Letter from The President: Those fake documents

Countrymen and women, loyalists and opponents
Hardly a day passes these days without one reading stories in the newspapers about people using fake certificates or some other documents to either enter an educational institution or gain employment or even acquire a visa. The latest report I read had it that a certain 23-year-old wanabe outsmarted the authorities at the Wa Government Hospital by posing as one of the few doctors who prefer to feed on our dry pastures here instead of traveling abroad to, well, you know it, seek greener pastures.

The managers of the Wa Hospital were taken in by the young imposter?s show of ?sincerity? and ?patriotism? and they offered him accommodation in a hotel. As soon as he checked into his hotel room, the wanabe started eating and drinking ?by heart?, with bill debited to the account of the hospital. The young man even had the temerity to tell a second-hand cloth dealer from whom he had bought some items, to go the hospital to collect his money. He was such a foolish, unimaginative, dim witted imposter. The good news is that he has been arrested and is now doing time in some jail somewhere.
