Yeah phones(Mobile+Landline) went off for some time. Now back.
Dr Awab, Can’t bloggers define an allied strategy against these bullshits of Mush regime & write continuously to aware people. Currently most blogs are One man show, just defining point of view for a single person.
Sorry, If can’t explain accordingly, but I think you will get it.
