Dear Elena:

(1) Many thanks for your msg (ATTACHMENT I) in response to my following
previous list distribution;

> http://tinyurl.com/yrmgeo

(2) I am very glad to receive it, indeed, especially with your kind words to
help fund raising from the European Commission for our projects.

I anticipated to hear of your kind words when I visited your school in the
spring of 2005, instead of meeting you in Milan as you suggested at that
time.

> My wife, Hisae, and I express again our sincere thanks for your and Prof.
> Ferrari¹s extraordinary hospitality at that time.  Pls convey my best personal
> regards to Prof. Ferrari.

(3) I will ask your help for our various projects from time to time.

However, for the moment, I would greatly appreciate it if you can kindly
help Margarita.

Dear Margarita:

(4) Many thanks for your msg (ATTACHMENT II).

It was certainly my grerat pleasure to have met with you at the Board of
Directors Meeting of Project Globe Consortium for Continuing Professional
Development (CPD) on January 26th in Basking Ridge, New Jersey.

(5) I agree with you that the 7th EU Framework Programme is difficult to
decipher.

Pls visit the list distribution of the Item (1) above, and then find the
following in the Item (1)-(d);

(6) Pls feel free to contact Elena, too.  She is a veteran on the fund
raising ‹ specially from the EC, as previously raising funds and managing
them for various projects ranging from Bangladesh, Latin America and
Scandinavia, etc., to name but a few.

Pls inform me of the results of your findings.

Pls also inform me if we can be of any help to raise funds from the Japanese
government ‹ if you can go along with our GUS way.

Wishing you a very good luck to your Continuing Professional Development

> Dear Dr. Utsumi: I am searching a topic in the 7th EU Framework Programme as
> an umbrella to present a project on health training at a distance. As I see
> through your mails, it might be that you have identified some. I have read the
> subprogramm Health under the Spefcific Programme "Cooperation" and found none
> related to that but science either hard basic science or applied science also
> hard. I have gone also throug the "People" Spècific Programme and again that
> is science.

>     Through your mails, although I have to confess that I do not quite

> related topics. Could you orient me on those programmes?
