OOPERATION ATM WINDFALLS (SHORT PLAY )

The characters

1 Russian   thief

2 Romanian   thief

3  Italian thief

A  resort  at Kovalam.The thieves are disussing  way  forward

Russian

Hey,it's one week since we checked in here. Our funds are fast drying up.Something  must be done quickly.Bartelli,what are your findings in your research?
   
Italian

My investigations reveal that Kerala is ideal for OPERATION ATM.Kerala is really a sitting duck for thieves, crooks and fraudsters, both local and international.The police have their hands full.

Romanian

I have noticed that early morning is

 ideal for our operation.

RUSSIAN

Why?

Romanian

Because this is a strange country.The country is deep asleep till  around 7 a.M.The country is at a standstill. It's a time when most people remain indoors, sipping tea or coffee,eating hot dosa,and above all,reading newspapers and watching TV.We shall execute
our plan between  6 a.M and  7 a.m

Italian

You are absolutely correct.Yesterday I observed the SBI ATM between 6 and 7, and only two customers visited.

RUSSIAN

That's  very positive news.

Romanian

What if we are caught?

Italian

No chance.Before the theft is uncovered,we will be out of the country.

Russian

Even if we are caught,nothing to worry. The law is skewed in favour of criminals.

Romanian

Don't  underestimate the Kerala Police.They are clever.

Italian

Maybe,but the law here is out-
dated and full of loopholes.Remember the case of the two Italian sailors who killed two Kerala fishermen.

Russian

You are correct. So, shall we embark on the operation tomorrow at Vellayambalam? 6 a.m ?

Romanian

Agreed.Inform  our friends in Mumbai.

Italian

They  are already waiting. Are the devices ready?

Russian

Everything OK.

Italian

Early to bed.

Romanian

Good night.

Russian

Good night

( CURTAIN)

A POEM FOR BAKOLOBENG STUDENTS

            A  poem   for  Bakolobeng    students  April   25th   was  a memorable   day  at  Bakolobeng   Secondary   School for   many   reasons. It  was the  last working  day of the  month  due to  a  long   weekend and  extended  special  school  holidays. For  me and  for Mrs. Visser, the  Principal, it was  our  last day  in our  careers. By  a  lucky coincidence, it was  my birthday. I   heard  that  the teachers, students  and the School  Governing  Body members  had  planned  a  special assembly  to  honour us. I thought  that the assembly  was  after  lessons, but  they  wanted to ...

The attack on Oommen Chandy-a Pravasi's perspective ( opinion)

The  attack on  Oommen  Chandy- a  Pravasi's  perspective   ( opnion ) The vicious attack  on Honourable  Chief Minister  Sri Oommen Chandy  at  Kannur, allegedly by CPM goondas, has shocked and  saddened  civilised , peace-loving  Malayalees  in India  and abroad. But , unfortunately, there are some people ,who are uncivilised anarchists  who celebrate ,rejoice, and justify  the cowardly and barbaric attack  on the Chief Minister. They are happy that , at least, one of them was able to injure Ommen Chandy, and of course there are others who regret that he escaped death. Such people can be found on the social media, making crude jokes about  Sri  Chandy's injury. It's  a true reflection of the scum that are baying for the blood of Oommen  Chandy. Some gutter channels play second fiddle to these  barbarians ! But  every  decent Malayalee...
