FROM THE PHILIPPINES:
KARL GASPAR IS FREE
I just received IFDA Dossier 45. Thank you very much for continuing to
send it to me. The little paper continues to be a source of very
interesting information. Thank you especially for including me in the
News section. I am pleased to see my poem printed (editor's note: cf.
IFDA Dossier 45, p.80). Today I got released from prison after the
Supreme Court ordered it. So I'm finally out. Last January 31, I was
acquitted, but actual release required another decision. The solidarity
network has been very supportive. Thank you once again for everything.
Karl Caspar, Davao City, 9 February 1985.
FROM A THIRD WORLD RESIDENT IN CANADA:
The IE'DA Dossier is worth more than we could ever pay for. It is
informative, helpful and appropriate.
I am involved in helping churches and other organizations helping Third
World people at the village level. We are all volunteers, so please
accept my apology for not being able to make a financial contribution at
this time. I am also from a Third World country. IFDA Do.ssier is great.
It is bringing change to our world. Keep it up. Keep it coming, we can-
not live without it.
F. E. Lawrence, Toronto.
FROM ZAMBIA:
We are a very happy and contented recipient of your IFDA Dossier. It
keeps the Rural Development Studies Bureau's team of Researchers
informed and in "attendance" for its academic contribution on a
world-scale forum-take, for instance, Girvan's Adjustment via austerity:
Is there an alternative? in N045.
E. C. W. Skula, Lusaka.
FROM PAKISTAN:
I happened to read IFDA Dossier 45. I was previously unaware of the
publication. I found some articles particularly interesting, e.g.
on participatory technology development by J. Galvez Tan and Adjustment
via austerity: Is there an alternative? by N.P. Girvan. I would
appreciate very much if you could place me on the regular mailing list
of the Dossier, sending me a copy of every issue.
Dr. Nasim Baber, Is lamdbcui.
(Publisher's note: Like 315 other Third World scientists, Dr. Nasim
Baber now receives regularly the IFDA Dossier as a result of a
collective subscription taken in their name by the International Centre
of Theoretical Physics and the Third World Academy of Sciences, both
directed by Prof. Abdus Satan, 1979 Nobel Prize winner in physics.)
