Published

on



Phuntsog Tsering lives a tough life, herding yaks at 5,000m in the Himalayas.

Not much has changed since ancestors used to walk the Silk Road in Ladakh in India.

Young people seek an easier life and he’s now just one of a handful of shepherds left in the village.

    I think it is a bit premature of his kids leaving their ancestral lifestyle to become porters ( coolie ). This is a harsh life that not many modern people like us can survive on, but given the uncertainty of the modern world and its sustainability due to its pollution, war, pandemics, global warming, etc it might be argued that there is a higher chance that him and his kind of people would survive in a collapse of modern civilization. They do not depend on electricity, modern medicine, modern farming practice. We do, and we won't survive if any of these fails. He and his peaple will survive all that as they have doing since ancient times.

    These shepherds (in Ladakh) and people in Baltistan PAK (I am one of them) speak the same language, BALTI. It is very hard for me to understand this purest accent which my Grandparents had spoken. Unfortunately, I speak (could not write & read) Urdusied Englishized Balti. I wish to visit these lands, meet these people and understand this unadulterated language. Only distinguish words like WINTER, WATER, 16, SNOW, DISTANCES, SLEEP, NIGHT etc.

    With a marketing guru the last shepherds could have a properous end. It's interesting that they have no protective herd dogs.

PC Andrew Harper’s killers to stay in jail | BBC News Exclusive

Published

on



Prime Minister Andy Burnham has told the BBC that PC Andrew Harper’s killers will remain behind bars as he announces changes to the early release scheme aimed at easing prison overcrowding. 

In an exclusive interview with BBC Breakfast, Burnham said anyone convicted of manslaughter will be excluded from changes brought in under the Sentencing Act, which would have made the killers eligible for early release. 

Burnham said extra prison spaces would be created by deporting “hundreds” of foreign prisoners and releasing some inmates serving indefinite sentences.

At least 27 dead and hundreds evacuated after strike on Kyiv warehouse | BBC News

Published

on



Twenty-seven people have been killed and almost 400 evacuated after a Russian strike hit a warehouse near Kyiv, triggering a fire and a series of explosions.

Regional governor Tymur Tkachenko said a further 42 people, including four children, were injured after the Russian drone strike in the Bucha district.

An investigation has been launched into whether ammunition was being stored at the site, where search and rescue operations were ongoing early on Saturday.

Russia’s Ministry of Defence said in a statement that its forces had targeted “an ammunition depot” in the Kyiv region village of Myla, which stores “components and launch boosters for FP-1/FP-2 long-range unmanned aerial vehicles”.

Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky expressed his condolences to the families of the victims of the strike, saying that more than 300 emergency respondents had been deployed to the strike area.
