According to Swedish daily Aftonbladet on Saturday,
Some 70,000 Swedes received neo-Nazi propaganda via E-mail on
Christmas Eve, sent to them by the Swedish neo-Nazi organization
Nordland,

The letters included "strong racial propaganda hostile to immigrants"
and advertisements for Nordland's home page on the Internet. They also
hailed the "white race" and claimed the Holocaust never took place.

Many upset Swedes who received the propaganda called Aftonbladet after
the paper ran a first story about a single recipient. According to
Aftonbladet, all of the recipients it spoke to had Internet
subscriptions with the Swedish server Algonet.

Greetings
Matarr M. Jeng.

Oil Industry Profile

The Gambia


The Africa Upstream 97 and Southern and Central African Downstream
conferences, organised by leading African oil consultants Global Pacific
and Partners and scheduled for mid-October 1997 in beautiful Cape Town,
provide excellent opportunities to gain a first hand knowledge of the
African oil industry and meet key industry players.



There are no known oil or gas reserves in the small West African republic
of the Gambia and its oil industry is dependent on the importation of
refined petroleum products from the Dakar refinery in neighbouring Senegal
and other sources.

The downstream market is small with a product throughput of approximately
50 000 - 80 000 tons per annum. Distribution and marketing of fuels
products is carried out by Shell and other companies.

Gambia has one storage / terminal facility. The facility is old and, due to
its location in a built-up area, considered to be potentially hazardous to
the local population. The construction of a new storage facility comprising
six tanks with a total capacity of 21,000 tons is being considered. The
tankage would be adequate to cater for maximum demand during the tourist
season and also give three months cover. Discussions are also being held
regarding the construction of a fuel oil facility to supply the local power
station.

Gambia-L,
Qatar & EmirateTvs.have just announced that Ramadan begins
tomorrow,Tuesday.So,I guess the CEESAYS and BADIBUNKAS are in deep
trouble!Of course,they could always steal water during the many showers
they always take during Ramadan afternoons.Who, except god, would know
about it? But again,thats the great thing about fasting:Only God really
knows who is keeping fast.And these people are so smart at faking
tiredness!!

So,on behalf of the Drammeh Kunda Nkoolu,I am hereby begging these people
not to steal water this time around.Its just a matter of thirty days and
Not thirty months.

In the meantime,I am wishing everyone on the bantabaa a happy Ramadan and
New Year,and and Please keep Up the good work down there!

Regards Bassss!

We wish you the same.May we all have the blessings of the Holy month of
Ramadan bestowed upon us and our dear country.
One of the greatest gifts to us all came during this holy month.
Moses(Musa ) Jesus (Issa) and several other prophets got their devine
revealations during this month including the last prophet Muhamed(peace
be upon them all) on lailatul Qadri.
Happy new year and Eid in advance to all on Gambia-l.

In the name of God, the beneficient, the merciful.
Sirs and Madams,
May I take this opportunity to wish each and everyone a happy New
Year in advance. May God guide us into it peacefully and successfully.
As we will enter into the month of ramadan tonight, I wish to remind
everyone how faithful one has to be in this month. Let us not forget
that we are not only abstrain from food and water, but as well all
enjoyments like dancing, listening to music etc. Backbiting also is
prohibited not only in this month. Let us try and accomodate Holy
Qur-an recitation in our daily schedule, as it pays well in this month
especially.
What we in the west have to try and control is our sense of seeing. We
are in a society where there is no rule on how to dress, therefore we sh
ould try to deny this sense in certain aspects in trying to keep our
fasting perfect.
To Camaras and Jabangs, please for heaven's sake try and keep fast.
Asalamu Alaikum.

Well said Buba and may I add that if you got to this site on the net you
will get more details on Ramadan
http://users.aol.com/hineaf/files/ramzan.ht.
By the wat this is the easiest period for fasting( short days and colder
climate) so there should be no difficulties expected here in the USA.

I second Awa's comments. I hope everyone had a good Christmas (those that
do celebrate it) or a good holiday (those that don't). I also hope that
everyone that fasts has a successful month, in that they find what they
search for with the guidance of Allah. And lastly, I would like to wish you
all a great year.

Even though members have fought, argued, and differed in opinions during some
heated debates, the creative and insightful nature of postings to The List has
drawn admires like me to this Bantaba - on a daily basis.

Thanks Moe, and the same to you. It=B4s been a privilege to be a member =
of
this Gambia-L.
About producing famous leaders. The persons mentionned are all
well respected here, and I often think that they had a vision but also
an "enemy" and a goal to fight for - freedom for their nation and =
people
from the colonial rulers. And that was visible for their people also.
While the leaders of today must put up other visions, which are more
"political sensitive interior", and then they will face more problems =
to
become carismatic leaders for their nation or people. It=B4s hard work =
to
become respected today. This is only a personal thought which I =

know is an answer to your question. Asbj=F8rn Nordam

Hi Sister Jabou,

Thanks for your prayers and best wishes. May Allah give you back the lion's
share of it for the sake of the Holy month of RAMADAN! Probably we shall
start fasting tomorrow Wednesday.

May Allah, therefore, help us all complete the RAMADAN in peace, good faith
and health.

To subscribe a friend tell him/ her to send a mail to
LISTPROC@U.WASHINGTON.EDU
with the message:
SUBSCRIBE GAMBIA-L <Name and surname>
Note that the "Subject" field should be blank.


An example:
If I want to subscribe to the Gambia-l, this is what I should do:

First of all, I should send the following from the e-mail address I
intend to use for sending and receiving mails from the Gambia-l.

Then the message should be like this:-
----------------------------------------------------------------
To: listproc@u.washington.edu
Subject:
Cc:


Subscribe Gambia-l Momodou Camara

------------------------------------------------------------------
This message is usually received by the Subscription Managers who
will then add the person requesting membership.

Thanks Mr.Gibba for the Best Wishes! The same thing to you.This FORUM has
been a great Instrument for Gambians to learn to disagree without being
unnecessarily disagreable.That is something we Gambians are not terribly
used to.But most of us have by now proven to be very good student at
learning this new cultural skill,which,by the way,is absolutely necessary
for running any pluralistic democracy.

So,I am hereby adding my voice to yours in praying that 1998 be better in
terms of Maturity and Good Sense of Humour,two important ingredients for
conducting any meaningful debate at an adult level.

A very Happy,Prosperous and Enjoyable 1998 to everyone in this
bantabaaa;and please Keep Up The Good Work Down There!

Regards Basssss!

Fellow Gambia-lers,
As you may have known, I had a major hardware breakdown that effectively
placed me out of reach for some four-and-a-half weeks. It is great to be up
and running again more effectively than ever before. As i begin sorting out
my mail, I would cease this opportunity to extend a big welocme to all new
subscribers, especially those from or have connections with Kartong (Lamin
Jaiteh, and Saikou B. Njai).
But I am also wishing everyone a HEALTHY, EDUCATIVE, AND MEMORABLE 1998.

Momodou S. Sidibeh, Kartong/Stockholm.

Hello Buharry,
The apology should have come from me. I think looking back, my formulation
was terribly poor. I did not mean to say that your criticism was unfair
because of any personal reason/s - such as me being secretary - or that
because we deserve praise.(In fact the way my note began sounded like "hey,
I am boss here. So you better be careful !" - an elitist kind of attitude
completely antithetical to my own nature). Rather the unfairness I meant
was your failure to mention the good things we did here for over ten years.
This and other matters I will write about as soon as I sort out my time
during the coming week-end.
Besides that, I must cease this opportunity to express my sincere thanks
for helping me out in spreading the message about ambasador Bojang's visit,
and for introducing this very important topic in the first place.

Have a really great 1998.
Sidibeh, Kartong/Stockholm.

Hi to all gambia-lers,
I'd like to say that I am just happy to join you guys
and hope to be able to contribute to the best of my
abilities to the development of this forum for
fruitful debates.
Talking about myself, I would say that I was born in
Kerr Cherno Baba, in the Niumi District for those who
don't know, but I spent most of my time out of the
country. I am presently in Malaysia pursuing a degree
in Economics but hope to leave this place very soon.
Before signing off, let me wish a HAPPY NEW YEAR,to
all of you, and to the Muslims, RAMADAN MUBAARAK. May
God bless all. PEACE!

Welcome back Mr.Sidibeh.We have missed a lot,and we are glad that you have
by now "sorted out" your hardware problem.

Having said that,I think you have to bear in mind when promoting your that
virtually unknown little Kartong is that there are countless Sukuru Kunda
people around here, and I am not so sure they would allow you to promote
your little village at the expense of a metropolis like Sukuru Kunda.Even
the Gunjurr people who have been making here a lot of noise have now
apparently calmed down.

In the meantime,a very happy,prosperous and enjoyable 1998 to everyone on
the Bantabaa and that includes people from the little village next to
Gunjurr.And to all of you down there ,I say: Keep Up The Good Work!

Regards Bassss!

Please stop making fun of people from Gunjur. Although I was not raised

Okay,I will try to be nice to Gunjurr.But Kartong is something else
altogether.We once went there to play football, and we won.Guess what
happened after that?! Our Hosts threatened to beat us up.Can you imagine
that? But there No Way big brother,Sere Kunda would fight with tiny
kartong.Not that we were scared or anything of that nature........

A happy Ramadan to all of you!

Hello everyone.

Ten years ago I spent two weeks in Kartong, with three other Swedes from
the association Vanort i uland from the town of Alingsas, Sweden. At the
time, I was only twelve. The association is concerned with exchange and
assistance with and to the village of Kartong. Is the possibly anyone on
this list that I might have met during my short stay in your country?

Presently, I am planning to visit Gambia again in may-june 1998. I am a
second year student in medicine and together with a fellow student, I am
hoping to be able to carry out a basic study on malaria. =20

Hi everyone

I am Winston Abraham and as you all might know by now, I am a new member.
Though i have been a member for a couple of weeks now, i have been busy trying
to size the quality of the message being channeled through this medium.

To my surprise, i am amazed at the kind of connection this medium brings
among Gambians. It should be pass on so that all the family can benefit from
this vast medium of communication that is able to help us bond in a way.

I hope the NEW YEAR is already doing yoou all some good

I would like to take this opportunity to introduce myself to all the members
of the gambia-l, and to wish everybody a Happy New Year. May 1998 brings good
health and peace to our Gambia.

I am a native of Kaur, attended Gambia High in 1973-1979. Briefly was employed
at the Price Control Unit just after graduation from High school. Left the
Gambia in 1982 in search of educational opportunities in the US. I have
completed an undergraduate degree in Finance and a graduate degree in
Hospitality Management. Presently employed with the Marriott Corporation as an
Accountant.

Being part of such a group is an ideal beginning for 1998, and I hope that
this medium can bring all of us as Gambians to refocus to the serious issues
that affect our country. Thanks for the opportunity

DAKAR, Senegal (Reuters) - Senegal's ambassador to Gambia
said Friday that an offer of mediation by Gambia in the 15-year
rebellion in southern Senegal stood a good chance of success.
In a New Year message, Gambian President Yahya Jammeh
offered to mediate an end to the separatist war in Senegal's
Casamance province which has intensified since last August.

Beloved brothers and sisters:

Happy new year to you all. May Allah, the Eternal, guide us all in our
aspirations to achieve our desired aspirations in this 1998 (amen). May
the brothers and sisters we lost in 1997 rest in perfect peace, and may
Allah bring peace among all couples so we may not suffer any such loss.
1997 was a bitter-sweet year on this forum; we deliberated, we argued,
we cummunicated "tense" wording, but it all boiled to interesting and
educative flow of information among Gambians and Non-Gambians world
wide. May 1998 therefore bring even better discussions.
Well, as of 8:00am this Sunday, I will try Mr. Touray's menthod to
suspend receiving mail till sometime soon. I am bound for the Gambia
(home sweet home) on January 7, and will be leaving Lexington for
Atlanta at 8:00am Sunday. I will be enjoying the "very" nice ocean
breeze at Gunjur (my home town), something Bro. Bass don't enjoy in
Serre Kunda ...oops! Can you imagine how much I miss smoked fish? How
about "kobo"/"chalo". Bass, I should be able to package some for you if
you will give me your address (laugh). I guess sister Jabou and some
other folks on this list can tell you a little bit of the secret at the
Gunjur beach (home sweet home). Cousin Awa, don't mind Bass I will
silence him with our well smoked fish and fresh cow milk.. ha! ha!
Achi and Pa-Musa, I would love to meet with you folks. You folks are my
heroes for the brilliant commentary of the recent Zone II tourney in the
Gambia. I can be reached at *** 486-006 *** (Gujur).

May Allah accept our fasting.

GOD BLESS!

Pa-Mambuna, the Blue Grass State.

Hej KollehCherno,
Thanks for the rewelcoming. Being away because of a hardware breakdown is
not quite the same thing as being absent because one prioritises other
engagements. So it felt like I missed much more than I actually did.
Bass, on the international plane, Gambia is a typically small country whose
citizens' noisiness is in complete disproportion to their country's size.
That way the world gets no chance to forget us. Kartong must have to live
up to that reputation.
It is unfortunate if you felt that we were threatening to beat you up
physically. We were simply putting aross the point that once in Kartong, it
does not matter how big your home town is.

Modou Sidibeh, Kartong/Stockholm.

Bro Bass,

You know, I wont leave you hanging, I got your back on behalf of Serrekunda
"the Dutto Boys." For a minute I thought you were confusing Kartong and
Sukuta, because thats were I almost got my whooping after a soccer game,
thanks to the help of friends such as Solloh Cham and my very own first
cousins fron Tunkara Kunda, then Solloh been my class-mate at Muslim had a
field-day with that incident the next day.

Well, Bass if need be I can rally round more "Ndongos" and we can take down
the London/Bakoteh bridge and see how they'll get to us!

Peace,
Baboucarr Sillah

Finally,someone has heard my plea! Its good to have brothers in high
place.Yes, Abubacar,try to contact as many Sere Kundarians(I mean,the real
Dutto Boys) as possible,incase these people from kartong and gunjurr (am
not sure if i should add Saabiji on the list),want to do anything funny!

You know I didn't know that the Saabijinkoolu also try to beat you up when
you win them.Poor Sukuru kunda! They are always the victims of their
success in soccer.

Again,bro Sillah,it was great that you heeded my call to show solidarity to
our Eternal City.And Keep Up The Good Work Down There!

Regards Bassss!

Pa Mambuna,
Wish that l was headed for Gunjur village, Kombo South right now. Safe
journey. Believe me, those dusty Sukuru-kunda folks do not have the refined
palate to enjoy good sea food or a beautiful beach for that matter. As for
Momodou Sidibeh the Kartongite, we will just ignore his criticisms of Gunjur,
it's the empty pots that always rattle the most, l say. Best of luck and hope
to see you there sometime in the near future.

Jabou Joh.

<<Beloved brothers and sisters:

Happy new year to you all. May Allah, the Eternal, guide us all in our
aspirations to achieve our desired aspirations in this 1998 (amen). May
the brothers and sisters we lost in 1997 rest in perfect peace, and may
Allah bring peace among all couples so we may not suffer any such loss.
1997 was a bitter-sweet year on this forum; we deliberated, we argued,
we cummunicated "tense" wording, but it all boiled to interesting and
educative flow of information among Gambians and Non-Gambians world
wide. May 1998 therefore bring even better discussions.
Well, as of 8:00am this Sunday, I will try Mr. Touray's menthod to
suspend receiving mail till sometime soon. I am bound for the Gambia
(home sweet home) on January 7, and will be leaving Lexington for
Atlanta at 8:00am Sunday. I will be enjoying the "very" nice ocean
breeze at Gunjur (my home town), something Bro. Bass don't enjoy in
Serre Kunda ...oops! Can you imagine how much I miss smoked fish? How
about "kobo"/"chalo". Bass, I should be able to package some for you if
you will give me your address (laugh). I guess sister Jabou and some
other folks on this list can tell you a little bit of the secret at the
Gunjur beach (home sweet home). Cousin Awa, don't mind Bass I will
silence him with our well smoked fish and fresh cow milk.. ha! ha!
Achi and Pa-Musa, I would love to meet with you folks. You folks are my
heroes for the brilliant commentary of the recent Zone II tourney in the
Gambia. I can be reached at *** 486-006 *** (Gujur).

May Allah accept our fasting.

GOD BLESS!

Pa-Mambuna, the Blue Grass State.

Pa Mambuna:

For a while I wondered why you sat back and watched this Serrekunda boy (Bass
of course) trash beautiful Gunjur.

I think you've gotten him shaken so badly, that he is crying for help. The
unfortunate thing is that his "home boys" are not brave enough to come to his
rescue. Poor Bass - you've commenced a battle you may not conquer!

Thanks for watching out for us and taking care of business Pa.

Regards to everyone back home - and don't forget to relay my messages to Ida
and mom.

Like the Serrekunda boy would say "keep up the good work down there!"


Awa Sey
