KALLADA V. V. KUTTY

Kallada V.V. Kutty is my father. He passed away on 15th of July 2011. He died because of brain stroke. I thought he would live for another 10 years. His memory was still fresh. If he had any deterioration for his senses, it was his hearing, but not as an old man of 83. He was still having a normal hearing, according to me, because I never had to raise my voice while I was calling home from Dubai.

I have to tell everyday something about my father. Do not be annoyed if I write too much and being personal on this topic.

EMIRATES NATIONAL ID CENTRE IN RASHIDIYA, DUBAI

Nobody knows where is Emirates National ID centre in Rashidiya, Dubai. Google cannot even help you. It is around 2 kilometers from Metro Station 1 in Rashidiya. It is near Mirdiff City Centre. If you are travelling through Emirates Road, it is aerially opposite side of Mirdiff City Centre. Nearest Landmark is HALAWA SUPER MARKET.

HONOUR THE DEAD

This is my opinion. I do not care if someone refutes it. It is a practice in our country (Kerala) to keep the body in "freezed" condition for many days for the immediate relatives to reach. At least, if the death is because of reaching old age, their body should be buried as early as possible. This is the honour to the dead. If I die one day and my children (or grand children) are away, and if they are cannot reach, my body should be buried within 24 hours. In this case, I agree with Mr. Sukumar Azheekode.
