REPORT 1

Hello from Lanna, the North of Thailand, the city Chiang Mai.

Hi everybody. I'm Jim Messenger from Canada. I live in Thailand's Northern city, Chiang Mai. I'v lived here 15 yrs.

After years of teaching English I've returned to my first love: the Arts.

THAI ARTISTS SHOW ABROAD
Now I'm putting together artists from here, Burma and Laos I want to show abroad.

THAI TOURS THE WEST
I'm working with a theatre group to toru schools and bring a Thai/Western Theatre productin to the West.

TOUR/SHOW IN ASIA
Likewise I invite any performers and artist who want to show in The East, to contact me. Perhaps I can help you fulfill your dream

FESTIVAL
Finally Chiang Mai is an ideal location for an internatinal arts festival, somewhat on the lines of Montreal, which has 5 months of festivals strung together.
My simple idea is to transpose all those performers to Chiang Mai and create an international arts festival. Care to come along for the ride?

Jim Messenger
Chiang Mai.

Jim,

I still can't believe you found the purple AMP card in Laos, and that is what brought you here. That makes my day.
