It does give us pause for thought, about how global the problems are. Sigh.<BR/><BR/>Dr Dan is just amazing and has boundless energy and ideas and keeps us motivated in working for our shores. Even though he's so far away, he is so close at heart to Chek Jawa and to us.<BR/><BR/>We miss him and you and the US team. Hope we can do another shore trip next year?Ria Tanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09770926654830427210noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8110737299038469570.post-67520996506094630132008-07-28T08:33:00.000+08:002008-07-28T08:33:00.000+08:00Ria and Team Seagrass--great to see an upgate on C...Ria and Team Seagrass--great to see an upgate on ChekJawa after my visit in March made me aware of issues impacting sea life. I learned so much from you, Dr. Dan and many others which lets me see my local estuary and mudflats in Beaufort, NC, Us with better perspective. Rachel Carson Reserve Estuary is a good parallel to ChekJawa. I participated in a survey last week here looking at impact of visitors to our estuary/mudflats and the trash and debris from visitors and nearby activites impacting local waters. Your survey efforts will hopefully raise awareness of the value of Chek Jawa and the need to preserve the area and those similar. I was able to see the building interest in environmental issues among Singaporeans while visiting there. Thanks again for what your group helped teach me and our group. Dr. Dan said I would meet singular special people in Singapore that would surprise me with knowledge and activism--he was correct.<BR/><BR/>Best Regards<BR/><BR/>StanAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8110737299038469570.post-67082474416010570952008-07-21T04:00:00.000+08:002008-07-21T04:00:00.000+08:00Ria,Spectacular!
