I wanted to let all 15 to 19 year old students to know about the African Leadership Academy Scholarship. We are looking to create the next generation of African Leaders. We are now recruiting students in Tunisia, Libya, Morocco, Mauritania, Algeria, Egypt and Sudan. We believe that agents of positive change, young men and women, are the ones who can change Africa. The corruption, Nepotism, and myriad of social issues that you encounter in your daily lives CAN be changed. The first step in affecting positive change is to educate yourself. The African Leadership Academy provides young leaders with the opportunity to affect positive change. The first step in the process is to fill out an application. You can download an application for free or have one emailed to you. We have application material available in French, Arabic and English. Please visit our website at http://www.africanleadershipacademy.org. For more information, please email me at eoummih@africanleadershipacademy.org.

I did not realise that there are people of similar thinkings out within short distance …..I am so gald to happen to read these words, which are my own thoughts as well.
I salute you for making an effort to put forward this article. I am sure many will read it and will agree to what is the FACT.
I urge all out there whoever gets to read this article to spread the link and let us move forward as better human beings not just as educators.

“Let us not judge others by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.”

It is so very true that the real education anyone can ever get is how to be a good human being. Our first and foremost religion should be humanity. If we fail to acheive the heights of being a “Momin”, then perhaps all our efforts may go to drain making many tears fall along, making many die, depriving many of blessings of the creater…….

I like to thank you from the bottom of my heart for writing such a nice article. I read many articles but I didn’t saw any article as your’s until yet, in which uncountable thoughts emerged in precise and conceptual way. Your article gave me a new way of thinking. Really, I didn’t thought about educational values before. I always thought to attain advanced education but the concept of values I missed somewhere in the race to gain valuable degrees and certificates. Many people wrote on this topic but no one else can amalgamate in such a nice way as you can. Keep it up…. Gud work…. Also, if any help needed from my side in anything in any way just call me too….

Dear Arsalan;

If we all have some conscience left in us…..this article of yours should be an eye opener….as one of my good friend has said ” we have gone into intellectual bankruptcy “…..under the circumstances how do we expect especially our new generation to understand even the normal values of life which has eroded from our society overtime……if our elders & intellectuals were foresighted, our generation especially the new generation would not be suffering the pain & shortcomings in the present time…….speaking of educational values is a longshot……absence of which has deteriorated to such an extent that the very foundation & fabric of our society has started to decay…….it is now too late & cleasing ( revolution ) is the only viable solution for the survival of our country…….this may sound a bit pessimistic but we may live or not but our beloved country must survive for the next generation & we will be history……..we have not been fair to ourselve – our children – & our country – each one of us has been living for himself…& the subsequent consequences is all in front of us……

In the end I would like to thank Arsalan for such a valuable contribution & salute him for his way of thinking being so young himself….& pray to Allah swt for more such Arsalans who can carry on with some concrete contributions for the sake of our country…..if there is anything I can contribute; please call…..someone like me may make a difference……

This is a duplicate article. An earlier version of this contained a comment. Assuming that the newer version of the post is the one the author was interested in publishing, I deleted the older version, not noticing that there was a comment there. I apologize for the inconvenience and urge the writer of that comment to repost it.
