Nishat,
Thank you so much for getting back to me and also passing on our information. We are in the process of designing a tunnel tent per UNHCR and IFRC. We have a prototype done and are finishing that up in the next few weeks. Should I send pictures and specs to you or just forward that to the shelter e-mail you provided?
Thanks again,
Jeff Jacoby

Dear Jeff,
I am copying your message to the shelter coordination group that has been instrumental in providing shelter assistance post cyclone Sidr. It is possible that some of them may be interested, although mostly local materials were/are being used currently for shelter.
Best
Nishat

Nishat,
Unfortunately, nature has again reared its ugly head in the Indian Ocean; this time in Myanmar. We at Worldwide Shelters are ready to take action to help in any way that we can. We have shelter inventory in our warehouse in the UAE and we have shelters at our facilities in China and Vietnam that can be deployed. Let us know how we can be of assistance and to whom should we contact.
