ThreE cUp's of teA




Hey there? are u ok? I want to tell about a novel. I read this novel a year ago. before I would ask you, if you are one who likes adventure? This question is still related with the contents of the novel. if you include one of those particularly interested with adventure climb the mountain, there is nothing wrong if you read a novel with titled "5 cm", but now, I'm not to tell you the contents of the novel, i'll tell you about climbing the mountain K2 pakistan" in the country pakistan. are u ready? please sit down a well and read be careful ok!
Begins with the failure to conquer the peak of K2 (the world's highest peak in the Himalayas) which then brings him to an isolated community at the foot of the mountain rock was covered with perennial ice, which never existed in any previous map. Master quoted in Kungfu Panda Ooghway there are no accidents! 100% correct, accidents experienced by Mortenson is not a coincidence, but it is a starting point a new round of life. After trying to return to base camp in a very poor condition and 15kg weight loss during ascent, he arrived in the village of Korphe. It was the first night in the house went through 3 months since he began to climb K2. Seeorang been wrapped with a heavy blanket and curl up with Mortenson's nice and warm underneath. In a house of a nurmadhar (elders / chiefs) village, Haji Ali, he was treated with a vengeance and special. Indeed as a Muslim, we are right with schools of Prophet Muhammad's exhortation to honor guests; so people treat Korphe Mortenson-a stranger who got lost in a weary, tired, anxious and uncertain. For several days he lived while recovering condition in Korphe. With more and recovered his strength, he joined mingle with residents and even a little medical equipment and expertise he has a nurse who helps people injured Korphe, a small operation to infection, a broken bone. It Korphe state far from the normal standard that we can imagine. To obtain health services to the village to another by crossing the river and the road climbed Braldu. It's hard to imagine, it sounds like isolated tribes in Borneo or New Guinea, which lies between the mountains and big rivers. Mortenson was surprised (more exactly shocked) when I saw 28 boys and 4 girls knelt in a circle on the ground that freezes in the middle of the open air. They were practicing the lessons without teachers, the school is in Korphe. Haji Ali explains Korphe not have schools and their teachers sharing with other villages to teach 3 days ago in Korphe rest in a nearby village. "I promised to build a school for Korphe", Mortenson promised to Haji Ali. Since then a way of life Mortenson became much more difficult and challenging, not to reach the peak of K2, but the peak is more admirable struggle to build schools in northern Pakistan precisely in areas isolated even in the Taliban areas. This is the opening section.

Next recounted how Mortenson began to realize the promise of full Korphe naivete in his first school building. I called naive because he wanted to achieve his dream with high morale but are not balanced with a mature strategic calculation. Approximately 3 years later after several delays, his first dream school was completed in Korphe. With his first experience and local support from Pakistan and American donors, he continued the construction of schools and public facilities failitas life-support isolated tribes around the Baltistan to Afghanistan to fight the most extraordinary. Similarly, the local citizens who sincerely support the activities. The story of his adventures to ever diasndera at a location on the Afghan border. The most interesting I think is the beginning of his journey in Afghanistan to meet a tribe leader in Afghanistan to build schools in the area. Then imagine it's like Indiana Jones movie really, surprise! It's worthed to read by our selves to know the details of each Mortenson's efforts and challenges in the field did, so no I'll tell you here, let the book Three Cups of Tea was delivered to you.

One thing that is not less interesting than this book is the impression of objectivity Mortenson's view contrary to government policy itself (USA) in the fight against terrorism. According to terrorism (or more precisely extremism) can not be controlled by force; it will bear even more hatred against America that led to the so-called terrorist acts. One way to reach children who are isolated and living in poverty is by education and attention which gave birth to the future brighter for them. There is a section of dialogue in the final chapter of this book between Mortenson with Brigadier General Bashir, who talks about the ongoing war in Iraq at the time. Bashir was watching CNN footage of Iraqi women carrying the bodies of their children from the rubble of bombed buildings. Bashir responded to Mortenson that even though he is an educated moderate Muslims, he could be an extremist if you see such conditions. Americans are responsible for the deaths of civilians, especially children and women. Mortenson said that Usama is also responsible for the war was going. But Usama Bashir denied that the product is not Pakistan or Afghanistan, Usama and replica-replica was made in America. America is not the enemy Usama or Saddam, but the main enemy is ignorance. The only way to defeat it is to establish rapport and draw them into the modern world with education.

Mortenson's a lot of opinions that deserve thumbs up, one of the Guantanamo prison. Moved from his experience building a mullah in a region that is opposed by the decay of a mullah fatwas are not honest. The case was brought to the Syariah Court and won a court case on the CAI. He became very touched because Islamic court in Pakistan's conservative Shiite provide protection for an American, but the U.S. government actually hold hundreds of Muslims without any charges at Guantanamo, Cuba. Indeed he was disappointed with the justice system's own country.

As stated by Mortenson's mother-in-law, he was like a special species in this world. Specific species, because he is an ordinary person (not a prophet or a saint or a saint) but has the ability and willingness to do extraordinary amazing things to change (read: improve) a civilization in a way that is simple and honest. (Never compare to such as Bill Gates, celebrities who through his business with dishonest way, although the first time I've admired him in college, too lho; p). Mortenson as a combination between a U.S. and Pakistan. One of them is reflected in the cultural intelligence they had, which he could enjoy just sleeping, eating and drinking with the local villagers and the brothers even mingle as if he was part of them. An international journalists who had followed Moretnson even complain (to himself) had to sleep in for a simple room which he smelled like a goat-and Mortenson never complained even though he is in caves idur people Korphe. Mortenson as having no culture shock with all keminiman living standards and poverty she experienced during her visit in Pakistan. He can enjoy wherever he is!
