New York New Year's Party & Ambassador Briefing | Print |  E-mail

The New Year’s party thrown by YPFDJ-NY was conducted in a patriotic manner.  The event, as do all of our events, started out with a moment of silence for all of our martyrs Zikri Sematat) and continued on with the rest of the program which included a briefing by HE,Ambassador Araya Desta, performances by Hidri and new music sensation Afworki Teshome.

The ambassador gave a timely update on the unjust sanctions, the true motives behind it and what it means for all of us.  Following that, YPFDJ-NY promoted the E-SMART (Eritrean Sanctions Must be Annulled and Repealed Today) campaign and collected signatures for the petition.

Despite some technical difficulties, Afworki gave a sensational performance in the gwayla singing classic songs such as “libay” and “n’adayay.”  Not to be outdone, Hidri, which means promise in Tigrinya, showed us how truly talented the next generation of Eritreans is.  For the cultural preservation of our beloved country, the group sang the legendary song "tsinatna" and followed up with a Bilen dance.

History repeats itself over and over again.  That being said, regardless of the amount of hurdles thrown at us and how powerful it is… WE PROVE OVER AND OVER AGAIN, in the end, Eritrea still prevails!
