Congratulations Yemen Times
Congratulations on developing a newspaper which we all can read with pride. What you have accomplished in a relatively short time is no less than a miracle. The reporting is excellent and the editorials are always provocative and educational. You have elevated the standards of journalism, not only in Yemen, but in other neighboring countries. Since the majority of people in the Arab world, including Yemen, do not speak English, it would be highly desirable if you could have an Arabic version of this most informative and enlightened newspaper. Best regards and God bless you for all your good work.

One more suggestion
I’d like to congratulate you on the rapid progress and development of your esteemed newspaper. The new look gives us the impression that it is really an international newspaper.
As an earnest reader of the Yemen Times, I have one suggestion which is to make a separate page for the sports news and in that way you will cover all the sides of our life. Once more, congratulations and keep on developing our lovely Yemen Times.

Looking for Dr. Bashir
I am a Pakistani businessman who is requesting information on a Pakistani named Dr Bashir, who has been in Sanaa for the last 20 years.
His family is very worried about him and would like to talk with him as his family could not contact him for the last 10 years.
His children Imran, Nazia, Fouzia, Safia are missing him very much. Could you help in this? His previous phone number was 00967-1-267810. The last information we have is that he worked in Taiz street.
Whoever gives any information about him will be much appreciated. Please contact me at +92-300-9444789.

About Nadia Muhsen
I’d like to wish you all at the Yemeni Times a ‘Happy 11th Birthday’ and may you continue to write interesting items not only to your local reader in the Yemen but for English speaking people to learn all about Yemen too.
A few years back you wrote an interesting article on ‘Naida Muhsen’ and I was interested to know if you were thinking of doing a followup to let us have an update on the saga. I mean if you are able to get permission from Nadia’s husband that is? Because I’d love to read about Nadia and her children how they’re doing and if Nadia is allowed to phone her Mother and Zana, as she seemed to be cut off from them from what I gathered in your interview! What a shame! I’m sure Nadia’s mother and Zana wonder how she is doing & perhaps she can even say if she has seen Zana’s son, as she hasn’t seen him in about 16 years. I wonder if he remembers his mother? Perhaps Zana’s ex-in-law’s will give permission for Zana’s son to write to his mother. It would be interesting!
