Hi everyone,

Though GBNC's long-time friend, Dilli Chaudhary could not visit Boston this time around, he nonetheless had a productive time
in TN, GA and NY.

He's also in regular touch with a GBNC Board
member -- Prahlad KC. So that's good.

For the Kamaiya Mukti Movement in Nepal,
the next game-plan is make winning strategies to launch a Jagga Andolan
to pressure the government to give out
a piece of AVAILBABLE cultivable land to
each ex-Kamaiya family so that they can at least build a house of ther own and grow their own food.

Meantime, what follows is from a Japanese friend in New York City.
