Dear Prof. Sheung-Wai:
(1) Many thanks for your wonderful Christmas greeting msg (ATTACHMENT I)!!
It is the most elaborate one I have ever received. I am taking the liberty
of sharing it to our list members.
Dear E-Colleagues:
(2) I am sure that you will enjoy his greeting as clicking the URL listed i=
n
his msg.
Many of those advanced web techniques used in it can be utilized for
affordable global e-learning, e.g., animation for laboratory experiment,
music for audio instruction, etc.
(3) Many decades ago, one of my Japanese mentors taught me his word
=B3Imagineering,=B2 which is a combination of;
* =B3Imagine=B2 to create,
* =B3Engineering=B2 to put it into a practice.
(4) I hope you will stimulate your =B3Imagineering=B2 in the coming New Year.
Enjoy your wonderful holiday season and happy, healthy and prosperous New
Year!!
Best, Tak

Happy Holidays
And
A Peaceful and Healthy New Year
Yuletide 2002=20
We hope you and your family members are well and fine.
This year was fairly quiet with mostly preparation of our future
developments. However, Takeshi was invited for his talks to Cuba twice. Th=
e
first trip was in February and the second one was in November with Hisae.
Cubans are very nice and excellent people. They are eager and motivated to
work with us to create a Global University System in Cuba and the Caribbean
region. On our way back, we spent our Thanksgiving holidays in Cancun,
Mexico and enjoyed swimming at the beautiful beach.
Next year, Takeshi will be very busy starting with his delivering a keynote
speech at a large medical conference in Dubai, United Arab Emirates at the
end of January. He will then plan to visit Malawi, Africa, Japan, Finland,
Brazil, Cuba, etc.
Have a very wonderful holiday season!!
Hisae and Tak Utsumi
