bridge between their thoughts and their readers, they also gave the gems of their beautiful poetry to the language. Urdu involves numerous elements of Arabic as well as Persian. It also derives some matter from Sanskrit, a language still spoken in the city of Multan in Pakistan.


Ghalib, was a famous Poet who wrote in Urdu.. That musical language which merged Arabic, Persian, Turkish and Hindi.. He shared Rumi that mysterious style of mixing Divine and Man’s love.. You may read his words as a Prayer which would please Allah swt, or a Love-Song which would carry your heart to your woman.. Regretfully, I do not speak Urdu..!! However, I sincerely wish if I would do; and my woman too..!!

Gahey gahey isey pada kijey,Dil say behtar koi kitaab nahin ![Once in a while, you should read this, There is no other book better than your own heart !]
Sarkati jaayey hai rukh say naqaab aahista-aahista,Niklta aa raha hai aaftaab aahista-aahista ![Veil is moving down the face, slowly-slowly, Sun is coming out, slowly-slowly !]
Yeh rah-e-ishq nahin aag ka samundar hai,Lapakti mauj mein ghar tum sambhal sako to chalo ![This is not a road-of-love, it is ocean of fire, If you can handle yourself in rising waves, then walk with me !]
Har shama bhuji rafta rafta, har khwab luta dheeray dheeray,Sheesha na sahi pathar bhi na tha, dil toot gaya dheeray dheeray ![Every candle extinguished slowly-slowly, every dream got crushed slowly-slowly ; May be I wasn't fragile like glass, but I wasn't hard like stone either, my heart broke slowly-slowly !]
Ishq mein aaisay bhi hum doobay huey hain aapkay,Apnay chehray pay sada hota hain dokha aapka ![I am so crazy about you that, Even when I see my face, it feels as if I am looking at your face !]
Chaand sooraj dhoop subah kehkashan taaray shama,Har ujaalay nay churaaya hain ujaala aapka ![Moon, Sun, Sunlight, Dawn, Stars, Candle, Every light has stolen brightness from you !]
Kaisay sakoon paoon, tujhay dekhnay kay baad,Ab kya ghazal sunaoon, tujhay dekhnay kay baad ![How can I have peace, after seeing you, Now which ghazal I can say, after seeing you !]
Rafta rafta woh meri hasti ka saamaan ho gayey,Pehlay jaan, phir jaan-e-jaan, phir jaan-e-jaana ho gayey ![Slowly and steadily, she became the part of my personality, First love, then life and then she became the reason of my life !]
Gaysoon uday mehki fazan, jadoo karein aaankhay teri,Soya hua manzar kahoon, ya jaagta sapna kahoon ![When you let your hair loose, whole atmosphere gets filled with sweet fragrance, And your eyes are mystical, Shall I call it sleeping beauty or shall I call it a sweet dream !]

4 Marriages & a Funeral..!!


Two events have the extreme excitement in our cultural history, Marriage & Death..

All folkloric records, known traditions, and even modern debates, deal with both phenomenon with lots of rituals, care, and consideration.. They both are the focal points and referrals of many given or denied implementations; between the hunter men and the nurturer women.. They both are the motives for achievements, boldness and hysterical acts as well; from heroism to greed.. They both define lots of the logic behind aspects of anarchy and urbanism, including safety policies..!!

Religions had chaptered many rituals for both, which truly unite people all over the globe.. Sequential and consequential issues related to both; are the core-stones for law and order; while impacts are the same for many socio-economic operations.. They both are equally mysterious and confusing; directly and indirectly feeding all philosophical debates and intellectual exchanges.. From both; many values are practically extracted, many definitions are conceptually agreed; and without, Mankind would feel lost, and aimless..!!

This would lead to question the purpose of creation; as well as the justifications for both righteous and goodness.. If a Human being would live endlessly; half of our endeavors would have to change, as well as all epistemic structures.. If a Human being would not need mating or breeding; the other half would collapse..!! Just imagine for a while..!!

Both events are very much related to time.. Time to live, and time when due to reproduce.. This would answer why feel sincerely concerned or sorry for who gone aging, or who gone barren.. In the back of our humane mind, each one should have an event to leave, and another for a successor.. Without, life and existence would be something else.. This would trigger deeper thoughts about what we are actually doing on earth..!!

Surly, our overall set of beliefs should be examined..

This note was triggered by a friend went suddenly missing from life.. and another got finally married..!!

Sudanese Passions...


Apology as Arabic is further an endangered language, not competitive to 21st century.. No wonder, as Chinese, French, Italian, and many more are sharing the same fate in an Anglo-world.. take it or leave it..!! (an excuse from a mono-language keyboard..)


I do love my Arabic tongue, alike my Darfurean ancestors who did not know any other language to speak.. and recently suffer because they are not Arabs..!! Sharing religion with the ruling gang in Khartoum was not enough, as below the kinfolk-Arabic skin lays great deal of arrogance that successfully working to vacate the Sudan from other ethnic groups.. The freak ruling gang are ready to give away parts of the country to maintain their control.. See you in Juba 2010, but get your visa first..!!

The British had realized the same a century ago, as their unspoken policy was to set barriers not only on the famous latitude 12N, but also on longitude 28E.. Arabic priggism is the hardest to treat, as composed with pre-Islam-history, mistaken interpretation of Quran, and unspoken alliance with natives across the Red sea.. If skeptical, kindly review the archived testimonies of Darfur Governors.. However, Sudanese are the only Arabs who read, but on unspoken decretive attitudes..

This is not a disarray from the subject, but a truth-dig in the heart of a nation.. which collectively lead to Three elements that rule Sudan till date and will continue in the 22nd Century.. Even Dr H-Alrasoul went trapped within..!! (Dr H-Alrasoul is a Sudanese academic; who called surrender Sudan to the British to re-colonize it..)

1. We sincerely believe that we had inherited from Colonial era seeds for perfection; which is very true for the time of independence not for today’s world.. Most of the so called elite Civil-Servants who were exported to the Gulf States had been sack due to lack of efficiency and competitiveness to serve the urban growth and ambitious developments. Many did not know to run PCs, apply Quality measures, Develop strategies or have professional manners. Sudanese decency is not a professional manners, nor a negotiating tool. This claim of historical administration capacities cannot stand for simple new management tools and techniques, which proven lacked within our folks. UoK was an ivory institute; which had brought nothing to the common, nor to the elite administrators and politician.. only barred “Demagogical” debates. We need to admit that we are among the lowest rates worldwide in governance, transparency, development, income, and urbanism. Kindly refer to formal indexes from UN institutes or global research centers. Admission of misfortunate-ness is the sole route for productive and positive realism… Bottom line; Sudanese are unprecedented dreamers.. Pls wake-up..!!

2. The historical wealth, combined with tribal kinship had taught us to mitigate the risks of living.. an urban traditional Sudanese household would host unemployed young-persons, with no regret, remark or annoyance; as far as there are someone provides the bread.. Life was easy-going; which enabled many to be book-worms, political activists, and philosophers. Thus, our intellectual life was fake, apart from reality and time-waste; which set deep separation between urban and ruler settlements.. No name posted on the media for any incident; had came from a village.. simply villagers do not have time to feed the press..!! No serious literate initiative came from ivory elites, as all changes were carried out by frustrated military.. The fact that Sudanese are hard to be monopolized by foreign intelligence agencies, so talks about missionaries and non-patriotism is just rubbish.. As governments expands, mixed with business, spiced by personal interests; not only the traditional ethics of clean-hand vanished, but also the dress code..!! National governments created poverty in a wealth-potential country, and could not handle the basic-text-books’ consequences. We had great politicians in Sudan, but failed to conceive and deliver Statesmen.. Politician feed the media, while statesmen feed the bellies..!! Therefore, Dr H-Alrasoul has a very valid point, despite the anarchy and the ivory-ness in her proposal..!! Hello, it is 2009; there are more than 1000 schools on government studies worldwide.. Kindly enroll our potential graduates, if any..!!

3. Same Civil Service structures were functioning allover the ex-British colonies.. with a difference, which defines the criteria of excellence, not the given one around drinks..!! In India, Malaysia, Kenya, and UK itself; massive changes took place in organizational policies, structure hierarchy and system procedures; which enabled these countries to seize adequate seat in urban growth and nation building. We had great CS in 1956, but could not have both realization or courage to change or improve it during the years.. Attempts to modernize the face of Sudan came in a freak order, with no intellectual depth or academic support.. Adding to the dilemma the loud hollow phrases from some graduates or postgraduates, as poverty went rocket-high, as the only scores achieved.. When oil reserves were discovered decades ago; conspiracies were planned right and lift to own them.. Oil came as a curse not a blessing, in a country where most things go extreme with high speed in the wrong direction.. Extreme love, Extreme hatred, Extreme confidence, Extreme failure.. Just keep it Extreme to make our voice heard..!! All academics wonders why we are poor? Even the ignorant common in streets of Cairo, Damascus and Algiers is asking.. Then, they stamp our passports with big letters I-D-I-O-T-S; knowing that we are extremely blind to read.. or extremely happy to get stamped, with no clue what this stamp stands for..!! It is all about Governing the country.. Let’s import a system if we cannot create one.. Let’s live..!! it is only a single life to be..!!

The above are the hilarious seeds for the main three issue in any successful governing of a nation, apart from the repeated slogans given in the so-called peace talks, which no one bothered to scrutinize: Share Authority, Share Wealth and Security Arrangements..!!

National Self-Realization, Equality of Rights & Obligations and Governing Structures are the true derivatives for a nation to be.. It is a tough world order, with no mercy or future place for who is idiot, out-dated or dreamer..!! However, handicapped are permitted..!!

My unconditional love.. and “dreams” of a “Future”..

Would See You Sometime..!!


This was my farewell message on 31st Dec 2007, when stepped down from my DIFC assignment..!!
It reflects lots of “me”, "People I Knew" and “Dubai” as well.. A history I'm proud of..!!


Dear All;

This is my last mail from DIFC server... This is life..
15 years ago, I had dropped in Dubai, to contribute in preserving its Cultural Heritage..
Today, packing to leave, after contributed in shaping its Urban Future..

In Dubai; practicing Cross-Boarder, Cultural Integration and Humane-Base,are mixed with Welcoming History, Extreme Ambition and Eagerness for Excellence..
Dubai; is a distinct situation in time and life, like-no-other..!!
Proud to leave you a Team, like-no-other.. a True Team, of precious personalities
Proud to leave, but holding DIFC affiliation, which marks any career path
Proud to be remembered, as a close friend to each of you..
Knowing that I came One-Piece; now leaving with portions of my heart are taken away..!!
Love You All..
Grateful to your sincere support, apology for any overwhelmed responses, and promise to meet again..

Malaysia Truly Asia


This is one of the most successful slogan in recent world..

promoting this multiple-rich-resources country.. which proudly a Muslim one..
I like to re-phrase it to be:
"Malaysia Truly Muslim..."

As usual, I'm not fanatic, nor naive...
Touring this country of ever-smiling faces, had confirmed many interpretations of the lost True Islam...
Yes, being remote from the fanatic Arab world had buffered them from the many infectious cultural illness that already ruined the Middle Eastern Muslims..
Yes, being a rich country, enabled ruling powers to maintain a framework, which is partially controversial and debatable too, however kept them sailing safe so far..
Yes, being a Sunni Muslim, enabled preserving simple essence of early Islam, without fantasies that the mighty and skillful government controls and prohibits..

Anyway.. I like it... Sure you also will do..!!

Dubai Democratic History


During the economic depression in early 1930th, Dubai had daily scenes of marching columns of servants carrying trays of cooked food, bread and fruits; covered with woven plates from palm thatches. These columns usually are on the move a little earlier than the typical meal timings. They march bear-footed from the houses of mighty and influential merchants towards the Ruler’s Residency in Shandagha district. There, anyone can seat relaxing, fill his belly, and take parcels back home for his hungry family. At that time, Dubai was hit by economic and financial crisis that almost lift everyone with empty pockets.

Senior merchants of Dubai had monopolized the businesses of pearl, gold and commodities across The Gulf and Arabian Sea. They determined to support the Ruler’s way of life. This spontaneous attitude was the significant interpretation of local democratic practice that always kept the tiny state stable and prosperous. In any other country, such a deficit would replace the ruling family with a wealthier and a mightier one. But in Dubai’s unique system of authority; it was a loud “Sayihah”; which is the traditional Arabic distressed call for help, unity and solidarity.

Such an event and many more were neglected by political scientists, who found it an odd practice to investigate. Regretfully, the history of Arabs is mostly oral, hard to trace or scrutinize, except by tools and applications of folkloric studies.

The Fall of Capitalism

During the last G-20 summit, protestors were flooding most of the European and North American cities; with slogans against Neo-Capitalism, which is entirely based on Market Dynamics, and Maturity. The later was called by G.W. Bush as safety valve against natural greed and spiral of the money making games. The world was obviously and entirely caught within the evil triangle of money, power and sex. Money became a product, which would be traded for power and sex; or anything else. Money Making became the text book and address of success for any young woman or man.

When most of the intellectuals got inspired by the dramatic events in 1970th, which allowed for hysterical oppositions to question the conventional way the world is managed, it was the countdown for all radical concepts to trench. Also; the over-reacted protective and conservative policies of totalitarian and socialist regimes had exposed many weaknesses in the forums of applications. This escalated the cost of policing, arming and spying on the citizens; it was overwhelmed governments seeking survival. The peak of this drama took place towards the departure of 1980th, fall of Berlin wall, USSR and Apartheid had symbolized the powers of youth, media and commons uprising. Rationale and wisdoms were ruled out as tools. Stones replaced pencils, Exodus replaces challenge and secret prisons or detention centers name buses destinations and stops.

By 1990th; people worldwide had surrendered to market dynamics to role, under the musical cliché of Neo Capitalism. Every citizen will live the American Dream in his very locality. What matters is how much money in your bank account; then people knew banking, forgetting the tine box under the bed. All moral referrals were scrutinized, from stem cells experiments to rights of the gays. No wonder that funny musical trends came out, with blue clouds or hallucinations from non organic drugs and narcotics. There was sort of strange, yet disciplined anarchy taking over everywhere. It was disciplined as all money making engines had collaborated and cooperated to set guidelines and roadmaps for how to concur the magnificent big markets around the globe. Some bright minds had launched the talk on poverty reduction issues, as sole key and security element for any prosperity or wealth growth. No wonder that UN had changed the concept and criteria of Human Development Index to be truly for the people.

Early 2000th; was the time to celebrate opening up China, India, Pakistan, Indonesia, Brazil and Nigeria for massive foreign investments. Everything is now valued in Dollars, or Return on Investment or ROI; recommending how governmental agencies should change their functions, how Private Public Partnership or PPP structure should rule developments, and how entrepreneurship is the best criteria for selection. Cleverly, the concept of CSR, or Corporate Social Responsibility was initiated, formalized and issued. It was meant for playing dual rules in all communities. On a political front, it was a press release that the poor are not forgotten, and a pay back from the wealthy, within framework of participation in the money making game. On the economic front it was a tip of a new yet simple vision of how economy works; pay them; enabling them to spend more..!! Good bye for saving economics.

By 2006, Foreign Investment was on the move in sub-Saharan Africa and Central and South East Asia. Investors were ahead from the local government and could establish the case to request more incentives to log in, with great ammunition of presentation, spreadsheets and images of happy persons that tempted the public servant to think twice. Once agreed; national or personal greed happens, doors are opened and opposition members are ashamed and jailed. Flood of Globalization is complicated, confusing, inevitable, and uncontrolled.

In 2009, the value of insurance products and policies was estimated at 60 Trillion Dollars, many times the global GDP, or Gross Domestic Product..!!!
