A Boat full of Dead Immigrants!

Immigration is in the news.. and how people from poor countries and societies move to richer countries to make a better life.. I come from India where many folks do dream of the same – although the educated may as well stay back and earn well – I have not been able to understand the rush and the passion to escape. Why are humans so prone to escaping difficulties as opposed to facing.. fighting and trouncing them!!

This one difference – escaping vs fighting – may as well be the most distinguishing characteristic that makes someone rich and someone poor! If you want to take your destiny in your hands and fight to change the environment however bad it is!

This boat was found with all the people on board dead from starvation and hunger!

Authorities in Barbados are still trying to discover how a boat carrying the bodies of 11 men was found adrift off the Barbadian coast a month ago.

Police believe the men were mostly from Senegal after finding an Air Senegal ticket on board and a note left by one of the dying men.

In the note, the man speaks of his family in Bassada, Senegal. “Please excuse me and goodbye”, he says.
