Dear Ed:
(1) Many thanks for your msg (ATTACHMENT I).
Many thanks also for your invitation to Dr. MsiskaÕs following seminar at your
school;
ÒCapacity
Crisis for Service Delivery in Southern Africa: Opportunity to Stabilize
Societies with Information & Communications TechnologiesÓ
<http://www.friends-partners.org/GLOSAS/Global_University/Global%20University%20System/List%20Distributions/2007/MTI1782_01-14-07/Seminar-MSISKA111311%20copy.pdf>
Yes, I will attend it — it sounds very interesting, indeed.
Dear Alfred:
(2) If you will still be in NYC area on 1/25th before going back to your home
town, i.e., Freetown, Sierra Leone, you may attend this seminar — anyway,
you may know Dr. Msiska.
Visit ÒSouth Africa Capacity Initiative (SACI)Ó at <http://www.undp-saci.co.za/>,
and click ÒSACI Methodology: CODESUREÓ in the right column. This is a
wonderful document on capacity development

Dear Nancy:
(3) Welcome to New York!!
You may also attend this seminar. You may also meet Howard and his wife
— BTW, you may know her since she operated a radio station in Freetown,
Sierra Leone with the UN fund.
Dear Alfred and Nancy:
(4) Pls let me know the date, time and place of our mtg on 1/16th or 17th
— our Columbia University seminar will be postponed to 1/24th so that I
can have ample time on 17th.
Dear Pablo:
(5) Many thanks for your phone call the other day.
Many thanks also for your invitation to the workshop for the formation of
telemedicine group which is to be held in Morristown, New Jersey.
Pls let me know if I should attend the workshop on 1/25th also, in addition to
the one on 1/26th (Friday).
If I should attend the one on 1/25th, I have to figure out how to get to
Stevens Institute of Technology in Hoboken, NJ from Morristown.
Dear Harold:
(6) You may also attend this seminar — you can also meet with Ed
Friedman, too.
As I told you before, Ed was a good friend of President Jerry Hultin, while he
was the president of Stevens Institute of Technology, before he joined your
university.
You can report about the seminar to Jerry.
(7) I shall wait to receive tomorrow the draft of your proposal for your
Polytechnic University (my alma mater) to participate in our Global University
System project which we discussed in your office on December 18th.
Dear Heikki:
(8) During the Workshop on Global University System & E-Learning at the
TOBB Economics and Technology University in Ankara, Turkey on October 19, 2006 <http://tinyurl.com/wy5xz>, you told
me that you would expect to have a group of delegates from prominent
universities in South Africa to your Helsinki University of Technology in the
following weeks.
You then indicated me your willingness to introduce our GUS project to them for
their possible creation of GUS/South Africa.
I would greatly appreciate it if you can tell me more of their activities about
it since then.
Dear E-Colleagues:
(9) Pls feel free to attend Dr. MsiskaÕs seminar at Stevens Institute of
Technology in Hoboken, New Jersey, if possible.
Best, Tak
