Raymond J. de Souza: 50 years after Idi Amin expelled 'Uganda Asians,' they prosper happily
NATIONALPOST.COM -- [ISMAILI DIGEST ED: For those unfamiliar, The National/Financial Post is what might be called Canada's "Wall Street Journal."] ARTICLE: The Uganda expulsion created a crisis. Who would take in the 60,000? Most ended up in Britain, but some 6,000 resettled in Canada, many of whom were Ismaili Muslims. Their head, the Aga Khan, personally appealed to his friend, then-Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau. It was the largest settlement of non-European refugees until that point in Canadian history. Despite hardships faced, the Indian immigrants have contributed mightily to the fields of education, science, entrepreneurship, civic engagement and religion in the UK and Canada. For example, across the Atlantic, the frontrunner to be the next Conservative Prime Minister of the UK is Rishi Sunak. His grandparents left India for East Africa and then moved to Britain in the ...

Think of Ismaili Digest as the Front Page of all the best Ismaili websites! Ismaili Digest automatically and continuously brings together all new articles, photos, videos, etc. from Ismaili websites -- like The Ismaili, Simerg, IIS, NanoWisdoms, AKDN, Ismailimail, etc. -- so you can see them all at once. Direct links to over 15,000 web-pages from the best Ismaili websites already available. Ismaili Digest saves you (and those who are not tech savvy, such as seniors) the effort of having to visit them one by one to keep up to date, or have your inbox cluttered with emails from each of them when they publish new content. In a busy world, our sense of belonging to our community sometimes tends to wither and fade (particularly for isolated Jamati members). We hope Ismaili Digest's simplicity and comprehensiveness will help you feel connected as well as feel the local and global pulse of the community. Like many other non-commercial, public-service thematic website aggregators, Ismaili Digest is just a thematic aggregator. We publish short 50-60 word digests of all their content and provide direct links to their original pages saving you time, extra page loads and clicks. For the website publishers, direct links ensure they'll get the maximum number of potential visitors reaching their content so their hard work gets the maximum exposure. Also featured are other important articles, research and opinions relevant to the community's well being, intellectual growth, best practises and administration. And all served with a drop of humour as well, because "we are a community that welcomes the smile!" Ismaili Digest is not associated with any private Ismaili website, whether aggregated by Ismaili Digest or not. All websites Ismaili Digest aggregates are independent websites run by their individual owners and we are not responsible for content they publish. |
