Dear All This is in continuation to my earlier email of Saturday. I have received some enquiries and in that connection would like to clarify certain important points: 1. Afghanistan is indeed a war-ravaged nation and Kabul as a city, given the delicate political situation, has experienced and in all likelihood will continue to experience quite a lot of turmoil. It cannot guarantee in spite of its best efforts any form of safety. I have written in on behalf of the XRCVC only on request of the school. We cannot take any responsibility, even the slightest, for any form of safety. With regards why a woman trainer would be preferred, the answer lies in the fact that given certain sensitivities girl students and their families would be far more comfortable with a lady instructor. I thought it was self-explanatory but since this question has come up, one needs to respond. Only write in to us if you have thought through the risk element and the other factors. Best regards, Dr. Sam Taraporevala Director
