High praise for the Yemen Times [Archives:2006/921/Letters to the Editor]

Sultan Ali Mansour
First of all, I want to thank you very much for your efforts in publishing the most attractive and wonderful topics. I appreciate the honest staff who present the best image of Yemen. I always feel pride and happiness when I have purchased your unique newspaper. I have just read several headlines and stories, especially those tackling and discussing internal and external issues, not only with attention and care, but also with honesty, frankness and authenticity.

It's necessary to know precisely the huge responsibility you bear in order to recognize the heaviest burden you carry and deeply understand the vital role you represent. I am not here as a lecturer or a preacher to teach those previously taught. Please pardon if I hurt you or poke my nose in others' lives and affairs.

Since I love you through your revered newspaper and its world-famous writers, thinkers, cultural, political, economic and intellectual personalities, I stand humbly and respectfully before this marvelous independent newspaper to express my deep heartfelt feelings for such an honorable and modest newspaper.

You don't expect the appreciation and admiration I sense for you, particularly regarding recent weekly editions, without discriminating between articles or writers because all of them were and still are very good.
