“I think we as a general society should go out and look for those people we can help… rather than giving the person the fish, teach them how to fish” By Gary Eleazar This is a trait that is seemingly desired in Guyana especially when there is perception that this is a nation replete with horrible stereotypes, such as the adverse labelling of neighbourhoods.One such neighbourhood is that of Albouystown, in Georgetown.The Order of Canada or Ordre du Canada is an honour for merit that is,Petr Mrazek Red Wings Jersey, within the Canadian system of honours, the highest administered by the Governor General-in-Council.Winston Shyam Liaquat KassimBeing awarded this honour is also, by any yardstick, an immense achievement but one Guyanese has managed to gain this distinction.A more inspiring fact is that the first, yes, the first Guyanese ever to be bestowed with this honour, hails from Albouystown.For his significant and consistent contributions over the last 30 years as a dedicated humanitarian throughout the world including Guyana, Winston Shyam Liaquat Kassim, earlier this year was awarded the Order of Canada, Canada’s highest civilian award.Born at 132 King Edward Street Albouystown, Georgetown, he is the sixth of seven children of the late Superintendent of Police, Subaydar Kassim (retired in 1971) and Hajjin Noorun Nisa Kassim.His elder brothers are retired Deputy Commissioner of Police, Sultan Feroze Kassim and the late Dr. Sultan Farook Kassim while his sisters are Bibi Fernando, Dolly Dhaniram, Anne Sawh and Ingrid Innes, who are all currently residing in Canada.Kassim attended St. Patrick’s Anglican School in East Canje, Berbice after moving from Georgetown. His father’s duties entailed that he served in different locations.Kassim completed his primary education at St. George’s Anglican School in Georgetown before attending the Indian Education Trust College in Georgetown. He began his professional career at Barclays Bank while still a teenager.He rapidly advanced, rose through the ranks at the bank, which led to him running various banking operations in Dominica, St. Lucia, and Barbados.During this time, Kassim completed his professional banking exams and by the age of 22 returned to Guyana assuming his role as Senior Supervisor with Barclays Bank (which subsequently became GBTI) and it was at this time that he began to focus on volunteer work.It was in 1975 that Kassim moved to Canada with his wife, Kameni Cheddie, to seek out greater opportunities.Shortly after immigrating to Toronto, he re-started his career in banking at Royal Bank of Canada as a management trainee, working from the ground up but although he had to put a lot of effort in his professional career,Bryan Rust Adidas Jersey, he always maintained a focus on giving back to the community.This newspaper sat with Kassim recently to get a glimpse into what makes him tick and more so why he did not just turn his back on his countrymen but decided to help not just here but overseas.The humble but yet personable and approachable Kassim recently spent sometime in Guyana at his brother’s Duke Street residence, and allowed Kaieteur News a glimpse into what drives him to do what he does.He attributed his humility to his well-rounded religious background as he has been regularly attending churches, mosques and mandirs.When he moved from Georgetown to Berbice, where he first started out in an Anglican School, his family ties to both the Muslim and Hindu sects, prompted him to be actively involved in both worlds.His grandfather on his mother’s side was the first Imam of the Adelphi Village Mosque in the early 1900s.Kassim recalled that it was the generosity of a teacher and how he helped to transform the future of his family through the edification of his father that led to the opportunities.His mother had the equivalent of a grade five education while his father who grew up on the estate had the equivalent of a grade two education.“Having seen the drive and determination in my father, my mother’s next door neighbour,Dan Fouts Chargers Jersey, a gentleman by the name of Percy Liverpool who was the Headmaster, saw that drive and agreed to tutor him on a part time basis.”He said that while this arrangement was a part time basis (and free of cost) it ensured that his father was well tutored and caused him to rise to the level of a high school education for which he wrote the exams.Currently the Vice Chairperson of the International Development Relief Foundation (IDRF), it was the lesson taught by Liverpool that ingrained in Kassim that to help those in need was a duty and not a luxury.To Kassim, community service is neither an obligation nor a responsibility and it is more like an infatuation in which he dedicates much of his time and energy.His volunteer work has positively impacted disadvantaged people from all corners of the earth in some 21 countries including Afghanistan, Bangladesh,Authentic Dirk Nowitzki Mavericks Jersey, Bosnia,Matt Dumba Jersey, Chechnya, Ethiopia, Guyana, Palestine, Sudan, South Africa and of course Canada, to name a few.During the 1980s Kassim broadened his volunteerism to a more global stage. International pressure sparked political and social changes in South Africa through the “Free Nelson Mandela” campaign.This according to Kassim fuelled one of his most proud of achievements.When this newspaper asked for a photograph of himself and Mandela, Kassim said that when he did meet Mandela upon his release, capturing the moment for all time in a photograph was the least of his concerns since he did not undertake the endeavour in search of fame or glory but rather it was a duty to help a great man in need.Kassim worked with various groups/individuals to write articles and letters lobbying the Canadian government to support the release of Nelson Mandela.Under the Brian Mulroney government, Canada as the Head of the Commonwealth led the call for sanctions against the South African apartheid,Aleksandar Kolarov Manchester City Jersey UK, culminating in the release of Nelson Mandela.Canada’s efforts through Kassim and others towards the release of Mandela propelled it to gain world prominence for its moral position.Kassim continued his lobbying by working on the committee for the sponsorship of Nelson Mandela as an Honorary Canadian Citizen.Kassim,Chris Chelios Red Wings Jersey, through his charitable organisation some three years ago, commenced a humanitarian programme in Guyana where women are taught a skill to develop themselves. These included sewing and cooking with some persons who had benefited even migrating the country.Kassim is involved in work for the Berbice area where more than 100 hundred women have benefited and there are plans to expand.According to Kassim, after consulting with some charitable organisations in Guyana, the IDRF choose to help not based on religion, colour, class or creed but rather on sustainable development.He emphasised that the type of work being done in Guyana is, “rather than giving the person the fish, we teach them how to fish.”The programme currently being undertaken by Kassim in Guyana facilitates some 160 marginalised rural women being given an opportunity to start entrepreneurial activities and to build capacity and self-confidence among rural women entrepreneurs through training.The programme, according to Kassim,Brooks Laich Capitals Jersey, is also aimed to give technical assistance on catering, sewing and knitting.When asked what advice he would impart on young Guyanese who feels disenfranchised or without hope, Kassim felt that “education is the fundamental part of trying to upgrade a person’s skills.”He said that the lessons of the teacher, Liverpool, “who has helped my father…that has been instilled in me repeatedly because had it not been for education I would not have been here today.”Kassim felt, however, one of the greatest lessons came from his mother “who instilled in me to take care of the under privileged, but to do so in a quiet manner.”“I think we as a general society should go out and look for those people we can help.”On an international level,Bryan Trottier Penguins Jersey, Kassim has also greatly contributed to Canada’s recognition as one of the top philanthropic countries in the world.He mentioned that during a meeting with the Minister of Human Services and Social Security, Priya Manickchand, she had indicated a willingness to emulate the IDRF programme in other underprivileged areas.作者: hmxiang6y 時間: 2017-8-10 03:47 標題: maillot de foot pas cher 82945 Kvinnor Outerwear

About this time Lockwood took up a course of Arctic literature, with which they were liberally supplied. This was chiefly in view of his sledge-journey in the coming spring.

Weaker than most men, I have submitted to your will, Margaret, up to this hour, but your reign is over at last,Canada Goose Banff Parka, and — and —” The passionate words died away, the feverish energy succumbed, and with one last look into my face, Samuel Pollard fell back upon his pillow, dead.
Chapter 19
A Fatal Delay.
Would’st thou have that

And live a coward in thine own esteem,
Letting “I dare not,” wait upon “I would,Canada Goose Ontario Parka,”
Like the poor cat i’ the adage?
MACBETH.
He was to all appearance immediately forgotten. As with mutual consent we all turned and faced each other, Mrs. Pollard with a stern, inexorable look in her dark eye, which, while it held me enchained, caused me to involuntarily lay my hand upon the document which I had hidden in my breast She noticed the movement,Luis Suarez Tröja, and smiled darkly with a sidelong look at her son. The smile and the look affected me strangely. In them I seemed to detect something deeper than hatred and baffled rage, and when in a moment later her son responded to her glance by quietly withdrawing from the room, I felt such revolt against their secrecy that for a moment I was tempted to abandon an undertaking that promised to bring me in conflict with passions of so deep and unrelenting a nature.
But the impression which the pain and despair of my dead friend had made upon me was as yet too recent for me to yield to my first momentary apprehensions; and summoning up what resolution I possessed,Los Angeles Kings Barn, I took my leave of Mrs. Pollard,Nike Free Run Herr, and was hastening towards the door, when her voice, rising cold and clear,Cesc Fabregas Koszulka, arrested me.
“You think, then, that it is your duty to carry this paper from the house,Serie A, Mr. Barrows?”
“Yes, madam, I do,” was my short reply.
“In spite of my protest and that of my son?”
“Yes, madam.”
“Then upon your head be the consequences!” she exclaimed, and turned her back upon me with a look which went with me as I closed the door between us; lending a gloom to the unlighted halls and sombre staircases that affected me almost with an impulse of fear.
I dreaded crossing to where the stairs descended; I dreaded going down them into the darkness which I saw below. Not that I anticipated actual harm,Män Ralph Lauren Hoodies, but that I felt I was in the house of those who longed to see me the victim of it; and my imagination being more than usually alert, I even found myself fancying the secret triumph with which Guy Pollard would hail an incautious slip on my part, that would precipitate me from the top to the bottom of this treacherous staircase. That he was somewhere between me and the front door,CG Naiset Chilliwack Bomber untuvatakki Suomi, I felt certain. The deadly quiet behind and before me seemed to assure me of this; and, ashamed as I was of the impulse that moved me, I could not prevent myself from stepping cautiously as I prepared to descend, saying as some sort of excuse to myself: “He is capable of seeing me trip without assistance,” and as my imaginalinks:
