Yemen's Wake Up Call

Who really doesn't need a Wake up call!



Basically, I was lucky to witness the first seed of the coming Yemen's “Wake Up Call”; an initiative, scheduled to be launched on the 21st of Feb. ; a day that coincides with the (give me a break!) presidential election in Yemen. And I'm more than happy to blog about it today.
