| The compliments should be shared by all members who contributed and continue to share their thoughts here with us. Bantaba in Cyberspace would be an empty space without all of you, so thank you. |

I join the crowd in expressing my profound appreciation to the entire Bantaba family. A day never go by without me logging onto Bantaba since I discovered it through a friend.
To uncle Momodou, we can only say thank you for creating a platform where we can exchange ideas across the globe. Though far apart, it feels like we live together in the same vicinity.
On a side note, I was wondering if you (Uncle Modou) can educate Bantaba members about the educational program you are involved in the Gambia? Is it possible to open up an avenue where members can contribute financially to expand the scholarship program? I thought with so many members and readership, we could strengthen the foundation by collectively contributing to it. Please, let us upon up the debate and create more positive developments from the Bantaba idea. What say you readers?
Happy New Year to all of you and families.

| i would like to add my name to the list of well wishers of Momodou Camara. I hope the effort, energy, finance you accumulated over the years for the up-keep of this site would be personally rewarded some day. That said my proposal for the new year would be a picture and video gallery for members to send in fond memories of the Gambia with holiday and other pictures and videos they wish to present. Hopefully a Gambian YOU TUBE could be in the making to earn you deserving revenue through adverts for continued running of the site. Just my mind!! |

Dear All,
Here below is the full text of an article written by Momodou Camara in the 90s. I found it quite useful and forward thinking and thought you all might.

First and foremost let us give praise and thanks to the Almighty!
1997 and what a prophetic, optimistic, and forward-looking article. Many of those dreams have come and are coming true and thanks for the complete Djembe!
http://www.djembe.dk/no/58/index.html
Although these are not the best of times and a time of mourning for Momodou’s loss of his beloved Mother, the very feet of Paradise, and we share that sense of loss with you Momodou , even as we congratulate you Momodou for what looks like the tenth anniversary of another great achievement of sustaining the wonderful planet Bantaba in cyberspace. It’s a very valuable contribution to the Gambia and a great service to the community – it’s so well managed, open, public, national, international and mostly the subjects are important topical issues and still a sociable place – the essence of what in Mandinka is called BANTABA.
Youssou Ndour sings Dylan’s “Chimes of Freedom” in Wolof, and I don’t know how this line from the song translates, but Bantaba, in providing the venue for informing and discussing national, social, and cultural and international relations fulfils a function of Dylan’s line
“Tolling for the tongues with no place to bring their thoughts”
because Bantaba so providentially provides a place for us to bring our thoughts and to share our thoughts and sometimes worthy cogitations and visions.
http://bobdylan.com/songs/chimes.html
In another Forum (Sierra Leonean) Sheikh Dr. Umarr Kamara (perhaps a relative of yours?) had expressed the hope that Forum discussions of national issues could HOPEFULLY impact on the directions that government policies take, and likewise we in Bantaba should work towards some of what we say here being heard in the corridors of power, and taken into consideration, with good effect on government policy, because after all, all members of our Bantaba share a unity of purpose and the sense of purpose is nothing less than making a better Gambia and a better world in which to live.
