we all have wishes, let them be big or small, grand or simple. since our 50th independence day is just few hours away, i thought of listing out my wishes for this wonderful day in our country. <\/p>\n
1. removal of the words “gender”, “race” and “religion” in any language in all application\/registration\/survey\/entry forms used in our country except for those that requires specific characteristics e.g. imam must be a muslim.<\/p>\n
2. free education up to secondary school for all students regardless of type of school and location.<\/p>\n
3. improved, seamless, reliable, energy-saving, less-polluting, and efficient public transportation system throughout the country which reduces the need for privately owned vehicles.<\/p>\n
4. to reduce dependency on foreign workers by training the locals to be skilled.<\/p>\n
5. to provide fair distribution of services and benefits to all deserving citizens based equal rights.<\/p>\n
6. to reduce working hours and encourage more time for families to bond together. <\/p>\n
7. to have sets of law that provides access to information and guarantees freedom of rights of individuals.<\/p>\n
wishful thinking…you say? <\/p>\n
