Hi Sidi, I join the rest of the crew in extending my hearty congratulations to you, the your wife and Fatuma. It always gives me proud to see young Gambian ladies excelling. I hope your daughter will be an inspiration to all hard working Gambian ladies. I wish her well in her new appointment with the US Foreign Service. To you Sidi, my i use this forum to also congratulate you for successfully completing your assignment as an executive director with the ADB. You have been a real role model and an inspiration and served the Gambia and Africa with distinction in such a demanding position. You have always been available whenever you are called upon despite your busy schedule. The likes of you are a rare breed. Thanks for all the publications you made available to me. This is cause for double celebration,(so instead of killing one bull as bro. Katim said, make it two). Congratulations to you and your daughter. God's riches blessings to your family in all your future endeavours. cheers Basil >From: "Katim S.
