EMULATE



“Let us therefore brace ourselves to our duties that if the British Empire and its Commonwealth last for a thousand years, men will say, this was their finest hour.”

The above injunction from Sir Winston Churchill, was part of the recommendations made in an appeal I issued in the July 3, 1993 edition of Sunday Concord, at the high point of electioneering campaigns. Going through the same article even now, it does appear as if nothing has change.

Do you know any of the candidates running for high offices in the land? Please direct them to go through this appeal before they head out for the polls. It is not too late for any of them to change their minds.

CARTOON CORNER

Shah Reza Pahlavi of Iran committed atrocities against his country, Iran, and when tribulation came calling, he took off to the United States where he passed on amidst diplomatic tumult. In today’s carton, US officials are seen shedding crocodile tears over the coffin of the Shah. It’s a world of intrigues, isn’t it?

However, let us emulate Winston Churchill. Please repeat after me: “Let us therefore brace ourselves to our duties that if the British Empire and its Commonwealth last for a thousand years, men will say, this was their finest hour.”

Open your eyes. Vote wisely!

Lest we forget…CHANGE IS HERE
