They say there is No bread in Town, So what ?
Is bread the only food in town ? Can't we choose to eat another close subsitute ?. How about Monno and Churai Gerteh, Milk and bahal. Gambian are dumb and most of those making the noise are the lazy youthfolk. They will chose to sit around attaya all day long without doing any damn work' daydreaming going to europe even if it has to be through the back way sea voyage and end up being illegal migrants. We have the vast land available and the rain is almost here. One can easily rent or since most or all the youth are from a communal home probably owning vast land in the country side. None will take the initiate to plant and grow what they need to eat or eat what they grow. Did they forget that the flour being used to bake bread is grown on the outskirts? Gambians are sleeping. They want to enjoy luxurious lifestyle and yet they don't want to toil and sweat to earn a living. Those few semi educated or qualified in the offices are making the most noise, they are there. doing no proper work or specifically doing routine, clerical jobs. Gambian don't want to work hard with honesty. They keep on talking politically in the streets and at their bantabas.. If we want to see our country and ourselves developed we must work very hard and honestly and stop the dirty politics
To help curb the risky journey and migration to Europe by our youth and those sitting on their butts drinking attaya all day long, you can help and encourage them to start a business in The Gambia with $100... You can do it yourself or help someone else to do it. The best business ideas is Micro Farming, Small Vegetable Garden: Carrots, Onions, Spinach, cucumbers, Cabbages, Garlic, Pumpkins, Lettuce, potatoes, sweet potatoes, etc. Small Fruit Garden: Bananas, Mangos, Pineapples, Papaya, fruits, Coconuts, Citrus Fruits, Tomatoes, etc; Small Poultry:5-20 chickens/layers, Goat Rearing: 2-5 animals, One cow of local breed

Tourism In The Gambia
The Swedish are the first people to visit The Gambia as tourists. This was in 1965 when a total of 300 people visited the country for the first time as tourist. The early tourist industry was given a momentum when a Swedish entrepreneur by the name of Bertil Harding was travelling to Cap Skirring (Capskerring) in south Senegal, in 1965 when, after some unfortunate personal incidences, he accidentally drifted onto the shores of The Gambia. When he experienced the country he became determined that his own country's people should see this 'paradise' so near (by air-time) to home and how friendly the people were
To visit The Gambia, you probably need to know that it is the smallest country West African country and most peaceful country at the same time the poorest in terms of economics. The country is bounded by Senegal on both side except the side facing the Atlantic Ocean. The country is wellknown for its diverse ecosystems around the central Gambia River. There are abundant wildlife in its Kiang West National Park and Bao Bolong Wetland Reserve includes monkeys, leopards, hippos, hyenas and rare birds. The capital, Banjul, and nearby Serrekunda offer access to beaches.
Places of interest will include; Kunta Kinteh Island,Bijilo Forest Park,Abuko Nature Reserve,Kachikally Museum and Croc...Arch 22. The Gambia has a climate that has been described as one of the best in the world, mile upon mile of such splashed beaches, tall coconut palms, blue tropical skies, a river that can take you deep into the heart of Africa....."
In Gambia, hotel accommodation resorts offer a wide and varied choice of places to stay ranging from luxury or standard tourist hotels to guest houses, lodges & self-catering apartments.The main cash crop of The Gambia is groundnuts. The country is primarily a agricultural country with 80 percent of the population of just over 2 million depending on agriculture for its food and cash income. The farming economy is the only means of income creation for the majority of rural families most whom live below the poverty line. Despite its small size (10,000 sq. km) The Gambia is aSere woman diverse multi-cultural society with many ethnic groups and where most people are as a result multi-lingual. Indeed it is not uncommon to find people being able to speak 3 to 4 local languages. Its size and the tempering influence of Islam in the Gambia context may indeed explain why it has a reputation for being a peaceful country as compared to that of other countries in Africa there is a minimum of inter-tribal and racial frictions. Traditional Gambian dishesJollof Rice, Benachin cooked in homes are mostly rice, the staple food, with a covering of various spicy sauces as on the right. However, steamed millet, couscous, cassava is also eaten. The defining ingredients for these various dishes are either peanut butter paste (Domoda), ladies fingers (Okra), palm oil (chew deu terr) or edible leaves such as spinach or cassava leaves. Very popular among poor families is Mbahal which is rice mixed with grated peanuts, dried fish such as bonga. Many of these dishes are also common to Senegalese cooking as both countries have common cultural ties.
Some of the best known authentic dishes are 'Domoda' (peanut butter sauce), 'supakanja' (okra stew), 'benachin' (Jolof Rice), 'Chere' (couscous type millet), chicken 'Yassa' (fried chicken in onions).

Workplace relationship
Workplace romance rarely, if ever, remains between two people. Soon the rumor mill will get started. There are a lot of “creeps” (both men and women) out there in our workplaces here in The Gambia now a days. Employees and Staff should not assume that everything will be fine. Yes, love happens. But so does hate. I implore my countrymen to keep the romance out of the workplace given the saga that has erupted at the SSHFC. Companies and Government departments should strongly discourage their staff and employees from involving themselves in relationships with colleagues that they manage or report to. Parastatals and government departments should update their policies to require all Chairmen and Board of Directors to disclose any inter-office relationships that might have a conflict of interest attached to the Parastatals or government institutions. Individual staff or employees should think about the ramifications of a workplace relationship. If the relationship didn’t work out, would you still be able to work with the person ? If it did go well, and one of you got promoted over the other, how would that impact things? HR policy, not only ones relating to office romance, should hold an annual company-wide meeting or forum to revisit rules to see if they still make sense and so that every employee can feels that they have a voice. If everyone decides that we want to have these hard and fast rules that there should be no dating in the workplace, then there you go, you have your policy, I do feel that there should be a broader discussion. It shouldn't just be up to one person to make that decision. The person you’re dating may already be in a committed relationship. Imagine the embarrassment of finding this out through a nasty phone call or email from a furious significant other ?
Special commission of inquiry
Barrow's government need to set up a special commission of inquiry to look into appointments, training and training related issues of government institutions and parastatals. So many dubious activities and nepotism has taken place and is still perpetuating. The brewing SSHFC case is just a tip of the iceberg. There is a needs for this issue to be addressed. A commission will have dig into family ties at our work places. Jobs, training and sponsorships are not given based on merits. There are so many cases where Senior Managers, Directors and Managing Directors bring in their sons and daughters into these institutions and parastatals thus creating more garbage output because they are not qualified and not fit for the jobs. They will go on to use public resources to get them trained and sponsored when they have not serve the number of years stipulated in the service rules before they can be considered for such trainings or promotions. You hardly see vacancies being advertised these days because they are filled at the back door gate

Optimism
Have you ever wondered why it is that some people who have huge intellectual ability
fail miserably in life, while some who are not so gifted succeed gloriously?
Or why some people can take knock after knock after knock, and still get up, dust
themselves off, and get on with life - yet others are "down and out for the count" after the
smallest challenge?
Or how some people can fix their eyes on a goal and just never give up until they get
there, no matter how long it takes?
The answer to all the above lies in one word: attitude.
Dr Martin Seligman has done a great deal of research, and found that one of the main
factors that keeps people going through challenges, disappointments and the various
disasters that life throws at us is optimism, and that (even for those who are natural
pessimists) optimism can be learned in fact Dr Seligman himself confesses to being by
nature a pessimist!
Dr Seligman points out three main areas of difference between optimists and pessimists
when faced with challenges, failures or opposition.
The first concerns how they see the duration of the problem. The optimist sees it as
temporary, the pessimist as permanent.
If an optimist fails an exam, he will say "I failed that exam, but I will do well on the next
one."
The pessimist who fails an exam will say "I failed. I'm never going to pass this course."
The second relates to the scope of the problem: the optimist sees it as affecting one are of
life only, whilst the pessimist sees it as affecting everything.
The optimist says, "I failed my history exam, but I did well in math." The pessimist says,
"I failed. I'm never going to succeed in life."
The third area concerns the cause of the problem. The optimist will look for causes
outside of himself, the pessimist always sees himself as to blame.
Optimist: "The exam asked about things that we had not covered in the course."
Pessimist: "I'm just no good at history (and I never will be.)"
The good news is that, with a little effort, we can change pessimistic attitudes into
optimistic ones. To do it, we have to use our conscious mind to challenge the wrong
perceptions and thought patterns that have hidden in our subconscious for many years.
Lynn Fowler
So, you have failed the history exam. The first thought that comes to your mind is "I'm
never going to pass this course!" Immediately you recognize it, you say (out loud if
possible) "STOP!" (Some people like to wear an elastic band around their wrist and flick
it to grab their mind's attention.)
Now challenge the assumption - simply tell yourself, "That's not true!" Present your mind
with arguments to the contrary: "This was just one exam. I can make it up during the rest
of the course."
Maybe your second thought is, "I'm never going to succeed in anything." Again, STOP!
Tell yourself this is not true. Tell yourself that this is only one very small area of your life,
and that it has absolutely no bearing in the other areas.
Even if you flunk this course miserably, you can still have a great life.
If you find yourself thinking, "I'm a failure" or "I'm just hopeless" STOP!
Tell yourself this is not true. Remind yourself of areas where you have known success,
and where you have ability.
It will seem strange at first, but after a while you will become quite adept at arguing with
yourself!
(Now, there is a sense in which taking it personally is good - when it relates to what we
have done, rather than what we are. If the guy who failed the history exam had said, "I
didn't study hard enough" then he would be taking responsibility for his own actions,
which leaves him room to change his actions (i.e., study harder) in the future. But if he
just says, "I'm no good at history" or "I'm not academically gifted" or "I'm just plain
dumb!" then he is not taking responsibility, but rather blaming the "genetic lottery" that
caused him to be as he is. If we are to succeed in any area of life - or, indeed, in life itself
- we absolutely MUST be prepared to take responsibility for our own actions and their
consequences.)
Why is this important for your business? When it all boils down, we are sales people. We
are seeking to "sell" others on the idea of joining our business. In the "real" world, sales
people have to deal with refusals all the time. How they handle those refusals will
determine their level of success, or whether they give up and walk away after a few
months.
As online business people, we don't have the face-to-face rejection that offline sales
people do. But there will be days when you have been working hard and seem to see no
result. There will be times when your business just does not seem to be growing at the
rate you would like it to be. If you approach those times with a pessimistic attitude - that
this will go on forever, that it will ruin every part of your life, and that it is all your own
fault because you are just hopeless - then you will soon give up and walk away. On the
other hand, if you are able to turn your thinking around to see that this is only temporary,
that it only affects this little bit of your life, and that whilst there may be areas where you
can improve (take responsibility) it is not the result of some fault in your nature, then
whilst you may not be dancing in the aisles, you will keep on going.
If you are prone to pessimistic responses, work on changing them to optimistic ones. You
will find that not only your business but all your life will improve dramatically.

Managing Gambia' Waste
For many years now waste has been a huge and nagging problem in the Gambia’s urban areas. Currently, most of the waste generated in The Gambia is either burned, buried or thrown away. As a result, more than 90 percent of solid waste produced in Banjul and the Kombos ends up in landfills or gets dumped in water bodies.
And as the country's population continues to rise, the waste problem will only get worse. So, what do we do with all the growing heaps of filthy waste before we find ourselves in the middle of the worst environmental crisis The country will ever known? Is it that our expert are not aware that the solution could be to convert waste into animal feed just like how it is done in South Africa and other countries..Our business men should be smart enough to set up businesses that can grow maggots from waste collected from markets, households and businesses. The maggots are then processed into a highly nutritious protein supplement that to be used as animal feeds.
In other countries waste is converted into electricity. Those of you who probably has visited Addis Ababa know more than me that the Ethiopians has a waste recycling factory that produces over 50 megawatts of electricity from waste collected from across the city of Addis.and they supply over 2 million homes with electricity, and thus helping them avoid the release of millions of tons of CO2 to the atmosphere.
I therefore implore budding Gambian entrepreneurs to be hard at work and try to squeeze out value from waste, and in the process, create an industry that could provide both low and high-level jobs for thousands of people.
West Africa's bread basket
Small-scale family farmers are the most important people in the Gambia. A group that numbers a vast majority of the population, but is nevertheless widely neglected by the public, the media and most importantly by the people and organisations who rule this country. Loads of initiatives from governments, industry and NGO’s are coming towards the small-scale farmers. They all want to provide them with new technologies or methods of industrialized farming. They want to sell them fertilizers and chemicals to protect their crops. Very few, however, are focused on education, information, and empowerment; Why not? The harsh answer is: most people in charge, most politicians, agricultural suppliers, and traders in this country, do not have the slightest interest in sharing power. And this is also the main reason why dictatorial regimes are so keen on controlling their educational systems, controlling the press and sharing the information about what’s really happening in the country. There’s simply no free press in a dictatorial regime because the people in charge are not willing to share their power, just as they are not willing to share their money. Gambia could become West Africa's bread basket. Yes, poverty is widespread. At least 80 percent of all Gambians live in rural areas, with 70 percent depending entirely on agriculture. Most of them depend on a small plot for their daily needs. The country, however, have over 60% of undeveloped farmland. And with some small efforts smallholder farmers can easily double, sometimes even quadruple their harvest. All that’s needed is knowledge and independent information for small scaled farmers. A sustainable development goal can be reached if small-scale family farmers in the Gambia,particularly women should be the most important focus group for governments and if that happen you may see the metamorphose of a country in need to a country of plenty.

Business Opportunities in The Gambia
Do you know that 1 in 4 Gambian students is enrolled in a private school, and this estimate will increase drastically within the next 10 years to come. Rapid population growth, poor funding, corruption and neglect have caused a serious deterioration in the quality of education in our public schools. As a result, more Gambian parents are looking to private schools to ensure their kids get a good education. And the demand for this alternative is skyrocketing. And this trend of low-cost private education is leading foreign entrepreneurs to exploit the inherent business opportunity therein while Gambians entrepreneurs continue to sleep..I believe if Gambian business men and women were to enter the low-cost private education space in the Gambia, I suspect the fierce competition will improve the quality of education, drive down school fees, and afford many children the chance of a decent education.

Area Councils in The Gambia
The Precedent has been set; In the past few weeks or months we have seen an unprecedented good performance by the interim Area Council here in The Gambia administrators. This should continue; The masses cannot and should not allow few individuals to control and destroy the councils anymore. Always remember we are Powerful when we are unified; Locusts, or grasshoppers by themselves are not powerful, but when they get together in a huge swarm, they are formidable! This is an illustration of strength in unity. When people band together in unity and cooperation, things get done. Locusts also don’t really have a leader, but they somehow understand when it is necessary to band together, and “march in rank.” so to speak. As the proverb goes:
''The locusts have no king, Yet all of them go out in ranks''

ARE YOU WORRIED OF A THIRD WORLD WAR
It looks like the world's superpowers are drawing a line in the sand in Syria with each country choosing what side of the line to be on. On one side, there is the U.S., the U.K., France, Israel, Saudi Arabia, and much of the NATO alliance. On the other side of the line, there is Russia, Iran, Syria, and now China. It seems like it has become the democracies of the world against the dictators of the world and that the final outcome has yet to be decided. The dictators are afraid of what will happen if their respective citizens rise up and challenge their authority, and by helping each other out, they see this as an opportunity to stand united in the hopes of maintaining that power. The democracies hope that by taking a stand in Syria, they will prevent the dictators from expanding their influence further westward. Following WW2, the world was divided into democracies and communists, and it seems like nothing has changed since then. The world had a period of calm between 1990-2000 because of the uncertainty in Russia, but when Putin took over as President of Russia, things changed dramatically not only in Russia, but for countries that bordered Russia. It has now ended up with the west facing off against the dictators of the world in Syria, and it seems like the world waits to see what the end results will be. Let's hope that all the countries involved see that no good will come to either side if there is a war, and that diplomacy is the best way to make this world a safer place for all..
