Yes, everyone has the right to be. Read about Miss Landmine Survivor pageant on the news, held in Africa 2 days ago. These contestants are all maimed by landmines in their own provinces. In Angola, there are still 300 - 400 people who are maimed by landmines left behind by the 3 decade civil war.
Damn. bloody civil war. 300 to 400 is ALOT.
Take a look at the map they have at the Miss Landmine official site.

So many areas filled with landmines! And they have caused many more (other than just the contestants) unemployed. Sigh.
For more details on the pageant, read here. Way to go, ladies!
Anyway, TGIF!
PS: Haven’t got the mood to switch on my laptop at home since I started work, so no updates on grandma’s bday. Need pictures, visit Qixuan’s blog on my Friends page. I suppose this part of my entry is only for Shan, haha!
