    Seen a few Chinese children, like even three to a couple – obviously born in Zed. Back in China, I hear they are only allowed one child or none. I hope our children won’t have to jostle for space in the near future with their Zambian born Chinese counterparts if the rate illustrated above is anything to go by!

    Honestly, one thing I have observed and appreciate about certain folk of a particular tribe or two, is, they do not use vulgar language, no matter the circumstances! I bet the tongue kind of gets heavy,leading to a tied tongue and so they do not insult! Must be something to do with a proper upbringing. I wish to give credit to those, and encourage them to just exhibit brilliance even when dealing with uncouthness.

    The british queen does not care if you speak english properly or write properly. To her you are just a poor black African forceing yourself to speak her language. She will never speak any African language so why not screw her language by the back side.
