Weather: Very hot and Humid. It is going to be a hottest summer in recent memory. is it 'El Nini' effect , global climate change or whatever. Not able to spend time (even walk about 30 minutes in the sun between 1PM to 3 PM) it just drains your energy. Just think of people who have to work in the SUN like COnstruction workers, Delivery people (Pizza delivery etc.,). Even people who need to drive around - sit in the car (A/c), go to office for meetings (A/c in the offices), go to a grocery (A/c), go everywhere A/c is there, come out the heat and humid will hit you in the face (changes in the weather will hit you hard). This in the month of July '09 itself.Summer is in Peak form in the month of August and September. SUMMER in ABUDHABi is going to be a great month.
Cricket: India what a downfall to lots of 'TOmorrows Sachins, Dravids etc.,) likes of Rohit, Gambhir, Raina all had a great fall, say tumbled in the international arena. Rude lesson to them. India made an inglorious exit in the T20 World Cup. Pakistan astonished more for themselves rather than the world. but hats off to them. Now they are stumbling in Srilanka - that is Pakistan. Enigma to themselves and to the world. Not to be 'world champion' and stumbling like Nine pin a week after that.
Politics : International
G8 Summit just got over. Usual climate change - world leaders talked about. Nothing is going to happen. Debate will go on between developed world and developing (emerging) economies. Atleast Obama accepted that Developed economies has to take some positive decisions on the climate control, more responsibilities to be taken than asking developing emerging economies to share the climate control. Economy is still bottoming out everyday some economic pundit is giving statement; but still oil prices is stumbling, sensex is crashing, unemployment is risig; japan is floundeing. What is in store? Nobody knows. Major pffensive is happening in Afghanistan. Swat operation is going on in Pakistan. hectic week of politicking is going on. Let's see. Oil auction has taken place in Iraq, but not a single editorial has come out of that. ANy good has taken place,nothing is to be seen or heard. America has pulled out of Iraq - daily policing has given to Iraqi police, Let;s see what is going to happen? France has banned wearing of Burqa in Public - governement and public servants. Debate has splitted the France Sociery. Obama visited Egypt gave a speech. Israel and Palestine are not talking. Israel is construcing in Settlement Colony of Gaza.
Politics : National
Pranadba delivered Budget ; senses crashed 800 points down. 10% fall in that week (budget week). Budget is not a reform budget but seems to be an election thanks budget but policy decision can be taken in the course of the year. So reforms can be counted.... Kerala Vijayan and Achtanandan are fighting in the Open. Politburo is splitted. Nothing muchis happening in India. ENR - Enrichment of Nuclear fuel has been banned by G8. India has not signed the Ful Nuclear aggreeement with Russia, France and USA. Is it going to affect them, lets wait and see. Shopian Murder case trial - Jan commission has submitted the report. Violence is continuing. Who is to be blamed Media or Politicians or Police. Jan commission has blamed the Media - they just flamed the violence by giving wrong informations, Politicians whichever side they are they just sounded out, Police not knowing what they should do. Government just waited and watched the whole situation. Who suffered at the end common man. Indian central government just waited as they are in coalition government with NC.
Personal: Going to chennai today by Etihad. Going to be with Family after 3 months.
See you soon!!!!!!!!
