These 2 weeks, I finally understand what a leader means when he/she says tt he/she is not freed up to do other things, if his/her people don't stand in the gap.

These 2 weeks, despite the intensive fieldwork, I am still freed up to deal with accounting issues, all thanks to 2 great person, Shi Li and Yin Chian. Because they handled and covered my part, I could look into issues that are critical to the FS. We need more people like them..

With SL's pull out today, I can't help but be greatly saddened. She is just like another Mitch, an endangered species.
