Dear List members,

Prompted by one GESO (Gambia Educational and Support Organization) member in Denmark soliciting an audience with co-members, I would like to cease this opportunity to request for an overall informational update on the current status of GESO from Committee members. Besides the efforts by Momodou Camara to send donated printing  machines to schools in Gambia a couple of months ago, little of current issues affecting  the oraganisation has originated from the Committee by way of information in many, many months. True, Committee members use their valuable time to attend to oganizational business, sacrificing what in effect may prove to be worth no while whatsoever. Yet their long silence and the resultant  torpor it generates is tantamount to dispensing a slow death to this most innocent of collective efforts by the entire membership. 

I am therefore, kindly extending a request to the GESO Executive Committee to find time to publicly inform list members (and non-members as well) on the current state of affairs of the Organisation. In particular, many members like myself, perhaps, would like to know about the current membership, subscriptions, projects/ideas, the efforts of Mrs.Satang Jobarteh to build a national branch in Gambia, and the matter of the printing machines mentioned above, etc.
Irrespective of our political affiliations, educational support in Gambia is a commodity for which there will be permanent demand; besides it appears to be an important practical counterweight to the volume of theory, also important, that fills up this space. So please, let us keep GESO going on.
