Qatar changes the rules for residency and visit visas

This initiative aims to elevate the quality of services in alignment with the… pic.twitter.com/gzZfbsBYnb

— Ministry of Interior (@MOI_QatarEn) December 3, 2023

 The most important changes I noticed

1. An expat employee must have at least 10,000 qar in pay or 6,000 qar in salary plus company housing if he wants to bring his family to live in Qatar.
2.About being a sponsor for an adult child: For boys up to 25 years old, their father can be the sponsor, and he can apply for a visa for his son. For girls, there is no age limit provided they are not married.
3.People of any age can visit Qatar, but they must have health insurance while they're there.

 Abd Alrahman, an engineer, developed a passion for the culinary industry. He was also from Gaza.     The story is as short as his life.  He became the most popular pizza place owner. He has been killed during the Israeli bombardment in Gaza.   Which is still on .

There are thousands of lives like his...

What are the wars fought for?

Wars for nothing ! Senseless and unnecessary. There is no benefit for humans.

The extraordinary life of Mamo Grum - the Gyros King of Budapest

" Thousands bid farewell to Mamo Grum at Farkasrét cemetery,Budapest remembering his vibrant spirit and unwavering dedication to Hungarian hospitality."

  Just came across this unusual article in Blikk about the extraordinary life of Mamo Grum!  It is quite uncommon to come across articles or discussions that highlight the valuable contributions made by migrants to Hungarian society. There is a palpable sense of unease and silence surrounding this topic. 

Is this the beginning of a new era?  Will they change that narrative? They sparked my curiosity.

During my investigation, I discovered that this remarkable man, who was previously an officer in the Ethiopian army, actually arrived in Hungary in 1984. Can you imagine the incredible adventures he must have experienced by that time ?

He had a challenging time adjusting to the European weather, the Hungarian language, and the different culture for a period of 2-3 years.

However, he gradually began to feel more at ease with his new life in Budapest.

 He attended Medical University and, after graduating, worked as a dentist for six years.

   In 1996, his interest shifted to the catering business.

 

  He made the decision to introduce the lively and diverse flavors of Africa to the city of Budapest.He opened the first Ethiopian restaurant in town and named it Lalibela.

 Though  he had positive   reviews on his  restaurant  .

He must  haved  realized  that  that the demand for it in Budapest isn't as huge as he thought!   So he totally tried to ride the wave of the latest trends  and  also  serving  traditional  favorites  to  those living in Budapest .

He has been serving affordable and tasty Hungarian dishes, such as stuffed cabbage rolls, at festivals.  He was present at the Hungaroring.  Later, he supplied meat to all the famous Turkish, Arab, and Greek restaurants downtown.

That is why many people in the catering business simply referred to him as "The Gyros King." 

  Rest in peace...

The HAARP experiment in Alaska and the lights in Europe sky

In the midst of the attention focused on the distressing events unfolding in Gaza, the University of Alaska quietly released a statement.

 It was  an  official   annoucement about  a HAARP  experiment  in Alaska  which  might  result in  northern light  effects last weekend .

"During a four-day research campaign commencing on Saturday, the High-frequency Active Auroral Research Program (HAARP) will generate an artificial airglow in the sky, which can potentially be observed by both Alaskans and visitors.

The focus of the experiments will be on the ionosphere, which is the atmospheric region located between approximately 30 and 350 miles above the Earth's surface. "

 Read more 

There were purple-pink light flares in the sky over Hungary, and maybe also in other places.

Our Hungarian scientists soon determined, though, that it was unrelated to the research in Alaska. Why are they deciding it so quickly? A scientist ought to wait for results before placing significant emphasis on them, right? Many of my intelligent friends would like to think that scientists are always telling the truth. To be honest, I find it a comfortable position .

  Two families from Hungary and their Palestinian relatives were able to get permission to leave Gaza, even though they were in a dangerous place with chaotic scenes and the scary sounds of air raids and shrapnel. On Wednesday, it was found that the people in question were on the list of people who were allowed to go away . When they got to Egypt, cars from the Hungarian embassy were waiting for them there after their dangerous trip.On the other hand seven other people of Hungary have decided not to go on the trip to the Rafah crossing right now.

There were air raids ,difficulty to find transportation .It is one hour ride from Gaza city to Raffah crossing . There is no fuel .

For the first time since October 7, the border crossing in the Gaza Strip was opened to refugees. The agreement was negotiated by Qatar, with help from the US.

The transition to a the border was not smooth, with daily lists of allowed crossings revealing the names of 76 wounded Palestinians and 335 foreign nationals, with Palestinians transported to hospitals in Egyptian ambulances.

The Guardian 's video shows the moments of the crossing:

Wars for Nothing Song by Boggie

 

Lyrics

Do you know our Earth is a mess?
All the wars for nothing, it never ends
Everybody deserves a chance
All the souls, all the souls
Can you hear them cry?

That you live in peace does not mean
It's okay to ignore all the pain
I see children joining the stars
Soldiers walk towards the dark
Let me ask

Can you justify all the eyes
That will never see daylight?
Give me one good reason to hurt
A helpless soul, break a heart
Kill a mind

Do you know how many innocents
Are hiding from punishment
For crimes they'd never commit?
All alone, all alone
Do they deserve

To die for believing something else?
For having a face someone can't stand
Do you know our Earth is a mess?
All the wars for nothing
It never ends

All the souls, all alone
Hold them tight
All the souls deserve a chance
At life

Why Qatar Airways CEO resigned suddenly after 27 years ....

What caused Akbar Al Baker, the CEO of Qatar Airways for 27 years, to abruptly leave? 

The formal statement says that he resigned and that someone else has taken his place.

Nothing about this makes sense or seems right! At a company this size, you would expect a transitional change in management. Many people were shocked when he quit without any pomp or ceremony . Given the fact that he has been the CEO of this company for 27 years and has won a lot of awards.

We might never learn more!

I hope that the standard of the airline stays the same.

What terrible people are leading our world ? How incredibly coward you must be to target a hospital ? 😱🌍 A hospital !

I am absolutely devastated . 😭💔 I have dreamed a more progressive world for myself for our children ! 🌍✨

Can't deal with these backward , retarded power-hungry egoists! 😩💔

Humans got no other perspective than creating societies rooted
in solidarity . 💪🌍
Apartheid, racism, war mongering = major crimes! 💔✋🚫

And will lead us just total dark ages instead of the enlightment we could have .

The tale of the American cave explorer and the Hungarian medical caver

 At the begining  of September  2023  an American cave  explorer  found  himself  very unwell  deep in a cave in Southern  Turkey . At the depth of 1,000 meters !

At the same time  a Hungarian  female doctor  was  about to start  her   workday  in a countryside   town , Ballasagyarmat .Then   she   got a call .

She  had to  leave  at once. A  fellow  caver  was  in very big  trouble .He was in desperate need of a skilled cave rescuer. Not just any rescuer would do, though. They required someone with both experience and medical expertise. 

It was  Dr Zsófia Zádor  the only one at that moment who  had  the  rare quality of being  a doctor  and  a cave  rescuer  at the  same time and ready  to  go ...

I can't express how much I respect the cavers for their bravery. I was raised in a special  town in Hungary where many people had the hobby of exploring caves, and I had heard about it a lot. Caves may be hazardous. Unknown currents swallowing humans in the lake cave's  depths. Such tales from my youth come to mind. 

Still  cave exploring remaines  a popular activity in some areas in Hungary .

That  is how  this  Hungarian  woman took  up   this past time  activity  during her  years at the medical university .

That  was  the luck  of the American   caver .   This  woman was ready to go . She was  at the mouth  of the  cave  within  24 hours . Then  she  climbed 13  hours  down to reach  her patient .

He was more than  just  a  patient . Actually ,they knew each other .  He was  a a fellow  caver  , a friend  for a longtime .

Another incredible  luck of this  American  caver  was  his fiancee  Jessica . She was a paramedic  and fearlessly  climbed up  and down  tirelessly bringing for him  medical   aid  .  Do not   forget  !1000 meter  depths !

Long  story short . The  Hungarian  doctor  set  up  an  ICU   down  there .  She began  the  blood   transfusion .  Stabilized  the patient  and  climbed up .      At the  surface she  was replaced by other doctors . She was a woman  who was  terribly  exhausted ! 

The patient  emerged at the surface  after 9 days  down there with a  bleeding   stomach !   A helicopter swiftly  took  him away to the hospital  and   his    was operated . He luckily  survived .   Against  all odds .

Very profound respect for the Hungarian doctor, the committed fiancee, the three cave rescue team assistants, and everyone else who was willing to descend into the depths of the cave to aid a fellow human being in need.

This story profoundly moved me.It's not only because I was born in a town with lots of caves. However, the hospital itself where I was   born is built over a cave system. Caves that had been investigated.caves with a unique environment where persons with respiratory problems can find relief.

People with the same kind of courage once went into those caves...
