Marshall Islands – Permanent Non Immigrants

About a third of the Marshallese have left their homes in the Marshall Islands.  Many of them have moved to various parts of the United States of America.  Here in America, they do not need a work visa to gain lawful employment.  They are legally allowed to live and work here without a visa or becoming a citizen.  Some people refer to the Marshallese living here as permanent Non Immigrants.

Ethiopia – It’s 2012 in 2019

The Ethiopian Calendar is different from the Gregorian Calendar and the latter is what most of the world goes by.   The Ethiopian Calendar has thirteen months in a year, while the Gregorian one has twelve months.   Currently, the year in Ethiopia is 2012.   The following links may be helpful in shedding more light on this.

Brazil – Home of the most “Uncontacted People”

I really don’t know the reason why. However, whenever I hear about an uncontacted group of people living in the forested area, my mind is always blown.  There are so many questions that run through my mind about them. Nevertheless, this is not about me. It is about Brazil, and in this country’s forested areas, there are about 100 tribes or groups of people living there.  Brazilian National Indian Foundation is responsible for their care from the outside world.    Note https://www.survivalinternational.org/tribes/uncontacted-brazil https://riotimesonline.com/brazil-news/rio-politics/brazils-funai-calls-army-to-help-protect-isolated-indigenous-tribes/
