Topic Reading-Vol.1608-9/5/2016

Dear MEL Topic Readers,
Safety tip from India's tourism minister: Don't wear skirts
What’s his job? The person who is in charge of promoting tourism in India was backfired when he commented that women who visit India shouldn't wear skirts for their own safety. For what reasons?
As many of you know, recently, sexual assaults against any women, foreigners or children, have been reported and accused of extensively in India. One of the reasons seems to be historical and traditional view and treatment of women. Another is the fact that there are fewer police officers per citizen in India than most of the countries. Indeed. You won’t see much police presence on the street in India where traffic goes crazy.
Enjoy reading and thinking what the minister wanted to tell or warn foreign visitors.
