Caleb, Thanks to you and the core team for all the contributions towards the achievements so far realised by the foundation and timely update/reminder. This, i believe will guide and streamline some of our recommendations and comments on various discussions. At an appropriat time, we may need a thorough understanding of the details involved and get registered. I believe it would also be good to get the Consitutution re-circulated to members for information.
I also want to believe that our region faces alot of challenges and for one to conlude that most of our problems are caused by laziness as the only major factor, then we shall have missed alot on the major issues contributing positively or negatively to our macro-economic/development situation/problems in the region. I agree that alot of these are concerns of the region that need to be addressed systematically. I note that the contributions through Palui, Science cafe and up coming get together are very critical for our progress and encouraging no matter how many people have so far been reached by such arrangements. The key coordinators of these arrangements are highly commended for the progress so far made. Every initial begining is important and i note that how such benefits can be spread further are part of what will form the strategies of the foundation.
