Be careful please … if you are a journalist, then your life is in serious danger.
Dear reader, this article is not meant to trigger feelings of pessimism or spread panic, fear, and anxiety, but it is rather an acknowledgement of a fact and an assertion of an unfortunate reality experienced by millions of journalists around the world on a daily basis.
To feel safe after being pursued and chased for a long time by the police is a big deal. When circumstances and fate lead you to work in the field of journalism, and you start writing about corruption in your homeland and criticising the government, and then you let your pen lead you too far until you dare to reproach the head of state. At that point, they arrest you and oppress you. So you find yourself forced to leave your country in search of a safe haven where you can practice journalism and feel secure to close your door and sleep peacefully for the first time in your life.
