DEAR EDITOR,
The world is celebrating and lauding the distinguished achievement of Malala Yousafzai, Pakistani child education activist, for sharing this Year’s Nobel Peace Prize with Indian child rights campaigner, Kailash Satyarthi.
The road to this outstanding acclamation at just age seventeen, the youngest recipient of the Prize, has been well documented for Malala. She came to prominence in October 2012 after surviving an attack by the Taliban in 2012 in her home state in Pakistan for championing education for girls. One of her defining moments was her address to the United Nations in 2013.
Malala can only serve as an inspiration to girls and women the world over and I add my share of wishes for her continued successes and well being.
Equally alongside Malala Yousafzai is another Malala, in the person of Nathalie Caseley, who has been waging a relentless battle with authorities since the death of her son, Jaden Mars, last December.
Ms. Caseley must be commended for her resoluteness and fortitude as she fights for justice for her son.
Two women from different corners of the world fighting for different causes, but held by the common string of belief in what they are doing not just for themselves, but the greater good.
Malala is a heroine but Nathalie is my heroine too.

LISTEN HOW JAGDEO WILL MAKE ALL GUYANESE RICH!!!
