Reisverhaal The Realm of the Punisher | Tom Sykes
Reisverhaal The Realm of the Punisher | Tom Sykes
In June 2016, Rodrigo Duterte won the Philippine presidential election by a landslide. Infamous for his bombastic temper and un-PC wisecracks, he is waging a brutal drug war that has killed more than 12,000 people so far.   Over the last nine years, British writer Tom Sykes has travelled extensively in the Philippines in order to understand the Duterte phenomenon, interviewing friends and enemies of ‘The Punisher’ – as he is known – in politics, the media, the arts and civil society. Sykes witnesses anti-government demonstrations in the capital Manila and visits the provincial city of Davao, where Duterte began his crusade against crime using police and vigilante death squads. By delving into Duterte’s troubled childhood of violent rebellion, Sykes discovers what motivates the man today in his pursuit of a merciless ‘war on the poor’ – as Amnesty has described it – that has no end in sight.   The Realm of the Punisher also examines oppressed and marginalized groups in the modern Phili…

Wandelkaart The Great Himalaya Trail | GHT
Wandelkaart The Great Himalaya Trail | GHT
  Prachtige kaartenserie van één van 'swerelds mooiste wandeltochten.   The Far West is one of the least explored areas of Nepal. Its area is bounded to the east by mighty, turquoise Karnali river which flows from Tibet’s sacred Mount Kailash.   Myth and superstition remain part of the fabric of life here. Though the Nepali language originated here, it seems a distant world from ‘modern’ Nepal. One Nepali visitor described his visit as “fascinating, like travelling back to the 18th century.”   Along the trails you may meet a turbaned Dhami, a shaman, with silver-bangled limbs and gold-ringed ears, who are still depended on for treating sickness.   Organised tourism has so far been limited to Khaptad National Park, the only national park in the mid-hills of Nepal and held dearly by conservationists. Gentle hills, pristine forests and abundant wildlife with a snow-covered backdrop of the Nampa, Api and Saipal peaks make for beautiful trekking.   It’s also a holy place associated with Kh…

Fortunately for the nerve-shaken, over-civilized peo…

The Hobbit An Unexpected Journey Statue #13 Apple Orchard 20 cm
The Hobbit An Unexpected Journey Statue #13 Apple Orchard 20 cm
Scattered among the grassy hills of Hobbiton like a purse full of lost coins, the round doors of many dozen hobbit-holes shine in bright, summery hues, each home to a hobbit or family of the little people.As diverse as the rosy-cheeked hobbits themselves, every smial, as hobbit-holes are known, reflects the unique personality of its inhabitant and nestles into the hillside amid a sea of lush greenery.Ripe red apples dangle thick amid the boughs of number 13's trees, framing the pretty lemon-yellow door of the home of Bilbo and Frodo's cousins the Sackville-Bagginses. Yet for all their home's charm and bounty, the sour-faced Lobelia and Otho have eyes only for Bag End, and peer enviously out of their window at the Hill.Dimensions: 7 x 20 x 5,5 cm
