Hadish
Hadish loves his country very much. As he talks about the beauty and riches of Eritrea, it is clear he feels it would be much too dangerous to return in the current political climate.
"I was very lucky, because I managed to survive here in Malta - the rest of my friends that were detained with me [in Eritrea], some lost their life; others no one knows their whereabouts."
Hadish will not rest until there is stability in Eritrea but he is patient. Until he can return, he does what he can to support his family, he looks out for fellow nationals and he works tirelessly to raise awareness about the problems asylum seekers are facing in Malta.
His experience of being detained as an asylum seeker shocked him, but the reactions he has encountered since he was released have troubled him even more.
