How Joyce Died for years without anyone noticed in London

Late Joyce

In December 2003, Joyce Vincent passed away quietly in her North London flat, most likely from complications related to asthma. The television was still on, her rent was being automatically paid, and life outside her door carried on as usual. Weeks turned into months, but no one noticed her absence. Neighbors assumed the sounds from her flat were normal, while mail and bills simply piled up, unanswered.

It wasn’t until January 2006—over two years later—that the truth came to light. After unpaid rent led to an eviction notice, bailiffs entered her flat and found her remains. The TV was still playing, and unopened Christmas presents sat nearby, frozen in time. Joyce’s story is often remembered as a haunting reminder of modern loneliness: how someone can live, and even pass away, in one of the world’s busiest cities without being noticed for years.

This show how people live lonely without interacting with other people, which is actually a negative thin to do . May her soul rest in peace.

Skilled workers leaving sub-Saharan Africa – IMF

Image
October 4, 2016 Skilled workers are leaving sub-Saharan Africa in rapidly increasingly numbers, producing a “brain drain” that causes long-term social damage, the International Monetary Fund warned Tuesday. The IMF said that the number of sub-Saharan migrants living in developed countries could increase from about seven million in 2013 to about 34 million by 2050. It described a “profound demographic transition” underway in the region as the working-age population grows faster than the total population — driving a migration boom. “Brain drain is particularly acute in sub-Saharan Africa,” the IMF’s latest report said, noting that it creates “welfare losses beyond those that are purely economic”. “The migration of young and educated workers takes a large toll on a region whose human capital is already scarce,” it said. “The migration of highly skilled workers entails a high social cost, as is evidenced by the departure of doc...
