Yep. Today marks the end of Arafat's entire life. Have been monitoring the development of his funeral procession. His body was first flown from Paris to Cairo for the funeral. Then, his body will be flown to Ramallah for burial. I was initally puzzled why would his body be flown to Cairo b4 heading home for burial. My colleague said for security reasons. I began to see the picture. True, i doubt world leaders including Arab leaders will be allowed to enter West bank area. So they have to arrange for a less sensitive area where leaders can congregate to bid their final farewell to Arafat. Besides, Israeli may protest for allowing other leaders to arrive in West Bank. No choice but the body have to be flown ard.
I believe he was well liked by his fellow citizens. He was the one who fight for independence and everyone treats him as a National Hero. It was really quite sad to lose such a well respected leader. Palestine have declared national mourning for at least a month. If i remembered correctly, Arafat has been confered the Nobel Peace Award previously. He was really indeed a great man.
Anyway, on another issue, 综 艺 大 哥 大 host 黄 品 源 was here this afternoon. Looks cool and matured. I like his songs and the role that he played on the variety program. Caught a glimpse of him a while cos i was too busy with monitoring Arafat's funeral. Leaving office soon. Will be back in a few hours later. Y? Morning shift lor
