seven international conferences on disaster
mangemnet.Recently we organised a sucessful
International Symposium on "Science,Society and
Governance in Tsunami Disaster". You sugested that
you wanted to send a paper for that Conference but I
did not receive any paper. Now we are publishing the
proceedings of thia successful Symposium. You may

present a paper in the workshop being organised by

I am going to attend a conference in Washington from
June 28- July,02,2005. If you kindly arrange and
provide provide me accomodation for four days in

break my journey in Amsterdam and present a paper in
