'The power of the demons was stronger than the will to live': Mummified mariner's haunting tributes to his dead wife are found along with fading photos that provide clues to his life


  • Manfred Fritz Bajorat, 59, found off coast of Barobo in Surigao del Sur
  • A letter to his late wife was uncovered as well as old family photos 
  • Decomposing body was near radio telephone as if he was trying last call
  • Dry ocean winds, hot temperatures and salty air helped preserve his body 
  • It is unclear what killed Manfred or how long he has been dead

Manfred Fritz Bajorat, 59, whose body was discovered by two fishermen, wrote a thirty two word memorium his beloved wife Claudia, who died from cancer aged 53 on 2 May 2010.
'Thirty years we're been together on the same path. Then the power of the demons was stronger than the will to live. You're gone. May your soul find its peace. Your Manfred,' it read.

Mr Bajorat's body was found sitting near to the radio telephone as if he was trying one last desperate Mayday call to save himself when he died. 
Christopher Rivas, 23, a resident of P-4 Poblacion, in Barobo, was fishing together with a friend nearly 40 miles from the coast when he spotted the yacht, painted white and whose sail was broken from afar.
The 40-foot long yacht, named SAYO, had been cruising around the world for the past 20 years.
Inside the cabin, much of which was underwater, were found photo albums apparently showing his wife, family and friends, and clothes and tins of food were strewn all around. 
It is unclear how long Manfred, who has been identified thanks to paperwork on board, has been dead or what killed him - although authorities believe there was no foul play involved.

Heartbreak: Authorities are trying to establish the last days of Mr Bajorat, who appears to have left a tribute to his late wife, Claudia, on a shipping forum. Pictured left, she is also believed to be pictured in a damaged photo album found on board the ship where Mr Bajorat was found
Police are trying to retrace his last voyages and find the last people to speak with him

A friend told BILD that he last heard of him one year ago on Facebook for his birthday.   
Dry ocean winds, hot temperatures and the salty air helped preserve his body.
Police are trying to retrace his last voyages and find the last people to speak with him.
He broke up with his wife in 2008, who had been on his travels with him, and she died two years later of cancer. 
Photos from an album in the cabin have been uncovered, showing a family in happier times which testify to the life on land that Manfred sailed away from.
One image shows a wife, his daughter Nina, a friend and his partner, enjoying a picnic on a wooden table beneath sun dappled trees.
Another badly battered picture shows Manfred and a baby, presumably his daughter, with the words: 'Our first time with our little Button on the sea.' 
Other fragments are snapshopts of Notre Dame in Paris and Claudia and Manfred enjoying a drink at a Parisian sidewalk cafe with the wording above; 'Drink Coca Cola.'
Yet another shows more familiar landmarks of the French capital including the grave of the Unknown Warrior and the Arc de Triomphe.
Other pictures from inside the yacht show the state of chaos in which it was found - clothing, footwear, books, paper - among the detritus. And a touch of humour too in the sign screwed into a bulkhead: 'This is a swell ship for the skipper....but a hell ship for the crew.'
Authorities were still determining the cause of the death and have been in touch with the German Embassy for more information about the man.

In 2009 in Mallorca he met another world sailor called Dieter who told Germany's BILD newspaper: 'He was a very experienced sailor. I don't believe he would have sailed into a storm. I believe the mast broke after Manfred was already dead.'
His body was taken for an autopsy in Butuan City, the yacht was towed for a police inspection into the port of Barobo.
Following the post-mortem, a spokesman from the Barobo police station told MailOnline that there is no evidence of 'foul play'. 
'The doctor believes that the man died of natural causes, and there is no evidence of foul play,' he said. 
Police spokeswoman Goldie Lou Siega in the Philippines said; 'We have no evidence of a second person aboard and no weapon was found on the yacht.'

Dr Mark Benecke, a forensic criminologist in the city of Cologne, told BILD: 'The way he is sitting seems to indicate that death was unexpected, perhaps from a heart attack.'
The German embassy in Manila is working with local officials to trace his family in Germany. It is believed he has a daughter called Nina who works as the captain of a freight vessel.
Manfred had crisscrossed the world's oceans in 20 years at sea, clocking up over half a million nautical miles.
He sailed the Atlantic, he sailed the Pacific, he sailed around the Caribbean, the Indian Ocean, the Mediterranean, the Agean and, as a younger man, the waters of the Baltic bordering northern Germany.
Not all of it was done on his yacht: he was aboard the freighter Hyundai Renaissance on August 1 2008 when he crossed the equator en-route from Singapore to Durban, south Africa. 
A certificate found aboard his shattered yacht showed he had adopted the nickname 'Tiger shark' to mark the event - a milestone in the lives of all mariners.
He posted regular updates on his Facebook page of his travels on the 160,000 pound yacht.
Martinique in the Caribbean was one of the favourite places visited by himself and his wife, Claudia, the place where she was buried after she passed away in 2010.
Manfred came from the western German Ruhr region. According to German media reports, he hated that hard winters of his homeland and took to the seas to find warmer climes. 



Ser socialista es vivir en un error y pecando


El PSOE desde su creación hace más de 130 años no ha dado ni una a derechas, pero tampoco a  izquierdas. Es un partido de rebeldes sin causa que solo han hecho MAL, mucho mal a España. Si traemos toda su  historia a los últimos años, cierto y verdad, que para nada ha mejorado, solo que de homicidas políticos han pasado a ser asesinos sin guantes. Zapatero y Pedro Sánchez fueron elegidos por barones fracasados "No soy yo, ahí tenéis este par de tontos que uno hará inmaculado al otro y viceversa.  Pero si observáis siempre han sido los señoritos andaluces y sus lozanas quienes los han nombrado. Andalucía era la  última y Andalucía es la última en todos los índices habidos y por haber. Nunca ha ganado el socialismo en Andalucía, ha ganado y ganará el PER/socialista, la peonada -cerca de un millón de votos- Nací y vivo en Andalucía, pero no soy andaluz, no reconozco a la Junta de Andalucía ni a sus inquilinos de palacio. Zapatero, políticamente, muerto y bien enterrado como historia que los es lo voy a dejar para comida de los buitres. A Pedro Sánchez le vamos a prejuzgar. 
Pedro Sánchez, no ha sido ni concejal electo en el espectro político español. En cambio, el y sus pajas mentales, busca posiciones para ser Presidente de Gobierno del Reino de España y tampoco es monárquico. Eso de doctor en Economía y Profesor de Universidad, nada de nada. Económicas -aunque solo consta hasta tercero y ayudante de una asignatura....900 euros/mes, por cierto. Lo que si es cierto es que era el maletero de Pepiño Blanco.  Su primer error fue   acudir a los debates en TV con Pablo Iglesias y Albert Rivera cuando ya era pública la ausencia en ellos de Mariano Rajoy. En estas condiciones, la confrontación de los tres parecía una pelea por el segundo puesto y no una batalla dialéctica por el título de candidato real a la presidencia del Gobierno.
El junto a la dirección del PSOE nos quisieron hacer ver que las elecciones generales las había ganado la izquierda. No veo al PNV -partido más derechista con representación en el congreso- o a Democracia y Libertad (exCiU) y.... computando con la izquierda. También es cierto y verdad que se venden al mejor postor, pero España no paga traidores.   Tampoco veo a Podemos colaborando con la izquierda socialista, para mi son anarquistas trepadores. Por  tanto la Izquierda ha sufrido el mayor batacazo de la historia sin tener en cuenta el de la anteguerra. 
Otro tremendo error de Pedro Sánchez, cuando acepto el encargo del Rey para formar Gobierno , fue creer que Mariano Rajoy tenía una mayoría en contra (lo cual parecía cierto) y que el PSOE la tenía a favor (lo cual no estaba probado). Porque en esta fase ya se vio que Podemos tenía dos objetivos: uno, formar y tener el control total del Gobierno y segundo su objetivo era devorar espacio político del PSOE desde el principio y en el más breve plazo posible. 
Ahí fue cuando saltaron las alarmas  en la sede del PSOE y se arrodillaron al poco inteligente catalán y Jefe Ciutadans para evitar el cuerpo a cuerpo con Podemos, tanto en el ámbito cordial como en el guerrero. Cabe decir que, a esas alturas, Sánchez ya había despertado de su sueño y empezó a tomar conciencia de la realidad. Y lo que vio fue que estaba en un callejón sin salida. Sus compañeros lo mandarán a los buitres que, posiblemente, ya se lo hayan engullido.  Zapatero fue en calidad de rico y este de obre administrativo en una empresa dedicada a la explotación de saunas gays.

Sin ética confundimos Lo bueno y lo malo, lo correcto e incorrecto, lo obligatorio y lo permitido. Podemos`16

Cierto es que no podemos o  más bien no debemos parar  avance de la digitalización, de la necesidad de escuchar, de dar mayor participación al oyente, al liderazgo motivado, al aprovechamiento del talento, del desarrollo tecnológico. Pero también hay mayores desafíos a los que se enfrenta la Humanidad, diez retos que tenemos pendientes de resolver: La educación, los espacios medio ambientales, la salud, la ciber-seguridad, la energía, los alimentos, el agua, la pobreza y los desastres naturales. Hasta ahí solo son nueve. El décimo, el más grande y el suma importancia, es la ética.
La falta de ética es uno de los grandes males de la sociedad actual. ‘Lo que es’ cada vez está más alejado de ‘lo que debe ser’. Lo bueno y lo malo, lo correcto e incorrecto, lo obligatorio y lo permitido cada vez es más confuso. La ética, como principio que rige el comportamiento y las relaciones humanas, es un concepto difuso. Las normas no se cumplen y las acciones son contradictorias, a veces malvadas.
La locura económica que hemos vivido en la última década puso de manifiesto, sobre todo, que fuimos víctimas de esa gran carencia. Y que seguimos siéndolo. La mayor parte de las causas que provocaron la gran depresión tienen su origen en el ejercicio de un capitalismo voraz -NO LIBERAL- y falto de principios que, al entrar en crisis, generó situaciones atroces y devastadoras. De qué ética estamos hablando cuando estalla la burbuja financiera e inmobiliaria, en las prácticas usureras de bancos, eléctricas y empresas de telecomunicaciones, en la corrupción generalizada en las administraciones, en el pago de comisiones, en la evasión fiscal, en el manejo de dinero negro, en la economía sumergida, en la utilización de información privilegiada para enriquecerse, en el ‘dumping’ social… O en realizar promesas electorales siendo consciente de que son imposibles de cumplir. ¿Cómo se puede votar a un partido que, de entrada, el votante sabe que está mintiendo –populismo soviético-?

Decía Alberto Camus que un hombre sin ética es una bestia salvaje soltada a este mundo y lo nefasto, por desgracia, para la Humanidad, es que ese tipo de personas predominan y subiendo.

En Albania presentan los telediarios bellas mujeres "al desnudo" para ganar audiencia

La presentadora Greta Hoxhaj, de 24 años, posa antes de presentar las noticias en la cadena Zjarr TV, el 14 de enero de 2016 en Tirana
La presentadora Greta Hoxhaj, de 24 años, antes de presentar las noticias en la cadena Zjarr TV.

En Albania, los comunistas, presentan los telediarios bellas mujeres a lo Rita Maestre para ganar audiencia
En su ofensiva para ganar audiencia, una televisión privada en Albania decidió que los informativos los presentaran bellas mujeres con el torso casi desnudo, apenas cubierto por una chaqueta desabrochada que deja entrever un busto generoso.
Frente a una feroz competencia, el propietario de Zjarr TV, Ismet Dristhi, decidió "desnudar" la información con el objetivo, a su juicio, de aproximarla a la verdad.
"En Albania, donde los poderes políticos manipulan las noticias, la audiencia necesitaba un medio que presentar las informaciones tal y como son, al desnudo", explica Drishti, un exdirector de teatro y periodista.
De hecho, estos informativos difundidos por cable y por internet han hecho que la audiencia "no pare de aumentar", asegura el propietario de la cadena, quien planea ampliar este modelo a ediciones en inglés y en francés.
"No vendemos sexo, reproducimos la actualidad tal cual. Es a la vez simbólico pero también una buena publicidad", estima Drishti.
Para la presentadora Greta Hoxhaj, de 24 años, trabajar ligera de ropa representa un verdadero atajo hacia la gloria.
"Trabajé duro durante cinco años en una televisión local, donde pasé desapercibida", explica esta estudiante de Derecho y Psicología que disfruta de la fama recién conseguida.
Greta Hoxhaj presenta las ediciones informativas en Zjarr TV ligera de ropa y "no lamenta nada". "En tres meses, me convertí en una estrella", señala esta joven alegre y desinhibida.
Actualmente, la presentadora estudia una oferta de empleo en Sídney, donde realizaría el mismo trabajo para una cadena australiana.
Cada noche a las 19.30, Greta, seria y aplicada, presenta las noticias como si no ocurriera nada, desnuda bajo una chaqueta preferentemente cikir salmón y con un escote estudiado al milímetro.
En su día a día, la joven se viste como todas las chicas de su generación. El desnudo es "sólo para la televisión, para las noticias", afirma.

Greta remplazó en este puesto a una estudiante de 21 años, Enki Braçaj, cuyos exuberantes pechos le valieron un gran reconocimiento en los Balcanes, incluso en las regiones donde no se habla albanés.

Oficialmente, Enki se marchó porque estaba descontenta con su salario pero, según sus compañeras, ella consiguió un puesto de modelo en una revista de moda.

Greta, que sueña con "hacer carrera en el mundo de los medios de comunicación y de la publicidad", no se preocupa mucho de los comentarios negativos que su actividad generó, principalmente en las redes sociales de Albania.

En Albania, un país de cerca de tres millones de habitantes, de mayoría musulmana, y donde la sociedad es patriarcal y tradicionalista, las críticas fueron mixtas.

"Es lamentable que acepten una cosa de este tipo sólo para estar en televisión", se quejó un internauta. Otro televidente lanzaba comentarios sobre la talla del busto de las presentadoras, mientras un tercero calificó el formato como "un acto sexista y repugnante".

Para Greta, estas críticas importan poco "Estas reacciones no me afectan", dice. "Tuve la valentía de hacer lo que hago y ahora soy una estrella", afirma.

En los círculos feministas, el programa no generó críticas y los periodistas fueron más bien benévolos.

"La desnudez no puede resolver la crisis que viven los medios, que para sobrevivir están dándole cualquier cosa al público", declaró Aleksandër Cipa, presidente de la Asociación de Periodistas de Albania.

El analista especializado en medios Leonard Olli, por su parte, no ataca a nadie. "Existe una diversidad de opciones y cada uno es libre de cambiar de canal", sentencia.
