Editor,

As the year draws to a close,  please allow me to wish, through your esteemed newspaper,  all Rwandans and foreigners, particularly all my fellow Indians living in Rwanda, a very Happy and Prosperous New Year 2016!

Each year has its own share of ups and downs. The year about to pass into oblivion was no different.

But please allow me to share with your readers the words of King George VI when he said:

"And I said to the man at the gate of the year

Give me a light that I might walk into the unknown.

And the man said to me

Go into the darkness and

Put your hand in the hand of God.

That shall be to you more than light

And safer than a known way.”

May the Good Lord shower blessings on this great nation in the New Year!
