The prohibition of Genetically Modified grain isn’t
sufficient to protect the flora and fauna. 60 million of hectares are planted
all over the world. GM grains are
cultivated in over 16 countries of the world. Only in 2002 were planted about
60 million of hectares with dozens of GM grains. In Though the facts these experiments are
presented as a test of the affect GM grains have in relation to the
environment, the main test indeed is their resistance against weed. The
studies are focused on the effect of herbicides on the flora and fauna in
fields, either weed on insects. The plants resistant to herbicides are not GM The use of
herbicides in Their effect in the European flora and
fauna might be more negative than the GM grains resistant to weed, for many
of the grafts use herbicides that are stronger than the GM grains. Consider
the fact that like with GM grains, the resistance to herbicides can be spread
in other grains and plants. Desired qualities These grains,
however, might not be “treated” as rigorously as the GM grains, for they’re
not genetically changed. The only obstacle to them in the Quick disintegration The glisofate is considered as one of the most useful
herbicides for the fact that it is quickly disintegrated. Many of the other
herbicides do not have this faculty. In The first species of “TT canola” were created
by scientists at the University of Guelph, Ontario, Canada. Canola was grafted with a kind of neighbour, Brassica
rapa, which is resistant to triazins.
Another kind of grain became resistant to the family of imidazoline
trying the alternations through chemical ways until getting the production of
the kind resistant to the abovementioned herbicide. These kinds of resistant grain were
approved without the troubles that usually follow GM grains. There was
objection that imidazolins and atrazin
are more harmful to the environment than herbicides like glifozat.
But Rick Roush, who worked for five years in the Gene’s Technology
Administration Office, now pedagogue at the Growing use Imidazoline is an herbicide
with a long life, so that it makes impossible the growth of grains for the
coming season. Australians, who are against GM grains, have ignored the fact
that most of the used canola
tolerates herbicides and other problems coming out by the use of other
herbicides. The use of atrazine in Great Britain rose
from 34,000 kg in 1992 in 130,000 kg in 2002, this because more naturally
resistant grain and corn is planted. Atrazine was one of the “most standard
cures” through which the GM grain resistant to glifozat
was tested in the farms of Criticizers say that corn resistant to glifozat has advantage when compared to atrazine, but
this comparison is meaningless when EU has prohibited it by law. The law of EU means that TT Canola cannot
be cultivated in Te use of
herbicides in “The advanced technology exists, but
unfortunately the means used to rule the use of technology in farms are
missing”, says Johnson, counselor over GM technology in the English Nature
safeguard association. Fatos Kopliku Molecular Biologist, scientific employee in the

The generating cells of the new democratic
government were breathless because of the thunderclap of the communist gangs.
There was no room to talk about plans and ideas of building democracy, but
about the violence reigning on the streets and every aspect of the Albanian
life. The young student from Malësi
e Madhe, who had just entered the new doors of
life, with great dreams to become an honored name by the generations, as a
teacher and educator, Hanë Dreshaj,
with her red hair, was forced, out of her dreams and desires, to leave
everything she thought would serve the future of the country and keep herself
safe to live, yet not free. In the beginning of the ’90, Hanë Dreshaj was a student in
the secondary school, and likewise thousands of Albanian students, was flying
with the wings of the dreams of democracy. She was an activist of the ADP and
along with her friends founded the Youth Forum of the Albanian Democratic
Party. Even though menaced several times by agents of the security of the
state, she doesn’t give up the way she started. Years go by and she enters the structures of
the ADP. Her friends do never forget her contribution in democratic meetings
and manifestations. When speaking with the friends of Hana, they don’t forget
to tell the numerous incidents they faced by the extremist communists and
segments of the secret police. Hanë Dreshaj,
was the model of a good friend, a person who studied and was persistent in
realizing her goals. She did never give up when she began something. She had
the ability to convince people about the democratic truth, the human right, -
say those who studied and worked with her, all those who knew Hana during
those years of a deep social and political movement. The year 1997, cut her dreams in half, just
like many other young workers and activists of the Albanian democracy. Hanë Dreshaj was forced to
leave her work as a teacher, for which she worked so hard and sacrificed many
nights and days to become someone in life. Although jobless, she didn’t give
up the democratic movement and her help to the ADP in the country where she
lived. She took part in electoral campaigns supporting the democrat
candidates. Again she was a target of those who had usurped the power with
violence and blood. She didn’t give up her democratic attitude and support to
the ADP, even after the macabre violence used on her until the last moments
she stayed in her country. Her parents haven’t seen her since the last
year when she left We love her, and we miss her so much that
any time the door opens, we hope it’s her, - says her mom. It is better
however that she is where she is, for here she would have her life in serious
danger. Her father is silent and thoughtful.
Perhaps for the destiny of her daughter, or his inability to help her to be
free in her country, or, perhaps… who knows how much does a parent think of
his daughter, now far from him. She is far away, very far. God is great and merciful on us - says
again her mom - and might give us the chance to see my daughter free and
embrace her. She left very soon. Those were the circumstances. She couldn’t
stay here anymore. It became very dangerous for her and us too. May god bless
her way and her friends, who are forced to leave their country and parents. You can’t help but reminding the red hair
teacher, when you go by the school she taught. She, who loved so much her
pupils, now is far away, from them, from her friends, from her dream that now
is cut in half. Alban Predeleci The former
persecuted of dictatorship, persecuted even today
Kejdis David Lika, born on March 29, 1980, partook with his father in
political anticommunist protests of January 14, 1990, June 16, 1990, December
13, 1990, April 2, 1991, where he faced violence. As a young man grown up
with anticommunist ideas, while his forerunners were mistreated during the
communist regime of Enver Hoxha,
his family was deprived of its property and rights. He was active, along with
his father in every peaceful protest against violence and injustice used by
the new communists. Kejdis Lika
is a member of the anticommunist political association “13 Dhjetori 1990”. Based on documents we have in the archive
of our journal, this guy gave a great contribution in safeguarding the
institutions against the communist rebellion during the troubles of 1997,
when Fatos Nano and the communist gangs broke up
the storehouses and took the weapons stored in there. The young Albanian, Lika, on September 14, 1998 was in the great protest
during the funeral of the deputy Azem Hajdari, murdered in Tirana by the communists. There he
faced violence fro about three hours and was warned
that he and his family will face violence again by the communists who have
also killed many young people like him, what we have published in our journal
with courage. Based on official documents of the
Association of the Political Persecuted of Shkodra,
led by Caf Jonuzi, Kejdis Lika is the nephew of
Ali Lika. His Uncle, Ali Lika,
was imprisoned and suffered in the prisons of dictatorship from 1955 until
1959, four years. Kejdis Lika
was included in the letter “D” of the letter “B” (point 3) of the status of
the political persecuted of The return on power of the new
dictatorship, through the communist amed
revolution, marked the restart of persecution for the democratic element and
the persecuted people by dictatorship. Menaces, physical and psychological
violence, imprisonment and physical elimination was back as a practice of the
political police of the regime installed after 1997. In these circumstances,
likewise hundreds others, Kejdis Lika had to leave Sokol Pepushaj The
