Hello, Momodou, I put the link to the article you posted on my blog.  I have
a lot of questions about the implementation of this new law.  Firstly, are
we talking about traditional taxis?  If so, are the taxi drivers taking a
group of people, or jost one or two?

     What is a motorcycle taxi?  What are they used for?  If the authorities
are going to impose this new law, if they are going to say that men taxi
drivers can't take women unless they are related to them, do they have women
taxi drivers who can take their place?  If not, how do women get to where
they are going?

     If women can't travel with male drivers, and women can't get to where
they need to go, is this not a hinderance to women's ability to get done
what they need to get done?

     Or am I missing something here?

Ginny
