At first I thought that is was funny comment, but then I thought it was innocent too. I can feel the pain for so many people who want to go out of their countries to do something, and to be something, but they are rejected by the consulate's in their country which is sad. I know many many families in India who just want to meet their children living in America and go there for few weeks or few months, but their visas are rejected with no good reason at all. Does US consulate think that these people will start working and earning money in US at the age of 70-80?? I have seen been millionairres industrialists who wanted to send their children overseas for education purposes only and there visas were rejected saying that “we don't think you are going their for studies, you want to work in US”, a rather stupid reason to give at times. I wish I could do something about it?
The comment on my blog reads as follows:-
“Hello MR. Bill Gates I am gonna tell you something. I like your music and dance....etc....
My name is Hurshid. will be 17 in november. I am In Uzbekistan. I have a lot tryed to go America and see there. This is my childhood dream. That's I have learned English. But I couldn't go. Because The Embassy (Consul) think that I am going to there to work not study. I have entered to the Consul with 15000$ to the consul believe that I am not poor and I think it is enough to go there.Second time I entered to there with 45000$. But they didn't let... I heard that if somebody from America pay money to someone(me), (will be sponsor for me) after that the Consul believe that I am going there to study, not to work. So you are rich man and all people, even Consul know about you. If you pay me to tuiton (will be sponsor for me) When I go America or here.
I will be very happy if you help me. I will be wait. Take care of yourself. I don't know English very well. If any mistakes sorry.
Bye.
