Nark Neighbours Part 2 Watch the first part of the video if you haven't watched it yet I'm going to go deeper into some sections of the first part of the video I hope you are all doing well and feeling good I hope that you have been enjoying my recent videos Please like and subscribe Share your thoughts in the comments Subscribe if you haven't subscribed yet And please share the videos with other people who you believe it may help Nark Neighbours seem to base their existence of your acknowledgement or perception of them They have to be seen and heard at all times Just to feel like they exist They have to be noticed They see you as being superior to them in some way They may believe that you have a better home or car They make more money than they do You may have a better lifestyle They could be envious of your family and what they have This has created their motive to target you and cause disruption This is what drives them to do the things that they do You may have talked to them just a few times In some cases, you may never have talked to them You may not even know who they are And yet they believe that they know so much about you They may know things about your family They may know things about the places you go to And what time you go there They will even drop a hint about this If you have a conversation Or they will leave an object somewhere where you might see it Just to let you know that they know where you are going Or what you are going to be doing It makes them feel in control of you Narcissists have to dominate the environment It distracts them from how helpless and worthless they really feel They use all of these power and control tactics Abusive manipulation as a way of regulating their emotions They believe it is beneficial to their mental health and emotional stability It's like therapy to them And it might provide temporary relief from all of the negative feelings They would otherwise have to endure But that's only for a limited time Soon enough, they will go back to feeling how they usually feel All of the abuse and manipulative tactics are used as a distraction A coping mechanism A defence mechanism And an adaptation to the hostile environment they experienced in childhood They have to distract themselves They cannot be alone with their own thoughts, it's too painful for them They have an inner critic that constantly tells them how useless, worthless and insignificant they are Engaging in these types of behaviours makes them feel powerful and in control It makes them feel as though they are worth something The dark neighbour usually has nothing of any value or significance going on in their lives But then they find an opportunity to stalk and study someone It makes them feel special As though they actually have something to offer, something to do It takes the focus off their otherwise boring and miserable lives It provides them with narcissistic supply and a mild sense of excitement for a limited time It gives them a sense of power and control It validates their existence and gives purpose to their lives You may want nothing to do with them But in their minds, they have created this fantasy and illusion of you They have been studying you and believe that they know you so well In their minds, you are now a significant part of their life Because of this, they feel comfortable stalking you and watching everything you are doing They feel as though they are entitled to your time and energy Even though you want nothing to do with them Narcissists are self-absorbed, they have a sense of entitlement It doesn't matter what you want or don't want This is why many narcissists are rapists, child molesters and murderers In these cases, they really believe that they are entitled to your body Your child's body and even own the rights to your life It's just something they can take as they please Because you are an extension of them You are a part of them You are an object A tool used to serve them and meet their sick needs At the same time, they also claim to hate you so much They hate everything you do They hate everything you stand for, everything you believe in Yet they keep checking in on what you are doing This is a clear identification of narcissism Imagine you drink a glass of milk and have an allergic reaction You realise that you are lactose intolerant You are not going to drink that milk again Imagine there is a TV show or movie on TV that you do not like You are going to change the TV channel You are not going to continue watching it Anything you consume which you then realise isn't good for you Or realise you don't like it You are not going to continue consuming it This is where we realise how different we are from these people Because even though knock neighbours claim to hate a person And profess that they are no good for them They will still continue to engage with them in conversation Or watch them from afar, stalk them Which means that they are conflicting with their own beliefs They have cognitive dissonance This is why you should never take them seriously Or trust anything they say Their opinions are invalid and not credible Because the very things that they claim are so bad Or they claim to hate Are the very things that they spend most of their time around This is bordering on psychotic behaviour If we put ourselves in their shoes And we see ourselves as these bad people who are no good for them We are not going to continue to engage or stalk and watch Because we are functional and logical people The knock neighbours actions are not based on anything functional or logical They are based on their own weak and fragile emotions Everything they do or say is emotionally based And their emotions are like their weakest link Because their emotional development remains at that of a child Yet everything they do or say is based on these emotions It's a formula for chaos and drama And this is why nothing ever gets resolved You can't resolve anything when you have weak fragile emotions Resolution requires both parties to be mature, logical and understanding Since they don't have the emotional capabilities to have a resolution It never ends It becomes an obsession to them An addiction They can't let it go because they don't know how They never learned how to resolve anything So it becomes an endless fight They will stalk and watch you for years as long as they are alive They continue to go back to the very person that they claim to hate Which only gives them more ammunition to hate you And it feeds their obsession even more It leaves them stuck in this endless cycle of trying to destroy you and ruin your life Every time they try to forget about you and move on with their lives There is always something triggering in their minds Telling them to check in on what you are doing They are always wondering what they might be missing And this is why they can never leave you alone Many narc neighbors are even involved in criminal operations I have heard stories where a victim's child went to spend time with a narc neighbors child in their home The child found a room in the narc neighbors home Full of monitors which displayed every room in her house The victim later noticed through the window That the narc neighbor was sitting on a chair in that room Watching all of those monitors Another situation A victim's 5 year old daughter was targeted by electronic weapons The victim entered her daughter's room one night to find her masturbating Although she was confident that her daughter had not seen or heard anything sexual on TV or in school There really is no law that these people won't go to They are sick Twisted people Who engage in all kinds of evil behaviors With everything we know we can help to think that they are demonically possessed And yet everything we know about them is only the tip of the iceberg There is so much we don't know They claim that they do not like or support you in any way Yet they are so obsessed with you and can stalk you for years There is clearly something very wrong with them Because normal and mostly healthy people would never operate in that way If you hate the TV show, you don't keep watching it again and again These individuals claim to hate you Yet they can't leave you alone This is psychotic behavior No normal, emotionally healthy person would ever see someone to be so significant in their lives That they have to stalk and watch them every day Especially when the person wants nothing to do with them Normal, emotionally healthy people will understand early on And then leave you alone They will not keep coming back to someone they claim to hate so much Narc neighbors cannot take rejection They have to reject you If you make it clear that you want nothing to do with them They can't just leave you alone It causes a narcissistic injury They become completely obsessed with you and cannot leave you alone It becomes an addiction to them like a cocaine addict Staring at a line of cocaine Knowing all too well that it's not going to do them any good They can't help but to snort that line Just like the narc neighbor They know that you conflict with each other They know that you are no good for them Yet they will still consume you They are entertaining these dysfunctional thoughts And then acting on their weak, unstable emotions Every time they sneak around and watch what you are doing It excites them It releases the dopamine neurotransmitter within their brains It's all based on their weak, unstable emotions Negative emotions such as hate, anger, envy and jealousy These are emotions you should never act on Nothing good can ever come out of acting on these negative emotions Stalking has become a global issue I think this is caused during their childhood Where they felt neglected by their parents, friends or someone else in their environment They were never taught how to deal with rejection And they clearly failed to figure it out on their own Every time they are rejected They can't just let it go It takes them back to that traumatic event of rejection Or neglect that they experienced as children Now when they experience rejection or it causes a narcissistic injury They become obsessed and they can't leave you alone They have to stalk you and watch everything you are doing They were also never taught about boundaries when they were children Their boundaries were never respected So now they don't respect yours Their inner critic makes it impossible for them to ever truly feel respected by anyone So how could they ever respect you? You cannot truly respect someone else Until you learn to respect yourself And I think this fact shows how little respect they have for themselves In everything they do They might feel guilty at first But the more they do it The more it desensitizes their guilt But it's not as easy to desensitize shame Shame is always there And although they spend their lives doing everything they can to avoid shame It continues to grow within them It continues to affect every aspect of their lives It's like these people are voluntarily engaging in behavior Which gradually creates a psychopathic personality disorder The more they do it The more normal it becomes to them They have basically created their own psychopath training program For themselves


Welcome to Crossroads in Learning. I am your host, Keisha King. I'm so excited that you are joining us today. I have two wonderful guests who are near and dear to my heart. They are fellow teachers. That's right, two wonderful teachers who were recently honored because of their unique style of teaching in the classroom. As I know personally, and many of you know that it takes a special person to be a teacher. You have to really, really love what you're doing for a lot of reasons. But today, we are honoring two people who not only love what they're doing, but they found innovative ways to make sure our children learn what they need to learn in a very fun and exciting way. So much so that this year at the 2020 Grammy Awards, one of our teachers was being honored. So please welcome with me two wonderful guests, Isabella Barrett and Inger Stonehill, two teachers from Farrington High School. Aloha, ladies. Aloha. Welcome to Crossroads in Learning. I am so excited to have you on and to discuss the wonderful honor that you received for your classroom teaching techniques. I'll start with you, Isabella. Please tell us, what subject do you teach and where and about how many students do you have? Well, I teach ninth grade English at Farrington High School of all classes combined. I have about 70 kids. 70 students. Wonderful. Now, how long have you been teaching? This is my 10th year teaching. Congratulations. You made double digits. Yes. Wonderful. Inger, how long have you been teaching? Where do you teach and how many students do you have? Well, I am a Sped teacher in inclusion, and I help out with the ninth grade English. And I've been teaching for 15 years at Farrington High School. Wonderful. All at Farrington. All at Farrington. All right. So remind me, what is the mascot for Farrington? The mascot, the governors. The governors. Go governors. Woo-hoo. Awesome. OK, so we have two very well-tenured teachers, 10 years and 15 years, a mighty long time. Isabella, tell me, what made you get into this career field? Quite honestly, I was looking for, because originally, I'm a philosophy theology major, and I needed to fill my credits for graduation. And one day, I was driving by the education department, and I thought, I think that would be a good fit. So I went in, looked into it, and fell in love with it, and just stayed with it ever since. That's wonderful. So then, might I ask you, since you were once a philosophy and theology major, what is your philosophy of teaching? Very briefly. Call to care. I believe that's the foundation of my philosophy in education, meeting kids according to their needs. I love that. That's a very unique choice of words, call to care. And I say that because typically, in a theological sense, when a person is called, we are talking about call to the ministry or call to the mission field. And I would say that probably the classroom is your own mission field. Is that about right? Absolutely. Absolutely. That's a beautiful thing. I think you have to be called to this profession. Absolutely. I always say that for me, it's not a mere vocation. If you look at it as just a job, probably won't last long. I agree. I agree. So Inger, I'm going to turn those same questions over to you. What made you choose education as your focal point for your career, especially special education? Well, this is really my second career. I was in hotel restaurant management. And then as I got older and I was a stay-at-home mom, I kind of looked to my father. He was a professor at a college. And I thought, you know, that might work. And I really did like special education because it is so individualized. And you know, you can be in a classroom of five, 10, or you can be an inclusion. So I felt like that would suit me best because it's flexible. I understand. Now, what is your philosophy of teaching Inger? Well, I always say, I feel like teaching is like how you garden. You plant a seed. And you plant a seed within these kids. And then, you know, you keep watering it. You keep watering it. You keep giving it food and water. And then they will bloom. And here at Farrington, one of our mottos is go forth to serve. So in 15 years, some of my first class of kids, they're now turning 30. So I think they're doing good. That's awesome. You know, when you're in this field and in this profession, you simply think about the students that you have before you. You give them all. You're all. But then you forget that they continue to grow. And they're ready to graduate.  That has to be an incredible feeling to know that you've helped them blossom following your ideal into young adults. That's a wonderful thing. You know, as we all know with our public school proud model here in Hawaii, we take great pride in our public school education. We put forth a lot of effort. And as an inclusion classroom, which means that students who are typically developing as well as exceptional learners who are in special education, we combine them in one classroom to ensure that all students are getting the best possible education. And we differentiate instruction to make sure that happens. Bella, we want to talk to you about how you differentiate instruction using music. Will you please share with us a little bit of how this idea came about? Well, I started using music since the beginning of my career, actually. And I was inspired by one of my college professors. He would use music to introduce us to the central idea of whatever text we were looking at. And I just remember how it really struck an accord with me. And so one day when I was teaching and the kids were just, we don't want to read this text. We don't want to read Romeo and Juliet or whatever the text may have been. And so I decided to find music that they liked. So I did a survey to figure out what music they was, genres of music that they liked to hear. And then once I found what was really dear to them, I started doing a bunch of research on different songs that would relate to whatever text that we were going to learn that week. And I use it as a hook. And so the music, what it does is it raises the level of rigor because it raises the level of engagement that the student shows with text. And that's one of the key points from our school district leaders is that they want increased rigor for all students, not just your highest functioning students, but even our special ed students. You can increase the rigor and make sure that they are still capable of attaining whatever it is we want them to learn. So Inger, what is your part in all of this? What role do you play as an inclusion special education teacher in a classroom that sounds very innovative? Well, I, you know, I am there to service the special ed students in the classroom, but I service everybody. And I just, I've worked with Bella for three years and I also enjoy music. And when I saw that by using the music, it's like a great equalizer. And that's what I'm there for too, to have everything be equitable and have everybody have access to the rigor, to the curriculum and music does that. And so I've always have seen it in action that music and the kids can relate to it, whether it's hip hop or even we've had country music. We had Frank Sinatra. We've had many different music genres and all the kids can relate to that and then increase their learning. Okay, sounds good. I like the idea of this. In fact, when I was working in grad school, I had to write a thesis paper simply stating the connection between music movement and the brain and how it does help our students grasp information. I know that if I asked either of you to name the lyrics of any of your favorite songs from childhood, you could probably follow the song from beginning, middle and end, which is essentially all we're asking our students to be able to do in an English class. So before we get into talking about which songs you used and whether or not you even knew the songs from the beginning, I would love to know what that survey was like for your students, Isabella, when you asked them to complete a survey about what genre of music they liked, what were their responses like? Did they have any idea of what you were going to do? I think many of them thought that I was just have a playlist music playing behind them as they worked. I don't think they realized that it was going to become a part of the curriculum, but they really enjoy it. They absolutely love it. I still have kids from previous years that will come by and if they notice lyrics posted, they're like, oh, yes, studying today. And sometimes they'll sit and they'll have a conversation with current students about their perspective on the text. So it's pretty neat. I think that's interesting too, because another thing that the DOE Department of Education is enforcing for many of our schools is collaborative talk or collaborative communication. And as Inger has stated, there is nothing more uniting than music. I think that many of us can connect and relate to one another based upon music that we listen to, even if it's a different genre of music than we typically enjoy. I know for many years I've learned to embrace other types of music. And what I found here in Hawaii is that music seems to be universal. This is the only place I've come to where I've heard music that sounds Jamaican, but it's Hawaiian and they mix it. And then they take country songs and soul songs and they mix it in R&B old school and mix it with new school, with a Hawaiian singer with a Chinese accent. So there's a lot that's going on right here in Hawaii with our music. We're going to talk when we're about to take a break and when we come back from our break, we're going to talk for just a little bit more about what's happening in your classroom. And then I wanna learn how it became recognized by the Grammys of all places in the world. Music is music everywhere, but there's nothing higher than the Grammy Awards. So we're gonna talk about that, the 2020 Grammys and you guys representing Hawaii and the Samoas. I wanna touch on that. I got, yeah, I found out. I've got a super picture I wanna share too about that. So you've been- And I'm actually a 95 grad at Barrington. Is that right? So you're teaching at the high school you graduated from. What a wonderful thing. That's something else that's very unique to Hawaii. We love that. And we are, as Inger stated, we are growing our own, which is the goal right now. That's how you keep a teacher here in Hawaii.  So you've been watching Crossroads and learning with me, your host Keisha King. We're gonna take a one minute break and be right back after this.

Be there, Aloha. Welcome back, you're watching Crossroads and learning with me, your host, Keisha King and two wonderful guests. One who was recently honored at the 2020 Grammys. Take a look at Isabella Barrett and her significant other, I believe her husband, as they were attending the 2020 Grammys this year, full on attire, Samoan attire, representing Hawaii and Farrington High School. Isabella and Inger both welcome back. Thank you. We wanna talk about the attire. I wanna say, first of all, girl, you looked good. Thank you, thank you. You're welcome. So now what is the significance of what you wore? Because you know, that is the red carpet question. Who are you wearing? Right? Yeah, actually, we got our ensemble from the Pacifica boutique in Waianae and they have their items shipped in from Samoa. So that's where I got it from. So they have a whole bunch of different things to choose from, but what we were wearing is the formal wear that Samoans will wear to like a wedding or any special event. My husband is Jamaican. Okay. And he had, and people were asking him, why would he decide to wear the traditional male attire, the Iefai Ganga and the Ula Fale, the lei that he had on. And he was saying that, you know, as an African American Jamaican, I see a lot of Polynesian kids that would adapt our style, our culture to their own personal style. And so he said he wanted to give them a shout out about their culture and how much it means to our family and that he wanted to, you know, adapt that into his own personal style at the Grammys. I think that's beautiful.  And I think that as many, there are several African Americans who talk about representation and how important it is. So I think it's wonderful that he took a moment to represent your culture and how important it is to you all as a family unit. So thank you to him and to you for doing that and representing the Samoan culture in that way. And free shout out to that store that provided you. Give them, mention that name one more time. Le Pasifika Boutique in Waianae and the owner. He's a math teacher at Waianae High School. Teachers are running this, okay? Awesome, way to go. Well, that's a wonderful thing. So now here you are at the 2020 Grammys. Now I should mention you have four children of your own, right? Five. I don't wanna leave out the baby, okay? Five children. What do they think about mom and dad now going to the Grammys? Was there anyone that they told you, say hi, look for this person? Oh yeah, Demi Lovato, Billie Eilish for sure hands down during her performance. I tried to like base time my kids because they're such huge fans. And I was like, oh man, I hope I don't get into trouble. We ended up turning it off because they were just too loud. I said, you're too loud. I can't have you on there, but yeah. That's amazing. That's a wonderful for a school family and your personal family to experience. Now, why is it that you were recognized and how did that come to be in two minutes or less? Let us know how that happened. Well, actually Inger told me about the, she told me about it a couple of years ago and I kinda ignored it. I was like, oh, but then I got an email again asking if I would consider applying and I did. Okay, well, shout out to you, Inger. Thank you. Yeah. And so Inger, you found out about this just basic research? Well, I just went, when I first started with her three years ago, I'm like, oh, she uses music. It's so great.  So I told her three years ago and then she didn't do it then, but then she perfected it more and we used it more and more. And so finally this year, she did and was so excited to, was so excited that she applied and that she won. Cause that's across the nation. Yes, yes, I know. And I wanna get the title of this correct. If you don't mind, excuse me. This is the Jane Hortner Education Award Program. And so with this program, you were able to receive a $3,000 honorarium, a $1,000 grant awarded to your school, two tickets to the 62nd Grammy Awards in Los Angeles, California, plus travel and accommodations, lucky you. And then of course you'll be, and the after party. Oh my.   So now when I was vetting this story, I heard from a very familiar artist, Carmen, also a Grammy Award winner. Tell us what were his thoughts about what you do in your classroom? Well, I didn't talk to him. So I have no idea. Oh, well I'll tell you what he said. Oh, he said something. Yeah, he was awesome. He spoke very highly. He stated that it is so important that we keep the arts in our school and that we utilize music in the classroom and the fact that you're doing it speaks volumes of your character and your love for teaching and for your students. So there you go. Oh, that is so cool. Thank you. I didn't know. Yeah. Love, common. Right, who doesn't? He's amazing, right? And his original name was Carmen Sence. I think he has loads of it. But now he has another artist that was very significant at this year's award ceremony and that is Demi Lovato. Now tell us, what do you know about her? What are your thoughts? And were you looking forward to actually seeing her there? Oh, yeah. I mean, her performance was just amazing. I mean, she brought me to tears. It was, she was flawless and she looked absolutely beautiful. But most importantly, it's the message that she was singing with her song. And that's something that, cause she's been talking, I mean, one of the lines that's repeated over and over, does anybody, can anybody hear me? Just hearing the voices of other people and what they're going through has been a huge theme in the 10 years that I've been teaching and music is a great way of helping students expand their circle of friendship, expand their point of view. It gives them the tools to learn how to listen to other people when they're speaking and to be okay with differences. You know, I think that's key for all people in general, but especially our high school students, as I'm aware, you all have faced some very unique challenges and tragedies at Farrington High School. So being a listener and paying attention to people who need to be heard would make a huge difference. And for those of our viewers who aren't aware, you know, Farrington High School as many high schools in the nation have lost students due to suicide recently, whether it's from bullying or just from basic survival needs, we're losing our children. And so to have that song asked over and over again, is anybody listening? I would say yes, that there are at least two teachers at Farrington and probably several more in that school and throughout the country who are there to listen. So if you or someone you know needs someone to talk to, go to a trusted teacher, they are available no matter how busy we may seem. We'd rather listen to you than attend any service that is an end of life celebration, which you all have recently done. So we thank you so much for your dedication and commitment in that regard. You're doing a wonderful work for a wonderful, in a wonderful way, utilizing music. So do your students have a genre of music that you absolutely had no idea about, but now you love? And it looks like we may have lost anger. So I'll just keep this conversation between Isabella and I and we can, yeah, there we go. So Isabella, Isabella. I've been the other way around, yeah. Okay, tell me about that. Because when I met them, the only thing that they would listen to was R&B and hip-hop and rap, that's it. And so it was quite the challenge to get them interested in other genre of music because my whole goal was to get them to see how genre represents different cultures. And when you open yourself up to other types of music, you're really opening yourself up to different types of people. And so what I did is I paired Eminem with Johnny Cash. Oh. And the Goo Goo Dolls. And the Goo Goo Dolls. And the Goo Goo Dolls. Yeah. Well, now that is very different. So let's go over this for those who might not know. We have Eminem, who is a rapper, but he's a white rapper, right? One of very few. Then you have Johnny Cash, who is an amazing country singer, but a rebel in his own way. And then the Goo Goo Dolls, I don't even know how to describe them. Alternative. Alternative. There you go. Yes, yes. So you meshed them together. Yes, I did. Because we were just trying to, because one of the things that we do in class is to, I create a space for them to discover their identity and their purpose in life. And so the first thing we talk about is their names. So Goo Goo Dolls, they have a song called Name. Johnny Cash has a song called A Boy Named Sue. And Eminem has, you know, my name is. And what I did, what the kids did is they found commonalities between the three of the songs and the importance of the name. That's exactly what a teacher is supposed to do. Open their eyes to new possibilities, to new ways of thinking, and to help them become critical thinkers. I want to congratulate you, Isabella, for what you have done thus far in your classroom in 10 years of teaching. I think it's remarkable and groundbreaking and much like what Common said, you need teachers who are going to reach beyond themselves and really dig deep into what our students need because they are our future.  So thank you for reaching beyond where you are. And thank you. Welcome back, Inger. Thank you too. Thank you for being a special education teacher in the classroom, in an inclusion classroom, exactly where we need you. I want to thank you both for coming on Crossroads and Learning. Keep doing what you're doing to educate the future. And thank you all, my viewers, for watching. As always, we'll see you next time at Crossroads and Learning. Aloha.

The southwest region of Cameroon is one of the country's most popular and oldest cities. So it's over 90,000 residents. This is the city of Friendship. Created in 1858, its black sandy beaches are a rare attraction to tourists. As it is characteristic of most coastal cities, Limber has her own fair share of natural and man-made hazards. The most critical is the shortage of portable water. Constant flooding and sporadic ocean overflows regularly pollute the few streams and rivers that are the principal source of water for many city dwellers. The health consequences are evident. Water-borne diseases like cholera are all too frequent. We started receiving cholera cases here in the hospital from the 7th of January 2022. Majority of the cases at that time were coming from the West Coast area, the Buncha Itina. Gradually, we started having sporadic cases in Limber until between the 17th to the 22nd of March when we had the search of cholera cases in Limber, with the numbers moving from 15, 30, 50 to 100 within a couple of days. Total number of cases, we have 1,287 patients. So we had the total of about 15 deaths in the course of this epidemic as of now. I think there were days that we could receive over 100, 120 patients per day who were coming since it was the cholera treatment center. Among these patients, more than 60, 70 percent of them were severe cases. Market no-gets toilet. Experts have attributed the water shortage in Limber and its environs to uncontrollable cases. We have a lot of people who are suffering from cholera, and we have a lot of people who are suffering from cholera, and we have a lot of people who are suffering from cholera. Experts have attributed the water shortage in Limber and its environs to uncontrolled human activities and resultant environmental degradation. Every 10 days, we do an alert, and in the alerts, we identify the potential climate risks that we may have around the country or in the different agro-ecological zones of the country. In the health sector, we have a risk of various diseases emerging, including cholera, which you may experience, and you realize that at the beginning of this year, the focus that we made in March clearly indicated that during that period, we'll have risk of cholera in the coastline of Cabrón. Thanks to the early warning by officials of the National Observatory on climate change, key stakeholders were able to anticipate the cholera outbreak that hit the country in October 2021. When we noticed there were cases of cholera, we invited the Minister of Health, the public health personnel, to see what was the exact situation, organize a series of actions. The first one to adopt protocol treatment was when people, medical doctors themselves, agreed on the protocol. The judicious use of this information helped the authorities and population in containing the epidemic that had the potential of going completely out of hand. The personnel, including the doctors, the nurses, the washed team who were in charge of hygiene and sanitation and prevention of infection spread within the CTC, we had to be on our toes almost all the times. Because each time that the patient arrived, they were either vomiting or they are making water stones so frequently, both of them are severely dehydrated and severely dehydrated means an emergency. So we had to respond very immediately. The contribution of non-state stakeholders in the fight against cholera has been significant. Emergency response strategies came from local authorities and development partners. We engaged about 200 volunteers on ground to make sure that this educates the community on basic hygienic methods or how to handle their water, how to treat their water because most of the cases we have at the cholera treatment center in Bota Limbe, most of the cases are traced to be of water borne. So we engaged in tackling these communities to educate and even treat some of the boreholes or wells or give them aquatabs to make sure that these community users should also engage with us. The Red Cross to fight the cholera epidemic. Together, let's stop cholera. So what we did at that point for the team that we had already prepared on ground is the emergency response team. We deployed the HR, our human resources, a lot of technical persons to immediately move to this location. First of all, to identify community volunteers, identify community health workers who will be responsible for carrying out community health sensitization, ensuring that the population is fully aware of the situation, what is happening, and also to equip them on preventive measures that they need to put in place while we continue to solicit for more funds to see how we could respond. The people of Limbe and other towns of the southwest region, like Bouya, are gradually joining the fight against cholera, especially with the resurgence. We are on the ground after the cholera pandemic, which has been going on and mainly at May 16, which is the first time we have detected it. We wanted to touch on the finger, the reality, and the real cause of this situation that has been going on for a long time. We went to the health center. They gave us the focus on the situation, but they also told us why the situation has been going on for a long time. That is why we came to the source of water. We have seen how this source of water, which I think has been damaged, is not totally safe because there are activities, there are salities everywhere. The youth of Salibritie must be improved. There is racism. Overall, cleanliness and protection of water sources from all sorts of contamination are critical in the effort to win the fight against cholera. To present cholera, we need to drink clean water. We have to wash our hands. We need to use clean water to cook. We need to carry water from the police chief about dirty water and dirty environment. Water comes up for rent. We take care, we keep drinking. We do not want to go to take care of water. That kind of water is not fine for people to drink. You have to take care of yourself, wash your hands before eating and keep your environment clean. The government has to do more. We have to create more taps, more boreholes so that people have to get clean water to drink and eradicate cholera that is disturbing the service at this moment. Early warning systems in place to deal with such sudden or slow-setting disasters are already leading the way. We make a summary that we send to community radius that are in partnership with the National Observatory but there are quite a few of them and CRTB as well receives this information and usually they announce it at the beginning of when we publish and validate them which we want to take this opportunity to appreciate the support we have been receiving from the Director General of CRTB because every time the alerts, even through CRTB some of the other private TV stations receive our information but an inventory of the local radios that we have in Cameroon shows that we have almost close to 240 and if we are working with just 40 you realize that we still need to cover 200. However, forecasts which provide greater precision and exactitude about the sport and are would be more beneficial. This requires the necessary means, the necessary materials, the necessary technology which should be put in place to be able to solve this problem of race that are identified but not the things are only done when the race are so caught. Yes, and I think it can only be our play. This is what the once-buzzling beaches of Limbe look like today. The government has suspended all activities in the hope of avoiding any further spread of this highly contagious disease. We are going to eat now, particularly those coastal areas. They eat themselves in the sun, the back of the sun. It is a remedy. And in such environment you can be sure that it becomes a vicious disease. This is water, yet for people of Limbe yearned for portable water.
