Day 702-705 Igor Janke: Come On Hungarians!





Second week in souring heat and continues between 35-40C. I am sitting in the living room having the ventilator on, all the shutters closed and waiting for the cold wave. Cooking is a real challenge in the evening plus 10C in the kitchen and continues sweating. Sleeping during the night is a lost battle, but this all make us more and more aware of having to save for an air conditioning until next summer. My worries about the extra electricity usage is starting to evaporate and more and more inclined to give in to the global warming. I am not keen on wasting electricity for luxury, but if I think about the things I did last week, I feel it will worth it to have a cool living room, where I will be able to do more work, than I can now.
The good news is, I started writing again and it is a lovely process. I normally do it in the mornings. Also finally took pictures of the things I made and spent time on reading up on product development and playing around with ideas. So much to think of.
And I am reading a fascinating book, Igor Janke: Come On Hungarians! He is a Polish journalist and his book is about the life of Viktor Orban the current Hungarian Prime Minister. I would recommend this book to everybody who has taken any interest at the political forces within the EU to make Viktor Orban look like a dictator and the demolisher of democracy. This accusation is absurd and without the will of wanting to understand Hungary’s history it is far too easy to jump on the bandwagon of the accusers. This book is a necessary piece of work to understand the political and economic background of our country, to understand his actions to lead Hungary out of recession and to put a final end to the 40 years of communism and later almost 20 years of post communism. I find it incredibly sad, that the EU had been so kind to us up until the day we said yes to everything they asked, for example closing our sugar factories and all sorts, loosing many jobs and good quality products. But when we try to stand up for saving our country from even more economic disasters, we are simply treated like badly behaving children in the kindergarten, who need to be told off and humiliated in front of all the other kids whilst having to smile to the bad quality sugar that comes from other EU countries’ sugar factories. I have never seen sugar before that had white dusty bits in it. It used to be all clear. Of course many people boycott the foreigner dusty sugar and buy the only existing Hungarian factory’s products we have left to save jobs and the good quality. That is simply obvious. Any other countries’ citizens would do the same.
I am incredibly proud of our Prime Minister, who stands up for our country, who has the quality of a strong leader and who has the strengths, courage and ability to lead his country out of recession.
And one more thing: those who are against communism because have closely experienced it, not only read about it, are not fascists. And that is what many foreigner politician and journalist who attack our Prime Minister try to make people believe. This is a false way of portraying someone, who have been fighting against communism and post communism for almost 30 years, who stands up for all the minorities in Hungary including the Romani Gipsies and who is a believer in God. I wonder how many of his critiques could say the same about themselves. If we think about it with clear consciousness does he really sound like a dictator and the demolisher of democracy? I don’t think so. I am very proud of him and many many many many many many many many more Hungarians.
