FamilyRe: Domestic Violence Is An Accepted Nigerian Epidemic by Cousin9999:
I don't think people fully understand the impact of poverty.

That said, beyond economic issues, the violence boils down to how a culture regards women.

Poverty exacerbates the occurrence and severity of violence in those already experiencing it. Poverty doesn’t directly cause physical violence or abuse, but is, in a human rights context, a form of violence...

Extreme poverty is a form of structural violence, and as all human rights are related and intertwined, so are the different manifestations of violence that we experience.
.
.
The truth about poverty is that it stems from social injustices that emerge from multiple parallels...

Economic stresses incite violence, and economic stress stems from violence.
.
.
Being trapped in poverty or violence often implies being trapped in the other, because the two are so synonymous with human suffering and function to dehumanize individuals in a similar fashion through similar mechanisms.
.
.
poverty and abuse...as issues of human rights, their underlying causes and potential alleviations are visible through the same lens.

...human rights mechanisms work to retain all rights for all people through universal access and protection.
Foreign AffairsAngola: President Unveils Pediatric Hematology Institute by Cousin9999(op): 9:59pm On Mar 12, 2022
Angolan head of State João Lourenço inaugurated Friday in Luanda the Pediatric Hematology Institute, specialised in treatment of patients with sickle cell anemia, acute and chronic leukemia.

The Angolan Head of State, who was accompanied by the first lady, Ana Dias Lourenço, and Government officials, toured some areas of the institute.

Named "Doctor Victoria do Espírito Santo", the Luanda-based health infrastructure will conduct special tests before parents decide to have children.

The hospital is expected to perform the first bone marrow transplant in the country later this year.

The unit, the first of its kind in Angola
, has a pediatric hemotherapy component and a bone marrow transplant centre, in collaboration with the Institute for the Fight Against Cancer and other reference units.

The building comprises seven floors, technical areas (pharmacy and laundry, hospital waste deposits), an area for clinical analysis, imaging, administrative services and training.

The infrastructure, built from scratch, in an area of 11, 700 square meters, also has an operating room, intensive care unit, hospitalisation (pre and postoperative), as well as a child and family support centre.

The infrastructure is named after a retired 75 year old Angolan Doctor, Victoria do Espirito Santo, who is currently a university professor in the specialty of medicine.

Trained in Angola in the field of pediatrics, Victória do Espírito Santo was the clinical director of the David Bernardino Pediatric Hospital, having stood out for her humanised care and dedication to children.

Foreign AffairsEthiopia Switches On GERD Hydropower Dam by Cousin9999(op): 7:06am On Mar 11, 2022
Ethiopian Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed Ali started up the first turbine of the controversial Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam (GERD) yesterday, as construction work by Italy’s Webuild continues.
Commissioned by Ethiopian Electric Power, the project on the Blue Nile in the western region of Benishangul-Gumuz is valued at €3.48bn and is 84% complete, Webuild said.

Once complete, the GERD will be the biggest hydropower dam in Africa, with an installed production capacity of 5.15GW able to produce an average 15,700GWh a year. Some 10,000 people on average have been working to build it every year, said Webuild.

The GERD will allow Ethiopia to generate and export renewable electricity, avoiding the emissions of more than two million tonnes of CO2 a year, according to Webuild.

However, the dam has caused diplomatic tensions between Ethiopia and its downstream neighbours Sudan and Egypt, with Egypt claiming it will restrict its only source of fresh water, the Nile.

Talks brokered by the African Union have so far failed to produce agreement among the countries on the dam’s filling and operations, with Ethiopia refusing Egypt’s and Sudan’s demands that filling stop until an agreement is reached.

Located around 700km northwest of the capital Addis Abiba, the project includes the design and construction of a roller compacted concrete (RCC) dam, a saddle dam and two power stations installed downstream at the foot of the dam on opposite shores.

Webuild said the main RCC dam will be 1,800m long and 170m high. It will create a reservoir covering 1,875 square kilometres and contain 74 billion cubic metres of water. The rockfill saddle dam will have a volume of 15.3 million cum and crest length of 5000 km.

According to the company, global experts advised on the composition of the concrete, resulting in a mix that settles more quickly, thereby improving the production and quality of the material.

FoodRe: I Caught This Pigeon Flying In My Room, I Cooked And Ate It by Cousin9999: 3:14am On Mar 10, 2022
Squab (farmed pigeon) market.

There’s also the price: a one-pound, single-serving squab can go for up to $25, whereas you could get a pound of quail for around $14.
https://www.foodandwine.com/cooking-techniques/the-tastiest-bird-you-can-legally-eat

Brobson Lutz remembers his first squab with perfect clarity. It was the 1970s at the now-closed French restaurant Lutèce in New York City.
Squab, once among the most common sources of protein in the United States, has fallen out of favor in the last century. The speedy, handsome, tender, and tasty pigeon of yesteryear was replaced in the hearts and minds of post-World War II Americans with the firsthand experience of the city pigeon, whose excrement encrusts our cities. It was replaced on the plate, too, by the factory-farmed chicken. But thanks to foodies like Lutz, squab is making a slow and steady comeback in French and Chinese restaurants around the country. Trouble is, the bird’s unique development needs mean farmers struggle to meet the growing demand.

That said, countryside pigeon generally should be safe. Avoid the city ones because you don't know what they're eating.

I see what you're trying to do, but these dudes aren't the same at all.

1. They're not trying to build a career around their bodies.

2. Women taking similar photos would not be judged, e.g. lounging in a normal way on vacation or around the house.

3. The reason a woman gets judged so harshly for certain photos is because she's throwing her dignity, talent, and contributions aside to engage in self-tr4fficking. Male or female, no one should be celebrated for that. It's disgusting, wrong, and it's just not good for society.

TravelRe: Why Do Many Of The Chinese Who Go To Work In Africa Prefer To Remain by Cousin9999: 4:43am On Mar 09, 2022
engwari:
copied from www.quora.com
I have seen various Chinese who are exploring their business in the wild land. Reasons are many, and I’ll try to list some as I know
No person refers to Africa as such unless they live in the woods and have no education, or they're r3t4rded.

Chinese do master many technologies and skills that Africans don't.
No, no they don't. They simply copy what oyinbos give them on a silver platter since they've agreed to be the world's sweat shop (no labor laws, cheap labor).

In China, farming won’t make people rich and only the elder people who are not wanted by job opportunities in cities and factories farm.
Anyone who believes this is a m0rOn. Agribusiness is a $884M industry in China averaging 7% annual growth.

When he was employed as a construction worker, he surprisingly found how rare the varieties of vegetables were...

Previously, vegetables like colorful peppers were imported either from South Africa or Europe by International Supermarkets and the prices are very high.
This is so powerfully dūmb that I'm not sure how to respond.

He became even a social central man among the Chinese population in Greater Accra Region.
The guy is a loser who probably had to fly in a village girl with no options just so he'd have a wife.

Normally, those Chinese who come to Africa are of lower social class and less education. They can normally get lifted after starting a business in Africa.
Their social class doesn't change no matter what lifestyle they're able to have in Africa. And nothing they have in Africa is even really theirs. They don't actually own it. lol
TravelRe: Why Do Many Of The Chinese Who Go To Work In Africa Prefer To Remain by Cousin9999: 4:22am On Mar 09, 2022
1. Many Chinese who go to Africa (and everywhere else) are part of criminal organizations, prisoners sent as "workers," or tr4fficked by other Chinese.

2. Many Chinese fail in Africa because they don't know anything about the market, no one wants their junk, and people generally don't want to do business with a degenerate.

3. Chinese bred like rats for millennia because all their people wanted to do was slaughter each other to be king. They continued this practice believing it still made sense. Now, they find themselves living on a mostly frozen and desert rock without enough to properly sustain them. The one child policy didn't do much. The government uses a lot of its resources to get rid of people. They basically build entire communities including businesses in Africa to get rid of their people.

TravelCaribbean Airlines To Launch Guyana-houston Route by Cousin9999(op): 8:07am On Mar 08, 2022
Caribbean Airlines will operate seasonal service between Georgetown (GEO), Guyana and Houston Intercontinental (IAH) this spring.

The service will operate 3X-weekly from March 22 to June 30. Trinidad and Tobago-based Caribbean said it is timing the service, which will operate on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays each week, to enable passengers to connect to its Port of Spain (POS) hub in Trinidad and Tobago.

The IAH-GEO flight, for example, will depart at 8:20 pm and arrive at 4:35 am the following morning, with a potential 1 hr. 20 min. GEO-POS connecting flight departing at 5:50 am.

The IAH-GEO route will be operated with a Boeing 737 MAX aircraft. The airline took delivery of the first of 12 MAXs it has on order in January.

Caribbean, which is co-owned by the Jamaican government and is the largest airline in the Caribbean region, said Guyana has a “need for additional airlift.”

CEO Garvin Medera said: “Caribbean Airlines is actively resetting expectations for our customers with our new aircraft and various refreshed products to enhance the overall customer experience. Caribbean Airlines has been a consistent partner with Guyana and the Guyanese diaspora, so it’s only fitting that we mobilize resources to support the expanding commercial activity in Guyana. This new operation will provide direct connectivity between Guyana and Houston, which is the base of many of the largest oil companies in the world. Another plus is that customers also have the option to connect to Port of Spain for business and leisure.”

Caribbean is pushing to expand its reach as it emerges from the COVID-19 crisis.

Caribbean recently revealed it is in talks with Qatar Airways over a cooperation agreement that potentially would allow each carrier’s passengers to connect to the other’s network via North American hubs Miami (MIA), New York Kennedy (JFK) and Toronto Pearson (YYZ).
