We will all one day — Nguyễn Thị Phương Trâm

There’ll come a day

Nguyễn Thị Phương Trâm

A poem in Vietnamese by Dương Diên Hồng

Translator: Nguyễn Thị Phương Trâm


THERE’LL COME A DAY…

They’ll come a day when your garden will be full of flowers

Birds singing dancing on the lawn

A sawfly may build a nest there and may accidentally bite you

and that’s fine

they merely want us to slow down

don’t be in such a hurry to sweep away the yellow leaves

they were green once on the branches…

SẼ CÓ…

cũng không sao

các em ấy nhắc mình

những chiếc lá vàng đừng quét vội

hôm qua từng là lá xanh…

Jamaicans are eating way too much salt, a new Health Ministry study shows

The salt study comes against the background of concerning statistics for hypertension (high blood pressure) among Jamaicans.

In 2017, 31.5% of persons in this age group had high blood pressure compared to 20.9% in 2001.

My husband has regularly complained at our local cook shop about the high levels of salt in their otherwise quite good dishes. The chef maintains that all that salt is necessary – and that is what his customers want. So, he has lost one customer.

And what of the children? Perhaps this will come later in the Ministry of Health and Wellness study on the awfully high levels of salt in the Jamaican diet (see their press release below). A television report this evening noted that vendors outside the Oracabessa High School “are ready to provide healthier options for students.” I know a draft school nutrition policy is in the works, and hope that this will include a reduction in salty foods as well as sugary snacks and drinks (the report did not mention salt). Kudos to vendor Sophia Jones Anderson, who is really trying! There are other issues though:…
