Julius – Happy to share and save a life
Fiji Sun letter writer of the week Julius Sean Kamali, 48, chooses to write only on topics he thinks will make a difference in society.
In his winning letter titled ‘Weather forecast’ he highlighted that the weather reports failed to connect with a good portion of the populace in the details of the approach, movement and devastation by Tropical Cyclone Winston on February 20.
“For the rural sector they don’t know where it’s (cyclone) really located with the way its told and I feel the educated people need to tell them in simple language so they understand and I feel the way the media tells us the cyclone is located is for mariners understanding,” Mr Kamali said.
“I chose the topic I want to write on and I only write when I feel there is a topic I can contribute to that concerns our society but I am not a weekly or monthly writer.”
Mr Kamali was surprised and happy to win a Parker pen.
“I am happy I had something to share that could save somebody else’s life which was the main message,” Mr Kamali said.
His winning letter was published in the Fiji Sun on Monday April 11.
Mr Kamali is from Wallis and Futuna and works at Pacific Centrecom Fiji Ltd as a travel manager.
