Dear Victor:

(1) I have a strong interest from Tanzania in our GEWS/GUS projects.

(2) I then wonder if you can interconnect your “Africa Coast to Europe (ACE)” ultra high speed optical submarine cable along the west coast of Africa to the Eastern Africa Submarine Cable System (EASSy);

Dear Greg:

(3) If this is possible, would you be able to exchange your Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with EASSy people as you did with Victor (Reference (a) above) so that your GLOIRAD would be extended around the east coast of African continent beyond South Africa?

Dear Victor and Greg:

(4) Pls inform me of your favorable response on this possibility at your earliest convenience.  I will convey it to our Tanzanian colleague who may mentioned of it at the TICAC-V conference in Yokohama, Japan, 1 to 3 June, 2013.

Best, Tak
