@BorderCrim With many thanks to @emm_achiri and @oguzh_ f joint work in n cyprus, to @DarrianTraynor for photos and @HishamRifaei and @Ayman_makarem for creative collaboration and @mikisosnowski for academic collaboration.

@BorderCrim The dynamics of a #defactostate and the dynamics of (forced) #migration are typically described as separate things. But #Northerncyprus shows they are closely interconnected. This is part 1 of a 3-part story.

Now this is something you can write a poem about.

Sri Lanka’s first woman prime minister (not from dynastic politics that is).

A victory to working, voting women in Sri Lanka.

Finally received the hard copy of the new book #RoutledgeHandbookofContemporarySriLanka coedited @knr21_cam published @tandfnewsroom as a good reference guide for #SriLanka with a bunch of new authors and insight. Despite all challenges we feel hope for the potential.
