Many thanks to all members of "IOBB-ibs-forum" for your votes that
made it possible for the project idea to compete and win the ARC
Contest Grand Prize of 20,000 US$. The project also won 3,000 US$ in
Round 4 of the contest.

The Award will certainly help in the advocacy of integrated biosystems
and keeping rabbits as colonies in enclosures by families (with mud
walls), by farmers with access to land (in open vegetated enclosures
and integrated systems with rabbits).

Dear Jacky

Congratulation for winning ARC Contest Grand Prize !
Indeed, you are a great man. I am very pleased and proud to have the
friend such as you, and I wish you will continue your activity for the
happiness of people in developing countries.

As for me, I am like to retire from UNU and enjoy the left time for
me, although I keep the close eye on the sustainable development, Zero
Emissions and IOBB.

Also, I wish that I could see you again in Sweden in the near future.

Please convey my sincere regards to  Agnes.

Best regards

Kenichi Sakamoto


PS
Please change my e-mail address to sakamot...@kzh.biglobe.ne.jp
For the  test, please send e-mail to  both addresses in UNU and this
private address.
