Re: [mukto-mona] Malala becomes latest money-making tool amongst Pak-origin community in UK

Most Charity organizations have high over-heads; even Red-Cross Administrators draw high salaries. The small amount that goes to the victims should justify the donation initiatives. --- On Sat, 11/17/12, Subimal Chakrabarty <subimal@yahoo.com> wrote: From: Subimal Chakrabarty <subimal@yahoo.com> Subject: Re: [mukto-mona] Malala becomes latest money-making tool amongst Pak-origin community in UK To: "mukto-mona@yahoogroups.com" <mukto-mona@yahoogroups.com> Date: Saturday, November 17, 2012, 1:52 PM   We have seen in the past some Bangladeshi Americans raising money for natural calamity affected people in Bangladesh. I have heard that small portions of those funds only went to the real victims.

Unless it is a fraudulent operation, we should appreciate it. Since I don't know if it is fraudulent, I say - God bless those who have taken the initiative. I see some discontent among some people with the publicity and attention Malala is receiving from the international community. Anyone understands why?   Jiten Roy   --- On Sat, 11/17/12, Farida Majid <farida_majid@hotmail.com> wrote: From: Farida Majid <farida_majid@hotmail.com> Subject: [mukto-mona] Malala becomes latest money-making tool amongst Pak-origin community in UK To: Date: Saturday, November 17, 2012, 5:04 AM   http://www.dnaindia.com/world/report_malala-becomes-latest-money-making-tool-amongst-pak-origin-community-in-uk_1765370 << The horrific attack on Pakistani teenager Malala Yousufzai by the Taliban is being seen as another money-making venture by certain sections of the society.
