Dear all,
This is an open forum, so I am allowed to vent.
I was a little late into the mosque this evening, and managed to get only a part of the Presidents Speech [which I will call "Garbage" henceforth].
I arrived at the part where he was talking about the further 1 month delay on the gymnasium project that had started in Ramadhan. Can anyone please tell me how high tech this gym is that it needs 6 months to build?
Then he went on to talk about EH and the drugs there. I wouldn't go to EH in any case [and may God give you all perfect health that you wouldn't need to go there], only because the doctors there have low self confidence and don't have the mannerisms of how to deal with patients relatives or the patient [I have proof and I am sure you do too]. He was talking about renovations and blah blah, EH has been there since I remember and the ward that was built, doesn't even have a lift; to an extent that if one was very weak, the nurses and guards, carry a wheel chair to wherever designated [If this is a lie, may I be struck down]. Is the rule that if you build a mosque its more sawab?
The nurses have low moral because they are overworked and under paid, like some doctors.
Drugs are expensive because EH gets branded and long term expiry dated medicine!! Branded meaning India? and that also if the shelf life is long, what difference does that make for me as a patient, I am going to use it immediately! You ask for the simplest of medicine [In this case "Magnesium Trisilicate"] and you will be told "hamna" because there is no proper stock surveillance. There are 5 more pharmacies around the area, and I got a packet of 10 tabs at 300shs.
Schools? What is the calibre of the teachers in your school? Are you training them when they are working so that they can better themselves? Are they being paid enough because they are the future leader makers? What a croak! Education is important, however more important is upbringing and behavior, how many of our boys and girls have that when they leave school?
The karigaar who came from outside to fix and mend the outside of the mosque, why are they coming from outside? don't we have locals who can do that? Why don't we send someone from the community to learn about this art form and then we will have empowered someone to do something different, the newly formed EEC had a great career program with just the same old occupations - accountant, lawyer, media, medical ... why aren't we investing in our own people who already have these skills - instead of letting them work for HMHospital or MMC.
Khums, this is the problem with our rich presidents who live in big houses! Does he even know of debts? When I was a student, I took a soft loan and I am repaying it. How many of the 10,000 muslims are able to save? Has there been a research or its just the norm to ask for khums?
I have had enough of these roundabout talks! May God forgive me for swearing during the garbage bashing session. I needed to vent, and I have.
