Strategic Investment in People

Buy People and hold.



Whether you believe that we are getting close to this situation in the UAE or elsewhere in the world (Indeed, we may already be there), please consider sign the slavery business as usual petition. Signing the petition will help to raise the issue at the UN. Also, please forward the website to as many people as possible. We've been guaranteed by the Julia Ormond, the Goodwill Ambassador for Slavery and Human Trafficking to the UN, that if we get 20,000 names from the petition, modern slavery will be raised in the UN Security Council. This would be a huge feat and would ensure massive awareness
and change in this arena.

Slavery Business as Usual Petition

Spam from Dubai

With competition comes spam, with offers, marketing and general rubbish. Sometimes this infuriates me and I chose to find out how I can get off this mailing list. No doubt I will be fighting a lost cause because no one really polices this area and users details are sold for a few fils.

I received some trash today about some medical training in Dubai, which is obviously nothing to do with me. I draw your attention to the last line.

Of course, with this being a spam about doctor training, this line could have crept in as a little in joke. But, knowing Dubai, it probably wasnt.
