A final thought: however difficult the last few days have been, it simply doesn’t compare to having to flee your home from persecution or war to seek refuge in a land far away. It’s heartwarming to have seen the empathy towards their plight from so many of you. 3/4

It all comes down to work together. Not wrong to wish to solve it. But stronger beyond engineering, is 'Dare to listen'. 50 year friendship #Bangladesh #theNetherlands @henkovink @deltares @ihedelft @hamidullah_riaz

If a corporation can be defined as a person, why not redefine vaginas as AK47s. That way they’d be free of governmental restrictions by those who care about ‘the sanctity of life’.
