Dear All,
As some of you are already aware, a Focal Point Training for production of 
DAISY Digital Talking Books was held recently in Colombo, Sri Lanka. The 
training was held from 23 to 28 August 2004. A total of 14 trainees 
participated in the training. They represented different organization working 
for the welfare of Visually impaired persons in Sri Lanka. Seven of them were 
visually impaired. 

Miki Azuma from Japan, Prashant Ranjan Verma and Santosh Khare from India were 
the trainers. Mr. Dipendra Manocha Manager of the DFA Project arranged and 
co-ordinated the event. 

A forum called DAISY LANKA has been created and it will be the resource center 
for Sri Lanka. Mr. Anthony Bernard is the President of DAISY LANKA. 

We can now hope to see DAISY Books coming out of SL as well.

Regards,

Prashant
