Dear Edwin:

(1) Many, many thanks for your msg with kind words (ATTACHMENT I below and the Reference (e) above), in response to the Reference (j) above.

(2) As said in the References (a) to (c) above, I am a son of an obstetrician (Reference (a) above), and my dream is to realize the reduction of womenÕs death at childbirth in Africa (350,000/yr) -- Nelson Mandela said ÒGiving birth is NOT to die!Ó (*) -- see the Reference (c) above — with use of ultra-sound diagnostic equipment in ambulance which can connect to a doctor in a town via high-speed wireless (see Reference (d) above (**)). You may ask JICA to provide you with those ambulances and ultra-sound diagnostic equipment, say, 10 of them in fully equipped.

(*) See the Reference (a) above for my fatherÕs saga/episode.

(**) This could be Long Term Evolution (LTE) or super WiFi at 67 Mbps — once this is established, it can easily be used for any other purposes, e.g., collaborative creativity with virtual-reality simulation models, etc.  As you may know, New York City is getting more public Òhot spotsÓ where high speed broadband Internet can be accessed at free of charge, in addition to the Bryant Park behind of the NYC Public Library.  This is the future trend of Internet worldwide.

This would be far superior to the demonstrations we did to transmit echo-cardiogram from Finland to Columbia University in New York, and from Manaus, Brazil (the middle of rain forest jungle) to the University of Michigan through DSL line at 384 Kbps.


(3) In 2012, we successfully conducted matchmaking between GLORIAD and ÒAfrica Coast to Europe (ACE)Ó ultra high speed (5 tera bps) optical fiber submarine cable along the west coast of Africa (Reference (f) above).  Subsequently, our African colleagues (even in the South Africa) can now connect to many higher educational and healthcare institutions and research organizations in northern hemisphere (Reference (g) above).

(4) We are now then forging ahead to hold our planning workshop for our Global Early Warning System (GEWS)/Global University System (GUS) project at the GLORIAD office at the University of Tennessee in Knoxville (UTK) as following the suggestion given from the US National Science Foundation — see the last page of the Reference (h) above.

We will then become eligible to encourage our African colleagues to apply independently to the PEER program of the US NSF/US AID joint program.

In the near future, we will proceed to get the Japanese ODA fund as mentioned in the last page of Reference (h).

(5) Pls feel free to contact me if you have any further questions and interest in our projects.

Looking forward to hearing your response,

Best, Tak
