Journal Entry 4
News Paper Article: Sunday 5th February, 2012 (page10)
After reading the headlines I thought that the people of Cedros we complaining about the crime situation, but after reading the article in it's entirety I found that they were talking about life on a whole just not one aspect. The fact that they lost their way of making a living when the coconut industry in their community fell apart, people stopped caring especially when it seemed like the government and no one cared, everyone just gave up and stopped taking pride in what was theirs. They let their animals go astray and over run the community therefore making it difficult on their neighbors as well. But with the intervention of the Ministry of Agriculture they feel like some one does care and is willing to go the extra mile to take back their community and rebuild it to what it was and even better. You see when people feel that you have a vested interest in them they give 110%
