    I am married and have 3 builders. I have the experience of raising chickens and raising cows. I hope you will accept this. All of me will be together. I know that all that I have in my life is to visit Australia and walk on its land and spend the rest of my life no matter what it takes. Since 1992, I dream of Australia as the paradise of the earth. If I love a girl, I would love all this love. I am crazy about her and peace.

    The organization "Smile of Hope" represented by Yemeni journalist and social activist Issaq Qassem Ghulam, the organization's president, raises the threat of death and physical liquidation of Islamic militants as soon as we have carried out cultural and social activities with lyrics including a notice to Queen Victoria and a brief description of her life In Queen Victoria Park, Queen of Great Britain in honor of her .. Since then I have not been able to return to Yemen permanently because it was issued fatwa to waste my blood.

    Finally, I assure you that I am an atheist and I am not a Muslim. I am a man who does not believe in the occult, but I respect the rights of the other in this life.

    I hereby submit to you a request for a "humanitarian visa" through your embassy in the Arab Republic of Egypt

    Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.

    Isaac Kassem Ghulam
    The head of the institution
