Ramzan Hakamali

Cha Cha, Elvis & Delilah Ramzan Hakamali

Cha Cha is a trademark of Britain, just like Rolls-Royce. Cha Cha is special, or so he thinks. He was born in Uganda but his parents originate from India - actually Pakistan, as that plot of land ended up on the other side after the partition of the sub-continent. His initiation was in Kenya, where you all stood before the start of a movie to show respect to a lady on a horse. It was our Queen, of course, and has been Cha Cha's queen all his life. With a dramatic upheaval from Uganda, courtesy of self-styled Field Marshall Idi Amin, and ending up in Wales, Cha Cha finally settled in Woking, England. For him to be living in this land of the free quite often feels like a free-for-all. But this new-found home has given him the privilege of sleeping in peace and knowing that when he wakes there is no military overthrow. This country is a benchmark for all others to admire, for its generosity and accountability. With these kind words, I assume someone might read this little book . . .
