What’s up, everybody! Here are JETLAG RADIO 508 & BENKYO RADIO 508.

I think it’s really important to listen to what the WHO chief has said: “The World treats crises affecting black, white lives unequally.” While the Ukraine crisis is important, it’s a “fraction” of the attention given elsewhere.

We need not to forget about the on-going crisis in Afghanistan, Yemen, Syria, and Palestine. Not to mention many parts of Africa.

Until Next Time!
