Mahmood over in Mahmood's Den is cracking on Bahrain for its 2 million Dollar pledge for the Indian Ocean disaster. Word is the 2 mill might be mistaken for relief 'on the cheap'. Another part of the story according to M:
- the annual bonus for Bahraini govt ministers is over US$250 thousand dollars
- national daily income from Oil alone is over $6 million dollars
- South Asian people are the bulk of Bahrain's workforce
- the country's main relief agency waits for govt approval before it can start any relief effort
- Bahraini parliament members might have their 'hands full' dealing with their own retirement & health insurance
... picky picky picky.
