| Re : How deceiving is Tunisia? Yep Sassou! I totally agree with you. I hope you didn't take my question as a personal point of view. But let's have a closer look at the matter. By Tunisia, I didn't mean the country itself but its administrative institutions, and those, are highly deceiving (at least as far as I can see). To lose a job, or an opportunity to sit for an exam (let alone succeeding)...just because only few people get it..people who are not always the right ones, but just happen to know the right persons, if you see what I mean.
I have a had a very successful life so far. But I see injustice everywhere I go. For example, I passed my CAPES 4 years ago and I was among the 10 first teachers in the Tunisian Republic in that exam. Instead of having a position in Tunis (where I do belong and live), I found myself sent to teach 400kms away from home whereas some teachers who didn't even succeed at the oral exam got their neighborhood and in universities. It is not envy I felt, it was just injustice. I see it daily. Even being fair with my pupils does not help. Each time, the headmaster is harassing us to add extra marks to that or that person. I don't do that but some teachers do, and that is unfair. Why does that have to exist in our countries? (because it does in many Arab countries)....
