Excuse my french but you " DAMN RIGHT" Matarr. This should not just be a
mere opinion but a FACT. The Independent newspaper owe it not just to these
people quoted in their newpaper but to everyone on this List. We all have to
be concerned 'cause there is not a single individual here who does not have
relatives back home. Sure good ratings is one thing but to the extent of
jeopardizing people's freedom of expression is a violation of every
Constitution known to man except Mr. Jammeh , if you know what I mean.
Hey, if Independent care about out concerns and wants to address them to the
public, that's great publicity but they should first affiliate themselves to
the Gambia-L. Second, they should BY ALL MEANS POSSIBLE consult with
individuals prior to making these publications..Otherwise they should be
called RADIO KANG KANG. I wonder whatever happens to INTEGRITY 'cause last I
checked it was still in a twelve grade DICTIONARY.. Sorry folks but had to get
this one off my chest,,AHHHHH! Ok, I think am starting to feel better.
CHEERS:-)

Yus,
You made a good point. I felt the same way after reading the Independent
newspaper.
Although the Gambia list is a public domain, the members should not be put in
uncompromising circumstances in the name of press freedom.
This medium has had the kind of appeal that we have enjoyed due to unanimity
and this must be protected especially if the identity of its members can pose
potential risk.
I am not condemning the Independent's efforts to bring to light the
concerns of Gambians in Diaspora, but it must employ goodwill by first
requesting permission.
This is just an opinion.
Keep pressing on.
Matarr Sajaw.
