    Hey you I am admired the way you edited the video covering the raw life of Sudanese with no make up and the invitations you accepted and greeting were in natural way. And the negotiations and the escape art with the shopkeepers and drivers you bet are so so true. And of course the locations like market, nursery, bus stand, tuk-tuk stop and the very your instant opinion on the visa centers, hotel views, etc., etc. Especially you madam who disagreed to have a tea on the road-side shop is quite natural as most women prefer to stay reserved on their style and comfort in a hygienic way. Expensive, expensive, expensive you would have told at least 10 times shows it's really costly. Your immediate response to the child beggars at times of no money in your hand. But one opinion over the "Calling of Prayer" through loud speaker in Egypt felt screaming for you shouldn't have been generalized. The word scream degrades. However you opinioned whole-heartedly. The word "Sudan means Safe" is no more good and very particularly Khartoum is in danger today.

      By saying that, you were justifying the well documented terrorism practised by countless US regimes in different parts of the world over the decades since 1945. You were implying that Sudan is a land of terrorists, and they deserved the painful US sanctions that starved Sudan of crucial tools for development, including medical supplies, leading to countless preventable deaths.

      Sadly, Sudan has been through 15 coups since gaining independence in 1956. Also, there’s been several civil wars, killing over 1.5 million people, and splitting the country up. It’s a mess, and I don’t see it improving anytime soon.

    Fr all sudanes people are poor . Because government and politicians they take all the money for themselves. And they didn't use this money to build the country and make it much better! So we as a sudanes people we need change all of these politicains to make our country better, beautiful and progressive. ❤
