Letter Published in Gulf News UAE on 1 Aug 16,Something needs to happen

After the recent attacks in Orlando, US and when another city in the state of Florida witnessed this latest attack, it was saddening (‘Two dead in Florida club shooting’, Gulf News, July 26). This incident took place in a teen party venue. The cause of this attack is yet to be fully understood, however it was condemned. The US should act quickly on this issue and implement strict laws to protect innocent people. I pray for the victims and a speedy recovery for the injured.

Letter Published in The National UAE on 31July 16,A sad day for Japan

The horrific attack in Japan (Hatred behind troubled Japan knife attacker’s rampage, July 26) should serve as a moment of pause for the country.

The attack, reportedly committed by a former employee of a disabled home, saw 19 people killed.

This mentally disturbed attacker was reportedly taking revenge but it is unclear what he was taking revenge for.

The attacker is a threat to Japan and should be put in safe custody for a long time.

We must all pray for the victims and hope that the injured recover quickly.

Career tips

Education is very important. It not only prepares you for a profession, but also shapes you as a human being. The art of living and etiquette also come with it. 

But to have a sound career, we must choose the right course, or a field. Shaping one’s career through education requires concentrated effort. It solely depends on you. It is like the more effort you will give, the better will be the outcome. When you are young, your perception of things is different. Proper guidance is required. But at the same time the profession should not be forced by parents upon their children. One should be able to freely decide on a profession of his/her likes. A few years back the son of an old colleague asked me which subject he couldn take up.  I suggested whichever subject he likes the most and has a firm grip over can be considered. 

A few days back I received a message through another friend that the young man was very happy with his profession because of selecting the subject of his own wish and he was doing well in the field. I personally was very happy to receive this message.  The profession he had selected was none other than my favourite, Pharmaceuticals.

So letting him choose his own subject led him to flourish in life. Of course, he has put in a lot of effort to reach such a position.

Letter Published in Gulf News UAE on 29July 16,Praying for Munich mall victims

The Munich mall shooting in Germany has occurred soon after the Nice attacks in France. The Munich attack is a dramatic development in the European arena. The gunman who was 18 years old killed nine and wounded 16. The motive behind this attack was not known and he was also suicidal himself – not belonging to any terror group. However, the investigation is ongoing. Germany is one of the first countries to accommodate refugees when the migration crisis began. Now Europe is suffering from terror attacks. I pray for the victims and a speedy recovery for the injured.

Letter Published in Gulf News UAE on 28July 16,Pray for their arrival

The plane left for Port Blair, India from the Tambaram Indian air base is missing and there has been no communication from the pilots, which is really worrying. Crew members and others were travelling. The real problem is that no one could locate either technical fault or any other reason. I pray for the safe arrival of all the 29 passengers.
