Chiang Rai and poor hill tribes, where people until recently had no rights, no citizenship, no ID! Only Thaksin Shinawatra gave them access to jobs, education and medical care:

India
February 15-March 1, 2016

I basically disappeared in Southern Kerala, India, and began my slow recovery process. While still working, of course.

Apology to my followers! For more than half a year my travel blog was not updated.
After being poisoned in Surabaya, Indonesia, almost 2 years ago (both physically and mentally), my health was broken to pieces. Of course the accumulated stress and exhaustion from war and conflict zones did not help. Most likely I came very close to absolute collapse, perhaps death. I realized it last year, working in Kazakhstan, in the middle of cold bitter winter. I was supposed to fly next day from Astana to Moscow, and from there to Russian Far East - to Vladivostok. But suddenly I could hardly move! I cancelled all my plans, and flew through Tashkent, Uzbekistan, to Bangkok, beginning my struggle for survival.

From now on, I will be updating this blog regularly.

But also let me do here a short retrospect, a medley of what took place since the last update:

Despite my "collapse", I never really gave up. I continued working in countless war and conflict zones, from Lebanon to Iraq, Kyrgyzstan, horrid refugee camps at Kos in Greece and Calais in France.

I went to Ecuador to give support to our Revolution, to Brazilian Amazonian jungle to speak to people about great changes implemented under the PT government, to ruined post-coup Paraguay.  In Cambodia, Vietnam and Laos I also revisited atrocities committed during the Vietnam War by the West. I worked in Iran.

I also circled the world, giving speeches and revolutionary as well as philosophical talks. Just to mention the most important ones, I was asked to speak right after the President of Iran in Teheran. I gave talks at China Academy of Social Sciences (right hand of the Communist Party of China) in Beijing, at Moscow Municipality in Russia, at Beihang University in Beijing. Finally, I was asked to give a speech at the Chamber of Deputies at the Italian Parliament, where I delivered accusatory discourse, declaring that the entire European continent is built on loot and corpses of colonized people all over the world.

This is just a brief summary of my journeys in the last few months.


Thank you all for your patience and moral support!
