Mr Jobe:

I share your frustrations on the elections and Tombong's
propaganda/misinformation on Gambia_l. However, lets tone down on
labeling/name calling Tombong or any other APRC supporter. I just don't want
us to raise the tension on this list and start getting personal with
individuals we disagree with.We conceded to them with class, now let adopt
that spirit on the L. This is just a brotherly advise from me.

On a different note, I read in the POINT Newspaper that one of the reasons
the Coalition lost the elections was due to inadequate funding they received
from us(Gambian overseas). The article went on to state that after Sheriff
Dibba pulled out of the coalition talks, some of us who contributed asked
for, contributions back. According to the paper, we sent $2,000 to help the
coalition.

I truly believe for the talk we have done on Gambia_l, we did not deliver.
If the amount the  paper quoted is correct, we failed our country miserably.
Gambians are one of the nicest people on this earth but when it comes to
putting our money to help a cause, our generousity fades. Can some please
prove the preceding statement wrong. I made this sad statement because of
the following:

1. The mammogram machine donated for Gambia in Atlanta.
2. Fund raising efforts to help victims of April 10 & 11 2000.
   initiated by Sigga Jagne and Yankuba njie.
3. Our financial support to the UDP/PPP/GPP coalition
4. Massacre Action Plan(Gambian.com) for victims of April 10&11

The number of Gambians who contributed constitute less than 1% of Gambians
in the US. That is not commitment at all. I hope we see this as a positive
critism and challenge.

Regards,
MJohnson
