The weekend starts again for us, but some of us are a bit discouraged. Everybody received an email stating that it is urged not to go there these days. It's exactly 1 year ago since the problems there.
Police are fireing tear gas at protesters in Bahrain's capital after demonstrations on the first anniversary of a forcibly suppressed pro-democracy uprising. Yesterday the Bahraini police also dispersed protesters who made several attempts to mark this anniversary of last year's uprising by marching to the site of the protest, which was brutally crushed.
It also means that the Bahrayn Grand Prix, which should take place this april, will probably be thrown in doubt because of this political unrest.
Let's hope for the best shall we !

Hey Steven, Congratulations on your promotion. Finally some-one with the right qualities at the right spot.
ReplyDeleteWork is great : it's not too warm here yet, the summertime will be extreme : up to 50 C. It can get pretty cold here aswell, especially in the morning. Nothing compaired to Belgium, but then again, I never liked the cold anyway.
The people I work with are nice : Indians, Malaysian, Indonesian, Arab, Dutch, French, German, English, Romanian, ... the list is long. Good for my languageskills ;-)
Enjoy your new position, I'm convinced you'll do a good job.
