Loved Dr Kooria’s talk at KCL on Matrilineal Islam.

There cannot be a creolisation without de- creolisation in the words of Prof Kabir.

As an observer of the Indian Ocean based in Malaysia, creole is a way of life as it is a contact zone, just look at a Mamak restaurant, where Roti Canai rules.

It is not everyday that a refinery ESIA that one worked nine years back gets officially inaugurated by His Majesty The Sultan of Oman and Kuwaiti Prime Minister. DRPIC or Duqm Refinery remains one of the biggest projects of my career. I remember working with Mr. Prabhu, Sanjeev Sir, Nashwa Madam and the legendary Dr Hussam of HMR Consultants in two different stints during the main regulatory ESIA and the update.
