How are you? sorry to keep silent for here. I quite busy, just sent you one form for research, the interviewee just free and she came to Songkhla province for trained people that from Yala, Pattani, Narathiwat and Satoon. I guess, they came here for better safe. It better than meeting somewhere in three provinces now. The host had to save people from sensitive situation after bombed in C.S. hotel in Pattani. Meanwhile I have to do another work for survive and prepare for thesis in the same time. quite messy too.
Here, my town is in rainy season, so bored, could not go somewhere easy and not comfortable.
How about you? I wish you are happy and healthy. Oh you are so pretty.

Nice to meet you in this network of people who are working towards conflict resolution, peacebuilding and development. As you have excellent insights into practical grassroots peacebuilding, I think that I could learn a lot from you too. We could also help each other by exchanging and sharing information, insights, and learning. If possible we could explore possibilities of collaborating works.
I look forward to keeping in touch with you and hearing from you soon.
Warm regards,
Bobichand
