<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hi Andrew,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Thanks for the information on the workshop below. I
would appreciate if you'd email me a list of invited participants including
their contacts, countries and positions so that I can use this important
opportunity to conduct some interviews with stakeholders on
governments' progress of e-government ICT initiatives in the
region, challenges and opportunities. This time I'd like to have the
list as far in advance as possible, so that I can estimate the level of
effort and not miss out on any important stakeholders. I plan to
invite the workshop participants to take part in the interviews
and send out a questionnaire in advance for them to review
and complete if possible prior to or during the workshop. </FONT><FONT
face=Arial size=2>Let me know if you'd like me to prepare an evaluation form for
the workshop which I will administer, analyze and report back to you and CATIA.
</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I look forward to hearing from you
soon,</FONT></DIV>
