Pakistan Link - Letter & Opinion to the Arab league; and other prominent south asian leaders in the Pakistani Islamic scholar, and the indian Peace Scholar collectively lit a candle http://www.pakistanlink.com/Community/2004/Jan04/23/06.html
Extractions: Dr. Akbar Ahmed and Srimati Kamala Had I known nothing about the history between India and Pakistan prior to this historic meeting, the standing room only audience comprised of prominent local and world leaders would have indicated to me the significance of the event. Amongst media personalities from C-Span, Voice of America, the National Press Club, etc., I noticed Dean Goodman of the School of International Service at American University; the mother of DC Mayor Anthony Williams; Ambassador Clovis Maksoud, former ambassador to the Arab league; and other prominent South Asian leaders in the DC area. The audience included prestigious leaders of various cultural and ethnic backgrounds as well as diverse religious backgrounds. Muslims, Hindus, Sikhs and Christians had gathered to hear the inspiring words of Dr. Akbar Ahmed, Pakistani Ambassador Ashraf Jehangir Qazi, and the Central Secretary of India, Wajahat Habibullah (a current fellow at the United States Institute of Peace) at this groundbreaking event. Kamala pointed to the music stand positioned in the place of the normal lecture podium. She explained that she wanted to set a musical and harmonious tone for the gathering. Her intentions were further illustrated when she, the Pakistani Ambassador, the Pakistani Islamic scholar, and the Indian Peace Scholar collectively lit a candle for peace. As the guest lecturer and employing his anthropological training and Islamic perspective, Dr. Ahmed then walked the audience through Muslim and Hindu history to illustrate the phenomenal examples of peacemakers stemming from this part of the world.

Extractions: I. Course Information II. Title: Comparative Literature: Studies in South Asian and Japanese Literature III. Catalog Description: Comparative literature is an interdisciplinary approach to the study of literature. Students will develop competancy in comparative techniques while looking at works of major authors of India and Japan. The course will focus on the overall theme of the role of the hero in society. Students will work with materials representative of various literary genres in an effort to place the concept of hero within the context of those two cultures. IV. Instructor: Ms. Susan Emerson Office: Colden Hall 135 Office Hours: MW 1:00_1:50 and 3:00_4:00 F 1:00_2:50 Office Phone: 562_1374 V. Rationale: Many courses emphasize the development of one culture through a series of historical and philosophical periods; comparative literature attempts to present a global view, highlighting the interaction of various cultures through trends in literary theme, style and content. Students are able to see how peoples around the world have influenced each other, as well as how and why certain movements have flowed in different directions for different societies. The societies of India and Japan are particularly interesting to look at because there are both contrasts and similarities that can be underscored.

October 1999 : Malaysian hotels rates, after a being the best regional value of 2 years are on the way up, previously overpriced 5 star Bangkok hotels are on the way down, and Singapore rates are steady. All rates simply reflect the over supply of hotel accomodation, especially in KL, and the higher optimism in the travel industry at this time as incoming tourist figures increase. Hong Kong is beefing up its tourist promotion. March 1999: Five to four star hotels in most capital cities in the region have decreased their rates significantly in order to attract the lesser numbers of business travelers. Smaller and boutique hotels have generally increased rates as they have less rooms to fill and are experiencing more regional travelers due to lower room rates.

Wegweiser Holi Festival, Providence, RI Not sure what to expect, I accepted an invitation to participate in the celebration of Holi: the Indian festival of colors; a welcoming of Spring and the triumph of good over evil. I joined a diverse group of about 50 great folks - young and old - who came from around New England and beyond. This intimate evening gathering was at the temporary address of the India Museum and Heritage Society in Providence. Holi is, among other things, an opportunity to make friends and forgive past transgressions. It is known for the liberal showering of Gulal (mild colors, in this case) and petals of fresh flowers.
