 Letter Published in The National UAE on 1April 21 Vaccines will be the solution to ending the pandemic The recent surge in Covid-19 cases in even a country like Germany is a worrying sign and of grave concern to Chancellor Merkel. She has a big challenge on her hands and has yet to announce measures to control the surge. This recent spread of infections is not only tough for Germany but affects the entire European Union. Like in the UAE, increased vaccinations will be the key.K Ragavan, Bengaluru, India

 Letter Published in The National UAE on 25Mar 21  Biden must end gun violence in the US

With reference to the report Gunman and 10 victims of Colorado mass shooting identified (March 23): The Biden administration must act immediately to end gun culture in the US. It's such a tragedy that time and again lives end this way. The present Biden administration is doing a good job of addressing the pandemic, neglected last year by the previous administration. They should do everything now to end this violence and permanently safeguard the interest of innocent civilians of America, migrants of various nations, students, workers.

Gun control in US

This is with reference to the recent shooting incident in Atlanta, Georgia in the US (“US: 8 dead in Georgia massage parlour shooting rampage”, Gulf News, March 17). The tragic incident that took eight lives was sad and painful. Apart from tackling the pandemic, which was completely neglected by the previous administration, now the new US administration has to tackle the important issue of gun culture immediately. It is important to protect the innocent civilians of the US as well as the millions of migrants who depend on the country. How will President Joe Biden act on this?

 Letter Published in The National UAE on 18Mar 21 A dangerous shortage of materials for vaccinesThe danger posed by delays in the vaccine supply chainI write in reference to Ramola Talwar Badam’s article Serum Institute chief sounds alarm over vaccine raw materials shortage (March 16): as a former pharmaceutical worker myself, I feel strongly about this issue. The chief of India’s Serum Institute has good reason to worry. If stocks are jeopardised, there are fears that half the world’s population will not be vaccinated until as late as 2022. A US export ban on raw materials makes this unpleasant possibility more likely. Hopefully the new administration will realise this and relax its measures in the coming days.K Ragavan, Bengaluru

Un acceptable.

This is with reference to the recent shooting incident of Georgia ,Atlanta UST ragic incident that has taken eight lives was sad and painful .Apart from tackling the Pandemic which was completely neglected by the previous administration now the new US administration has taken care and the other important issue of Gun culture should be addressed immediately. To protect the innocent civilians of US as well millions of migrants who depend on their future in the soil of US should also be taken care.Just because of some young perverts action leads to many deaths. It should be addressed without second thought.Will the President Joe Biden act on this ?

(March 8): I found it deeply thought-provoking.It is amazing to have witnessed IWD on its 110th year. It will have been celebrated all over the world, particularly in my home country of India, where female officers have recently been deployed on warships after a hiatus of over two decades.I am sure that the UAE will continue to demonstrate its commitment to female empowerment over the next year. Around the world, we must focus particularly on helping those women most affected by the pandemic.K Ragavan, Bengaluru

 Letter Published in Gulf News UAE on 10March 21

Wise UAE leadership   This letter is regarding the recent announcement of the UAE leaders' visionary plan for the coming five decades (“Shaping UAE’s future over the next five decades”, Gulf News, January 14). It is always inspiring to read about government officials drawing up long-term plans for a country’s development. Anticipating how life might pan out on a day-to-day basis can be challenging, particularly in these times of tumult. However, the fact that the UAE is looking 50 years ahead is a testament to the imaginative ability of leadership and its self-confidence. It won’t be a top-down approach, as the government expects to collaborate with the key national economic sectors. Rest assured that, just as successful the past 50 years were in UAE history with the prestigious Hope Probe, the coming years will be exciting and well worth watching. From Mr K Ragavan

Many places Women empowerment has increased and Six months maternity leave was granted is really amazing. See Women as Sister,Mother and Daughter and their importance should be focussed.I am happy women are dominating in all areas and particularly the Powerful media and journalism area they have created a big impact.Right deserving honour for Women.

 Letter Published in The National UAE on 4March 21Providing jobs will be one of the biggest challenges going forward

I write in reference to Rashmee Roshan Lall's article Jobs after Covid-19: business not as usual (March 1): it is no exaggeration to say that the pandemic has changed the world in very fundamental ways. Even as vaccines are being disseminated and administered around the globe and economies are picking up again, people are losing their jobs. It is likely that the post-pandemic recovery will be for just a minority of people. Technology was already making many jobs redundant, now Covid-19 has hastened that process. Millions of people being unemployed cannot be good for anyone, not for the economy, not for government, and, most importantly, not for those out of work. The public and private sectors should come together as quickly as possible to find solutions.
