A harmonious marriage requires love, respect, and consistent effort. These timeless principles, rooted in scripture, provide practical ways for husbands to honour their wives and foster lasting relationships.

My views are for married women and NOT single ladies complaining of infidelity in relationships when they themselves are fornicating and expecting the man to be faithful. First remove the log in your eyes before looking at the sperk in the man’s eyes.

I’ll say being unfaithful in marriage is wrong, inexcusable and hurts. It destroys trust which is the foundation…

There is the school of thoughts that those that have suffered some form of discrimination in the past should now be allowed to discriminate against others. The question then to ask is does the society eradicate discrimination by adding more…

Recruitment and human resource personnel play important roles in the life of a graduate, an employee and a contractor. It is likened to the role doctors and nurses play in the life of a patient, one of diagnosis, treatment, care and cure. While doctors and nurses have regulatory bodies that enforce standards and professionalism, the same cannot be said about recruiters, recruitment agencies or human resource staff. At the very best, they are not living up to expectations as there is a growing trend of bad practices by rogue recruiters which appears to go unchecked and unregulated without any obvious…
