The Malaysia-Indonesia Remittance Corridor Making formal transfers the best option for women and undocumented migrants East Asia Social Development Unit Financial Market Integrity Unit (FPDFI) The World Bank Content Global Remittance Trends Indonesian Migrants: Vulnerability and Use of Remittances The Malaysia-Indonesia Migration and Remittance Corridor Transfer of Remittances Implications for Policy 2 Global Migration Trends: The number of migrants continues to increase More than 190 million people – or about 3% of the world's population are living in countries in which they were not born IOM (2005) notes that: – There is a shift in destination countries – A rise in undocumented labor flows – An increasing feminization of migrant workers In 2005, East Asia and Pacific Region accounted for $45 billion, or 17% of global recorded remittance inflows Indonesia has 4.3 million citizens working overseas mostly in Middle East and Asia Pacific. Migration is increasingly feminized and increasingly undocumented. 3 Global Remittance Trends: Recorded remittance flows continues to increase $ billion Private debt 275 and portfolio equity 225 FDI 175 Recorded remittances 125 75 ODA 25 -25 4 Global Remittance Trends: Poverty Reduction Evidence from a few household surveys shows that remittances reduce poverty Cross-country evidence shows that a 10% increase in per capita remittances leads to a 3.5% decline in the share of poor people Remittances also finance education and health expenditures, and ease credit constraints on small businesses However, qualitative evidence suggests this may not be the case in Indonesia 5 Indonesian Migration In 2005, remittances were estimated at US$5.3 billion, making remittances the second highest forex earner after oil and around 1.5% of GDP This is lower than China ($22 billion) or Philippines ($14 billion) 680,000 workers left on contracts in 2006, almost 80% were women, 88% of whom work in informal sector and come from poor rural areas 6 Map: Migration and Remittances in Indonesia 7 Vulnerability of Tenaga Kerja Indonesia (TKI) TKIs migrate primarily for financial reasons, but migration is risky for several reasons: Indonesian laws and regulations exacerbate migrant vulnerability (concentrate power in recruitment companies) Malaysian laws and regulations weaken position of migrants (e.g. employers retain passports) The cost of migration is high and migrants must borrow to finance migration Lack of institutional framework and capacity for effective monitoring Little or no accountability mechanisms Weak support mechanisms for migrants in sending villages and destination places of work 8 Indonesian Migrants: Use of Remittances Estimated 45% of wages earned are sent back as remittances to families Remittances used to pay debts, and for day-to-day living and consumption expenses of family left behind, for house building and improvement, and luxury consumer goods Fewer migrants invest in health and education, or in productive activities There is rarely a plan for investment of remittances and migrants have little control over the use of remittances while they are away (although they regain control when they return) Families become dependent on remittances, and with few sustainable livelihood improvements, migrants get trapped in a cycle of migration Main Challenge: How can the impact on poverty reduction be improved and sustained? 9 The Corridor: Major Destinations for Indonesian Migrants 350,000 Saudi Arabia 300,000 250,000 Malaysia number of migrants 200,000 150,000 100,000 50,000 Taiwan Hong Kong UAE Kuwait 0 1997 1998 1999 2000 2001 2002 2003 2004 2005 2006 10 The Corridor: Indonesian migrants in Malaysia Malaysia is second highest recipient of Indonesian migrant workers after Saudi Arabia and the number is increasing 17% of Malaysia's workforce are from overseas: more than 60% of these are from Indonesia Approximately 1.3 million documented and 700,000 undocumented Indonesian migrants worked in Malaysia in 2006 60% of documented Indonesian migrants in Malaysia are women Undocumented workers travel without visas, overstay visa/work permit, change jobs without necessary procedures They have no legal protection and are often exploited by Malaysian employers due to their illegal immigration status 11 The Corridor: Remittance Characteristics Fees to secure jobs can be several hundred dollars Other formal costs borne by domestic workers migrating from Indonesia to Malaysia total about $340 Monthly salary between $145 and 200 for domestic workers Average remittance amount is estimated at $115-$150 per transaction In 2005, Indonesia received about $5.3 billion (IMF) in remittances of which about $2.7 billion was from Malaysia Only about 20% total remittances arrive in Indonesia through formal channels, and even less - about 10% of remittances arrive in formal channels from Malaysia 12 The Corridor: Remittance Trend While the number of documented TKI in Malaysia have been increasing, the remittances sent to Indonesia through the formal system decreased both in real terms and as a percentage of total remittances Outflows to Indonesia as a percentage of the total decreased from 35 percent in 1997 to 13 percent in 2006 2,500 2,000 Grand Total millions of US$ 1,500 Other 1,000 500 Indonesia Singapore United States 0 1997 1998 1999 2000 2001 2002 2003 2004 2005 2006 13 Source: Bank Negara Malaysia, based on bank and RSP reporting The Corridor: Disparity in formal and total remittance flows 6 5 4 Billions of US$ 3 2 1 0 Total Remittances Remittances Total remittances from Malaysia to reaching remittances into leaving Malaysia Indonesia Indonesia from Indonesia Malaysia Calculated from migrant stock Recorded through formal channels 14 Transfer Mechanisms Costs and risks of remitting funds are considerable in proportion to TKI salary Bank channels make up 90 percent of formal channels, but represent a slim percentage of total remittance flows An unregulated industry has arisen to facilitate remittances in situations where remitting funds through formal channels is difficult This industry includes account mediators, migration agents or agencies, and informal channels that are part of formal enterprises (money changers) 15 Transfer Mechanisms – Cont'd Migrant workers – especially undocumented ones have more incentives to use informal remittance channels Returned TKIs have a generally clearer understanding of the costs and benefits of the different channels of remitting funds Financial literacy among TKIs is low 16 Comparing Incentives of Remittance Channels Remittance Channels Postal Money Informal Bank (money MTO Changer Channels order) Access no no no yes yes without ID Geographic coverage in limited good limited unknown good Incentives Malaysia Relative price variable inexpensive expensive inexpensive unknown of fees Speed moderate-slow slow fast fast variable Language variable variable variable variable none Barrier Minimal no no no yes yes Paperwork Source: World Bank 17 Migration Costs Annual Cost of Migrating and Remitting Funds for an Indonesian worker in Malaysia domestic construction plantation work average monthly salary a 170 80 157.5 average salary for a year 2040 960 1890 average amount remitted in one year b 918 432 850.5 average migration cost c -475 -363 -343 yearly remittance cost (to send from Malaysia) d -7 -7 -7 yearly remittance cost (to receive in Indonesia) -20 -20 -20 total cost -502 -390 -370 a. Average salary for a year was found by taking the average monthly salary in US dollars (provided by the Malaysian Ministry of Home Affairs) and multiplying by 12 b. Average amount remitted is based on Bank Indonesia estimate that a TKI remits approximately 45% of his or her salary c. Average migration cost and yearly remittance costs (in US dollars) are based upon World Bank primary interviews with TKI and RSPs d. Salary yearly remittance cost is based upon the assumption that workers remit twice a year through bank channels 18 In Summary The number of migrants to Malaysia is increasing, increasingly feminized, and many undocumented migrants Migrant workers are increasingly choosing non-formal means to transfer remittances because: – Identification: they can't meet the requirements – Access: they ( or the recipients) can't reach the banks easily – Cost: High cost of remitting through banks – Competition: other means of transfer are more responsive to their needs However, qualitative evidence suggests that improvements are needed for remittances to have a greater impact on poverty reduction Possible security implications of large flows of unrecorded remittances 19 Avenues for Policy Consideration I. Make the formal sector accessible and responsive to migrant workers, while recognizing the need to establish basic requirements for transparency and regulation, through: – Enhancing Security and Reliability of Identification Strengthen the reliability of passports by ensuring the same number is not issued and by assessing the use of biometric information (ie. fingerprints etc) Issue new ID cards for migrants, recognized by both countries and financial institutions – Promoting Customization of Products and Organizational Structures Encouraging banks and postal systems to develop financial products tailored to TKIs New rules allowing Malaysian money changers to act as RSPs should be tailored to their economic and institutional capacity 20 Avenues for Policy Consideration II. Facilitate migrant workers access into the formal sector, via: – Expanding Financial Education Financial Literacy Programs could be implemented at the pre- departure stage in Indonesia, and when foreigner cards are issued in Malaysia Awareness raising programs for female TKI, through employers of female TKI and leaders of TKI communities, to promote empowerment and financial literacy – Ensuring Better Assessment Techniques of Data and Regulatory Changes Longer period of observation to comprehensively assess market responses to recent regulations adopting new registration system for RSPs in Indonesia Improved data quality, gathering and reporting procedures, to expand existing knowledge of available data to create better informed policy choices for TKI 21 Avenues for Policy Consideration – Involving Relevant Development Actors to Facilitate Migration MFIs and NGOs could be convinced to finance migration for formal and informal TKIs, under the condition that only formal transfers are used for future remittance transfers Collateral for Migration could be guaranteed by local communities III. Formalize and regulate the informal providers, while maintaining their accessibility to migrant workers, through: – Enabling strategic partnerships between formal and informal remittance service providers The enhanced private sector participation would reduce transfer costs and expand remittance flows Account mediators should be part of the formal channel for distribution because these informal operators access rural communities in Indonesia where no banks have a presence Recent regulatory legislation allowing individuals and informal corporate entities in Indonesia to legally provide remittance services should be properly monitored and implemented 22 Thank You for Your Attention!

WTO in Seattle: Tempers start to fray as delegates trade resentment
Many delegates complained that - in part because of the demonstrations - progress was slow, and they blamed inactivity by the WTO Director General, Mike Moore. But the real bile was reserved for the American hosts. Sometimes it seemed that there were two summits going on: one between Americans and Americans, and another for the rest of the world. The result was a bad-tempered and unproductive session that will leave lasting resentments.
The atmosphere was soured from the start, since talks in Geneva had failed to make any progress. Then on Tuesday delegates were trapped in hotels, caught in tear gas fusillades and sometimes pushed around.
The intervention of President Clinton mid-week may have done much to calm tensions on the streets and heal rifts in the Democratic Party, but it left delegates steaming. And America's determination to push through its version of an agreement may have helped build support for trade domestically, but it enraged many other nations.
A deal on agriculture was shaping up yesterday morning, as the delegates from the main countries went to the "green room" - the place where deals are tied up between small groups of nations in the closing stages. Agriculture was always the keystone of a deal, as one of the most emotive and technically complicated subjects, but after a night of tough talking, the words were starting to come between the US and the agricultural exporters of the Cairns Group on one side, and the EU on the other.
But the more significant problems were not those between developed countries: they were those which divided the North and the South. And here, the atmosphere was becoming poisonous. The US had promised to make this round of talks a "development round", and pledged greater openness to the poor nations. Instead, they ended up feeling marginalised and insulted. One pregnant Colombian delegate was knocked to the ground in the melee on Tuesday; an African delegate was refused entry to the conference.
Many expressed disbelief that the Americans had permitted demonstrators to parade outside their hotels , and saw this as an attempt to pressure them. When Mr Clinton flew in to Seattle on Wednesday, his aim was clearly to bridge the gap that divided the country and especially his party. In particular, he wanted to address those who, like the US unions, wanted new rules to regulate labour standards and impose penalties on countries that break them.This was always the most tricky issue. India, Pakistan, Malaysia, Egypt and other nations strongly oppose the idea, and were promising to block it right to the end.
Yet this was the most crucial issue for the US government, facing demonstrations by trade unions outside, pressure inside from John Sweeney, the head of the AFL-CIO, (American's umbrella union body), an election in a year's time and deep divisions in the Democratic Party.
So in an interview with the Seattle Post-Intelligencer, Mr Clinton said the US wanted sanctions; and in speeches, he seemed more concerned to express his sympathies with the demonstrators.
The developing countries who oppose linking trade and labour felt this was proof that they could not back down. As the talks moved into their second day on Thursday - late, disorganised and bad-tempered - Charlene Barshefsky, the US Trade Representative, accelerated the separate working groups. Many countries then felt cut out of the process; some had their speaking time cut or their texts ignored - and they went ballistic.
"There is no transparency in the proceedings and African countries are being marginalized and generally excluded on issues of vital importance," the Organization of African Unity said in a statement.
Even if the summit does succeed in setting a course for three years of negotiations on a new world trade pact, it is clear that the WTO has been gravely wounded by the week, and American credibility on trade issues further undermined abroad. For a domestic audience, none of this matters quite so much; and in the end, it was only the domestic audience that American officials, who were supposed to be chairing and running this conference, really cared about.

The Obama administration is still playing it cool with environmentalists. First it skirted the protracted battle over the Keystone XL pipeline, which could carry dirty tar sands oil from Canada to the American Gulf Coast. Now it's facing opposition to proposed fracking regulations on tens of millions of acres of government land.
The Obama administration on Friday unveiled its first major standards for oil companies that frack on federal lands, including beefed-up safety measures to protect groundwater, prompting industry complaints they will be a barrier to growth.
Bottom Line: US Interior Secretary Ken Salazar is talking about a proposal to regulate oil and gas fracking on public lands, and while we haven't seen a draft of this proposal yet, word is that it will emerge in the very near future. Analysis: US media reports coming out of Washington say that Salazar has told a House subcommittee that draft regulations on fracking on public lands are in the works and should be announced in the near-term future.
By Don Dion: ExxonMobil Discloses Fracking Risk ExxonMobil Corp (XOM), the largest publicly-traded energy company in the world, has agreed to disclose environmental risks associated with hydraulic fracturing.
While clamping down on coal emissions with their new initiative to address climate change, it looks like the Obama administration is embracing natural gas extraction instead. That means fracking, the controversial recovery method that's driving America's natural gas boom, will continue.
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The Obama administration unveiled long-awaited rules on Friday to bolster oversight of so-called "fracking" on public lands, seeking to allay concerns over the technology that has spurred a U.S. boom in shale gas drilling. The Interior Department proposal would require that companies obtain government approval to use hydraulic fracturing, or fracking, in drilling for natural gas on federal lands. The rules would not affect drilling on private land, where the bulk of shale exploration is taking place. ...
By Huw Jones LONDON (Reuters) - Bankers could see part of their bonus wiped out if their employer's
Halliburton Co. and Baker Hughes Inc., the oilfield-services companies that agreed to merge in November, reported higher earnings for the last quarter of 2014 as they prepare for a downturn in the industry.
Last year the Bureau of Land Management (BLM), part of the Department of the Interior, released a draft rule to govern hydraulic fracturing on public lands, but it was so heavily criticised by Republicans and drilling companies that Obama's administration had to withdraw the proposal and return to the drawing board.Fracking is used for about 90% of all wells on public lands, so this set of regulations is due to affect a lot of companies.
Both sides are using movies to try to win the fracking debate, though actor Matt Damon says viewers should not assume the movie he stars in, Promised Land is "a rabid anti-fracking polemic." Not so long ago, fracking was a technical term little known beyond the energy industry. Now it's coming to Hollywood, as the fierce battle between environmentalists and oil firms is played out in several forthcoming films.

"Like Manet: Nude with Two Men" (2008) is a stunning, subversive, and ironic version of the famous painting "The Luncheon on the Grass" by French artist Edouard Manet. This work by Contemporary Chinese artist Wang Zi (b. 1972) stands as one of his finest paintings to date. Wang stays true to parts of the original narrative, such as the female nude bathing in the background, yet includes new elements, such as the large Chinese Scholar's Rock. This painting is from Wang's series of works that reinterpret famous Western paintings and photograph, typically inserting Mao Zedong, the Chinese Communist leader of the Cultural Revolution into all of them. He is seen here, alongside another man and a nude Mariyln Marilyn posed in "All American Pin-Up" style having a picnic. This painting measures 64.96 x 78.75 inches and is in perfect condition.
Wang Zi was born in China, and graduated from Anyang Normal College, Fine Art Department in 1994, and in 1997 he furthered his studies in the Center Academic Fine Arts. His exhibitions include the First as well as the Second International Art Festival in Beijing, the China National Visual Exhibition, and the Chinese Art Performance Documentary Exhibition,. The artist is represented by top galleries world-wide including the Yang Gallery, Singapore and Beijing, China.

February 18, 2015 - Bought this in remembrance of my Annie Cat. Loved it but the love bar didn't stay up tight - lost it. Really liked the design but am not happy with the performance! I'll look for another bracelet for Annie. Too bad - really thought it was cool and looked great. Sorry, only one star - not a well-thought out clasp.

Please contact our customer service department for store credit or exchange.February 13, 2015 - I absolutely loved this when it came. It's really cute, and goes with anything. It comes loose constantly and you have to pay full attention to it, or it will come off. The first night I wore mine, I lost it... :(
September 27, 2014 - Beautiful bracelet and nicely made - but the clasp loosen and comes off. You should fix this before you continue to sell it.
April 15, 2014 - Nice quality. I like it a lot but it runs a bit large. (I am 5'10, and average size) The slide "Love" bar / slide latch is not tight and comes loose. So I am looking for a way to secure it. Otherwise it is a nice piece!

Chinese New Year is to be ahead. Many models of colorful blouses are very pretty, which is suitable, we use it sometimes. Blouse woman of character will be very fit Dragon Chinese New Year.Chinese New Year Dress is a form of expressing ethnic identity. An expression that is with multi-faceted meanings about where the Chinese come from, who they are and who they aspire to be. In ancient China, the manner of dress signified a person's social status.
The origin of the Chinese dress can be traced back to ancient clothing like two piece outfits, a long robe worn with a sash, and an outer jacket.Chinese New Year Dress is a mix and match of the simplicity of the early clothing and the contemporary fashion. Embroidery is a commonplace on Chinese New Year Dress for both men and women. Many of the designs on the New Year Dress are good luck signs or mythological scenes. Chinese New Year Dress for women ranges from cheongsams, qipaos, mandarin blouses to jackets and pants. For men, Mandarin shirts with Mandarin collars, Dragon shirts, Kung Fu suits & Chinese coats are some of the famous Chinese New Year Dresses.
The blouse is made of pink Thai silk with floral pattern. Three chinese hand-made frog buttons are decorated on the mandarin collar, while another six buttons are labelled on the front side of the blouse. The length of the blouse is to the thigh, and it looks like the upper outer women garment in Qing dynasty.
You might not have noticed many fashion trends in childrenís wear but they are there and as much for boys as they are girls. We went along to some of the hottest labels runway shows for their kidsí collections and were blown away by the attention to detail and styling put into clothing for our little ones.
The boy's fashion shows were incredibly successful and you will pleased to know there is something for everyone in the style stakes.
Not all little boys want to play in the mud, some of them have style from a young age and this was seen in many shows. Alongside causal ërough and tumbleí clothes there were sixties skinny jeans, long wool coats and plenty of colour. We are huge fans of the tailored clothes and you will be surprised by how many young men are seen swapping t-shirts for collared shirts and ties and suit jackets this year.
Anything retro will also go this year; drainpipe trousers, snappy tailoring and leather jackets are all whatís hot in young fashion. On the casual side of things, jumpers and jogging bottoms will see blocks of colour for a far funkier edge.
If your boy is a little older, you might find their inner fashionista is far more developed. Get to the root of what he wants by taking a look at what this yearís runway shows have to offer. Hip-hop and athletic gear are all popular choices but fashion can be hugely influenced by interests in sports, music or the arts. Donít embarrass your young man by attempting to dress him like you did ten years ago!
Boys fashion can be very similar to menís trends of the year. A little denim shirt or denim jacket will be bang on trend.
If you're looking for kids' clothes, you can buy now pay later at Ellos, where you'll find trendy clothes for all ages, shapes and sizes.
The only word for this season's big earrings! Hoops, chandeliers, bohemian styles. They all need to be big and bold as the earrings above from Louis Vuitton.
Asymmetrical necklines were everywhere during the fashion week. Gucci (above) for Lanvin, Prada, Valentino and Lagerfeld, the asymmetrical look has been incorporated into everything from evening gowns to casual tops.
Pakistan Fashion Dress make new inspiration and it's good. Fashion designer Hilary Alexander finds the designers in Lahore are inspired by their land's rich history to create vivid and vibrant clothes. I was going to Pakistan Fashion Week, the two 'b' words were invariably top of the conversational agenda – bombs and burkas.
I met two full hijab and niqab wearing women in Anarkali – the bazaar named for a slave-girl supposedly buried alive by being bricked up in a wall by a Mughal emperor; one agreed to be filmed by the Telegraph's video cameraman, "because you can't see my face anyway", and the other, shopping at an underwear stall in one of the alleys, told me that the silver, purple and gold bras and knickers were "a good souvenir of Lahore."

Recent items from the newsletter which may be of interest to Ringmer residents follow.
28/29 BRIGHTON AND HOVE BUSES (FROM 13TH APRIL) There is a slight reduction in frequency between Lewes and Tunbridge Wells in the early evening on Mondays to Saturdays due to the withdrawal of funding from East Sussex County Council. The evening frequency is improved to every half hour between Lewes and Brighton on Mondays to Saturdays. 143 LEWES - RINGMER - HAILSHAM - EASTBOURNE Timetable changes will to come into force on 20th April. Operating commercially daytime and with peak hour buses under contract to ESCC. Monday to Friday frequency retained (proposed originally to be reduced to two days per week). Extra shopping journey from Hailsham to Lewes after 0900. |
SOUTHERN RAISES DAYSAVE TICKET PRICES Last month's newsletter reported on the price hike for Southern daysave tickets, which have gone up to £17.90 for one, with tickets for up to 4 adults now costing £35.80 if bought from the Southern web site. (£2 for children) |
SOUTHERN RAISES DAYSAVE TICKET PRICES Just as it did last year, Southern has snuck in an increase in daysave prices, just after the other fares went up. A daysave ticket bought on the Southern web site in advance now costs £17.90 for one and £35.80 for up to 4. Children are still £2 each. DON'T LOSE YOUR FOOTPATHS, BRIDLEWAYS AND CYCLE PATHS It's always ominous when East Sussex County Council consults us about something. It's a clear sign that they want to cut it or do away with it altogether. So when they launch a consultation about how people use footpaths, bridleways and country parks and don't say why they are doing it, then we need to be worried. |
NEW TRAIN FARES Train fares have gone up. Here are some new prices (all without railcard discount) |
Southern Railway says that the new pocket timetables for the service from January 5th are now available at staffed stations. Southern says you can download the new timetables here. |

Photo by Jamie Sabau/Getty Images Copyright Getty Images Organization Profile Image: Miami University - Hamilton Show Caption Hide Caption Previous Next With the Washington Redskins being all but forced into changing their name, numerous people have come forward with possible alternatives.The Americans, the Warriors, the historically motivated Redtails and various other replacement monikers have been tossed up via social media. Grover Norquirst, the founder and president of Americans for Tax Reform, told BuzzFeed he'd like to see the franchise rebranded as the Washington Reagans.While there are countless names the franchise could go with, the people at Miami University suggested via Twitter they'd be willing to help out with the name-change process. After all, they have the unique perspective of having used the nickname for nearly 70 years before making a change. Hey @Redskins, if you need help finding a new name just let us know. #RedHawks — Miami Athletics (@MiamiRedHawks) June 18, 2014 Before the early 1930s, Miami University went by various nicknames including the Miami Boys, the Big Reds, and the Reds and Whites. That began to change in 1928, however, when a Miami student referred to one of the athletic teams as the Big Red-Skinned Warriors.By 1931, the Redskins had stuck as the university's nickname, and became the official symbol of the school's athletics program.However, in the early '90s the nickname and term came under fire and was labeled "usually offensive", "disparaging", "insulting" and "taboo," given a racist 19th century view of race and ethnicity that was largely based on skin color.In mid-1997, at the urging from Dr. Myrtis Powell who went to the Oklahoma-based Miami Tribe for support, the Miami University Redskins officially changed their name to the RedHawks. Their mascot is Swoop the RedHawk. The NFL on Fox Twitter account poked at Miami a bit, referring to them as "trolling" Washington Redskins owner Dan Snyder and the franchise a bit. But MU pushed back in good fun. Who us? "@NFLonFOX: Miami University @MiamiRedHawks trolled the Redskins on Twitter and offered help finding a name: http://t.co/6p34uVWdEE"— Miami Athletics (@MiamiRedHawks) June 18, 2014 Several other colleges and universities have made the name change in recent years, most notably the University of Utah (now the Utes) and Southern Nazarene, an NAIA program that now goes by the Crimson Storm.At least one Tri-State school, Anderson High School, still uses the Redskins moniker as its mascot and team nickname.WCPO has reached out to Anderson for comment.Numerous other colleges and universities have made the decision to stop using names related to Native American or American Indian culture.Other Ohio high schools use names such as the Braves (Indian Hill and Talawanda) and the Indians (Cincinnati Country Day, Fairfield, Hillsboro, Norwood). However, those names haven't come under as much fire, largely because they're not perceived as playing on negative racial stereotypes. A Share A A A Share Article

Join Luik again as he fights the evil monsters and seeks a way to destroy them once and for all. Follow him to the hidden city of Ot where he gets a shocking surprise. But will good triumph over evil? Find out in The Lion Vrie!
Dec 4, 2010
As Luik discovers his true history, his friends Anorra, Brax, and the rest of the Dibor stay together as they find the secret behind the Lion Vrie? The Lion Vrie is better than the first! It is more interesting, and more capturful(not sure that?s a word) I highly recommend it, and if any of you are lovers of fantasy, then you?ll probably like this. --Vrenith
Nov 8, 2010
The Lion Vrie, written by Christopher Hopper, is the second in the White Lion Chronicles. It is an allegorical christian fantasy fiction that contains many moral developments. It takes place after the great battle which submitted most of Dionia to Morgui?s control. Luik is taken to Mount Dakka, a mountain fortress, to recover. After he has healed, he sets out to Ariel?s now barren ruins to search for the missing Dibor. There, he instead finds Anorra, and they return to Mt. Dakka. At that point, he organizes the inhabitants to fortify the city further to prevent Morgui?s destruction to continue. Luik receives a mysterious summons to the city of Ot, and he and Anorra embark on a quest to find the city, as well as the Knights of the Lion, the Lion Vrie, which may be Dionia?s only hope in defeating Morgui. The book is written much better than the first. Although the book is a bit slow, there are some very interesting morals being introduced all throughout the story. The use of Dionian language is reduced quite nicely, eliminating much confusion. Morals discussed are friendship, loyalty, honesty, honor, and all the other frequent morals of a medieval society.
Sep 3, 2010
After reading Rise of the Dibor I didn?t really think I would like Lion Vrie? Well I was wrong, Lion Vrie is an original story about the Dibor, Fane, The Dwarves of Ot, Annora, the Lion Vrie, and The Almighty. In the sequel to Rise of the Dibor, life is grim? Morgui has won the battle, Athera?s men are fleeing, women and children are missing, friends have fallen or are missing, Ragnar is dead and it seems as if the Lion Vrie and The Almighty has turned their backs on the people of Athera. Who will lead? Who is alive? Where to go? Who to trust? Does Ot have the answers? Where is The Almighty? What is Morgui up to? This book had a good pace through out, the plot was good and fairly original, and of course Christopher Hopper created an epic and awesome world. It was so good that I felt as though Christopher Hopper wanted to show off his world in this book. There was a lot of travel and discovering of new things. There was one downfall to the book. I?m sure I?m in the minority here but I don?t like romance. Whenever Luik and Annora were in the same room I would most likely stop and roll my eyes at all the romance. It was just to much romance. Over all this was a great read that I will be re-reading when I get the chance.
Jun 25, 2010
The Lion Vrie starts with with a hurt and tired Luik, as he tries to reach the charred city of Adriel, and the loved ones there. But his journey is not to be as he hoped, he is called to go to the thought mythical city of Ot. But even as he goes, Morgui threatens to overrun all, and the living to see the dawn is no sure thing. What will happen? Will he live to see his love? And what of these portals? Will the other Dibor, with his brothers, survive the onslaught? Read the book to find out!
