The Angus: January 2011
http://anguslambkin.blogspot.com/2011_01_01_archive.html
Thoughts of a jobbing international development worker from Belfast, currently working in the Democratic Republic of Congo. Monday, 31 January 2011. The human rights oriented world lamented the situation in Egypt due to rights abuses. The property oriented world now laments the situation in Egypt due to property abuses. These two sides seem unable to communicate with one another at the required level to bring about a situation that is to their mutual satisfaction. Links to this post. To not be upset when...

Thoughts of a jobbing international development worker from Belfast, currently working in the Democratic Republic of Congo. Tuesday, 31 January 2012. On China's multiple republics. Is Taiwan a part of China'. The standard make or break question that a lot of Han Chinese in the People's Republic of China. Ask the foreigner. I gave the simple diplomatic answer to a young Communist Party member who asked. I said 'yes, but it's not part of the People's Republic, it's part of the Republic of China. 160;and...

http://anguslambkin.blogspot.com/2013/03/mother-why-i-wander.html
Thoughts of a jobbing international development worker from Belfast, currently working in the Democratic Republic of Congo. Tuesday, 12 March 2013. Mother, why I wander. Mother, why I wander. Mother, I know you wonder. Why I walk this world alone. From Asia to Africa. Through their streets I roam. Why I took up the burden. Why I filled that parting glass. To leave a land I love so much. The many mercies of Belfast. It could all have been so different. Nearly sixteen years ago this year. Like as said, may...

http://anguslambkin.blogspot.com/2011_09_01_archive.html
Thoughts of a jobbing international development worker from Belfast, currently working in the Democratic Republic of Congo. Wednesday, 28 September 2011. Add a killer slide'. Confusing words indeed to receive in a work email, that had no bearing on an invitation to go tubing in Laos. Nor did it have any bearing on the work that I do. Working for a humanitarian agency, words like 'killer' are not uncommon. they can refer to fistula. Growing up in a conflict prone zone. The purpose of raising it here is to...
