Hi all,

I don’t think this broadcast will do a damn thing. Neither women nor the broadcast was assertive enough to let the public know what is really going on.

Agreed! The tone of the broadcast was conciliatory, suggesting that everything is just fine. I was hoping for something a little more critical.

Folks in the state and the NGO community have to be careful as all (for the parks employee) and much (Bird Conservancy) of their funding comes from public sources. It is those of us who are from the outside to be rabble rousers.
