Dear Mr Sawiris ,
I
understand that you are a supporter of the idea floated by Mr Jason Buzi , re rehabilitating refugees in
a newly created " Country "
This
was reported in an article by Mr Chinand
Rajghatta which appeared in today's Sunday Times of India
In
this connection , I reproduce below , an email that I sent out just now to both
, Mr Rajghatta and Mr Jason Buzi
Since
I could not find your personal email ID , I am sending this thru your web site
with
regards ,

World
Migration Day
In 5 months ( Jan-May 2015 ),
some 50,000 migrants from North Africa , crossed Mediterranean Sea in rickety
boats, to land on shores of Italy
That is some 10,000 per month
( soon reaching 100,000 per month ? )
Irrespective of EU countries'
decision to admit only 20,000 per year , by 2020 this figure could reach
1 MILLION per month !
Why this huge migration ?
Apparent
Reasons :
> ISIL is
terrorizing Syria / Iraq
> Boko Haram
are doing the same in Nigeria
> Houthies are
following both in Yemen
> Libya is
facing a civil war
> North and
South Sudans are at war
> Tunisia is
boiling with massive unrest
> Taliban is
rearing its ugly head in Afghanistan
> Egypt is
simmering with angst against Muslim Brotherhood
> Pakistan is
becoming terrorists' training ground
> Turkey /
Lebanon / Jordan are getting overrun with refugees
> All over
Mid-East , Shias and Sunnis are fighting
In short , most of
African and Mid-East countries are exploding with local wars ,
under Europe's soft underbelly and porous right borders
Real Reasons :
Millions of citizens of these
countries are facing unemployment and
consequent starvation ( when not getting killed by terrorists )
It is no different with
migrants from Bangladesh and Myanmar trying to find shelter in Indonesia / Philippines / Australia / Thailand
Closer
At home :
Of entire World's 800 million
" malnourished " ( euphemism for " starving " )
people , 200 million are in India
Only , instead of calling
them " Starving " people , we choose to call them , " Naxalites
/ Maoists " etc !
We fail to realize that there
can be no political solution to " Starvation " !
Where can they migrate ?
There is no " Promised Land "
on India's borders !
Solution
?
Since no developed country
wants to admit migrants from poor countries , let UNO declare , Antarctica as
" United States of Migrants "
- USM
And fix quotas of migrants
that each poor country can dispatch to USM each year ( - roughly in proportion
to " Starving " population of each poor country )
Then contribute funds for
creating settlements in Antarctica ( - in any case , due to Global Warming , ice-shelves
are melting and soon Antarctica will become habitable ) .
For the
rich countries , this would be the most , economically and socially viable
solution
Let a beginning be made by
declaring 27 June , as
" World
Migration Day "
