Default Re: Greetings from Bangkok ...

Roger,
Again, your efforts are VERY admirable!!! Will the Thai government not work with you on the front end of the projects through grants or the like? What about the universities providing grants to help these projects get started? It seems the nurseries will be the winners here along with the communities in that they will be receiving TC'd plants for sale. Won't they reinvest some of their money back into the project to help sustain it? Man, this project seems to be very exciting and I can see where it gets you pumping every day.
I am sure the "slum lords" are not very happy with what you are trying to do, so be careful!!!!
I know BigDog is making a trip this summer to your area, and if you get a chance, you need to try and get with him. He is a great guy and I am sure he would love to see what you have going on.
Best of luck to you and your project and be sure to keep us all up to your progress!!!!
