Comments: I have surfed this site many times, but this is the first message I have left. I guess I will say a big hello to anyone who was in county from 95-97. I hope you are all doing well. I am living in Columbus (anybody is welcome to stay with me if they come visit our fair, mid-western city) and life is good.
This summer I got engaged to an RPCV from Cameroun, and we are getting ready to buy a house together. I am working for a non-profit economic development organization, and the work is enjoyable. Of course I still miss Togo.
For anyone who ever visited the Atakpame Maison, do you remember getting up on a cool, foggy morning to sit on the front porch, drink Milo and watch everyone going to work? This must be one of my favorite and most peaceful memories of Togo.
Peace to all of you.

Comments: Most NPCA Conference Events Postponed
Following is a message fom NPCA President, Dane Smith
-------------------------
Dear Friends of the Returned Peace Corps Community:
The attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon have been a terrible
shock for our nation, including our community. We believe it is important
for Returned Peace Corps Volunteers, staff and friends of the Peace Corps to
continue to convey their message of peace and positive engagement with the
developing countries. We had therefore hoped to continue with our
Conference in Washington DC, making necessary adjustments for security.
Extraordinary Tension in Washington
While our goal has not changed, the situation of uncertainty and the local
circumstances in Washington DC have forced us to reexamine the nature of our
plans:
--The situation in Washington is extraordinarily tense. The security
perimeter around the White House has been greatly extended in the last day.
Much of the area to be used by the Conference, including the Hotel
Washington and the Mall, the American Red Cross, Department of Commerce, now
falls within a greatly widened security perimeter. All persons entering the
perimeter have to show ID's and are subject to search.
-- Military Police manning HUM-V vehicles are on every street downtown,
including on L Street in front of the NPCA. Traffic is being directed by
the National Guard, and there have been frequent bomb scares and evacuations
of buildings. There have been statements from the Administration suggesting
that military action might occur during the period in question. There is
uncertainty about the availability of government buildings now scheduled to
host meetings.
--Despite a resumption of commercial flights, Reagan National Airport is
closed indefinitely. Many of our registrants were scheduled to arrive at
National. Reroutings and reservation changes are extremely difficult at
this time. More than half of our registrants are coming from far away. It
will be extremely difficult to ensure that even those registrants willing to
come could get to the city without difficulty.
--President Alejandro Toledo has reaffirmed his willingness to appear at the
Conference. At the same time the Secret Service has informed the Peruvian
Embassy that the presence of foreign dignitaries in Washington DC is not
recommended. The Peruvian Foreign Ministry is concerned about his security
and the logistics of the visit.
--The Conference would likely be occurring at the same time as large numbers
of funerals for those lost in the Pentagon attack. Some have expressed
concern that such a juxtaposition would be inappropriate. The festivities
usually associated with Country-of-Service reunions will not be appropriate
to the occasion and would need to be scaled back.
Postponement of the Conference; Volunteer Day and a Peace Vigil to Go
Forward
Under these circumstances, the NPCA Board and I have reluctantly concluded
that we have no choice but to postpone the Conference to an appropriate time
in the spring or early summer of next year. (President Toledo has indicated
his availability to come to a rescheduled Conference.) At the same time, we
are not abandoning our plans to convey our special outreach to the people of
the developing countries. We will go forward next week with at least two
events that convey our message of peace and service: these are Volunteer
Day on Saturday morning, September 22 and a Peace Vigil with country of
service flags that evening at the Washington Monument. Those participating
in these events will largely be RPCVs from the Washington
DC/Virginia/Maryland areas.
Suggestions for Registrants
Most of the planning has already been done for a Conference and much of that
planning will be applicable to the event that will be held at a future date.
We hope that as many as possible of you will decide to maintain your
registration for the rescheduled Conference. We will refund registration
fees for those who request it. However, it is important that you be aware
we have already sustained substantial costs in connection with the 40th
Conference, and the financial position of the organization would be
jeopardized if everyone demands his/her money back. We therefore appeal to
you to keep faith with us and to plan to come to our rescheduled Conference,
if you possibly can.
You should be able to cancel your hotel registrations without penalty.
Please let us know if there are difficulties with respect to those hotels
previously posted on our website (with which we have contracts).
We will be in touch with you as soon as possible about future plans and
registration fees. We wanted to get this message out as quickly as possible
so that you could reexamine your travel plans this week-end.
In peace and with great regret,
Dane Smith, President

Wayne needs more industry sites, EDC told
ATLANTIC BEACH -- Wayne County is running out of products to sell in the fast-paced, competitive game of
industry recruitment, consultants say. And it's time to build up the inventory.
The products are industrial sites -- land and vacant buildings the county can use to attract companies.
"You need sites in a hurry," said consultant Robin Spinks of Greenfield Associates. "There is very little product in
your inventory right now."
Ms. Spinks and Mary Lilley of Greenfield Associates in Wrightsville Beach have been taking stock of potential
industrial sites in Wayne County under a $10,000 study commissioned by the Economic Development
Commission. The consultants, who are often hired by companies to find sites, presented their preliminary findings
during an EDC retreat Friday. The weekend retreat was the first one by the EDC in three years. It was held at
Atlantic Beach, with 27 government, education and business leaders in Wayne County attending.
The consultants recommended that the county! prepare four types of sites to attract companies: one with 500 or
more acres, one with 100 to 500 acres, one with 50 to 100 acres and several sites of 5 to 50 acres.
The consultants found nine potential sites, all of which are vacant land:
Two are in northwestern Wayne, one with about 500 acres and another with about 200 acres.
One is south of Pikeville with about 350 acres.
Three are west of Goldsboro, ranging in size from 100 to 250 acres.
One is at Grantham with about 375 acres.
One is between Goldsboro and Mount Olive with about 130 acres.
And one is south of Mount Olive with about 100 acres.
The exact locations were not revealed to the public, because the study is still under way. No property owners have
been contacted, and neither the EDC nor the county commissioners have decided to act on the recommendations.
But those attending the retreat seemed receptive to the idea.
The sites would serve as alternatives to ParkEast ! Business and Industrial Park off Martin Luther King Expressway.
Economic leaders say different types of property are needed to attract companies that are not interested in being in
an industrial park or that may want to be in a park that has fewer restrictions than ParkEast. The sites could
become industrial parks, or they could stand alone.
"Economic development is selling," Ms. Lilley said. "You are selling product, and your product is your site."
The message of having industrial sites isn't new to EDC members, who have been told the same thing over and
over by state officials and by visiting company representatives.
But the problem comes with finding land suitable for industrial development and getting the amount of investment
needed to prepare it. Land with all the amenities that companies want, like sewer and water lines, highway access
and natural-gas service, is not easily found in rural Wayne, Ms. Spinks said.
The land should b! e close to utility lines. And most important of all, it must have fast access -- now, or in the future
-- to Interstates 95 or 40. All of the potential areas are close to existing highways or future ones like the future
U.S. 117 and the proposed U.S. 70 Bypass.
Companies also want to be away from residential areas, to avoid potential conflicts, Ms. Lilley said. Only about
one-third of the county has zoning, which means that in most of the county, people can build whatever they want,
where ever they want.
Many companies are reluctant to build a plant where residential development could grow near them, Ms. Lilley
said. They foresee neighbors complaining about noise, traffic or other problems. The consultants said the nine sites
are far enough from residential areas to avoid conflicts.
Some county leaders have pressed for zoning that would provide orderly growth and preserve potential industrial
sites. Without zoning, the other option to ! buy enough land to provide a buffer between the business and
surrounding property, Ms. Spinks said.
Then comes the problem of how to obtain the land. So far, the county commissioners have been the lead
organization in funding industry-recruitment projects. One possibility is for the county to buy the land like it did with
the back portion of the ParkEast Business and Industrial Park.
Ms. Spinks said another way may be to take out options. This works by the county paying a certain percentage of
the price of the land. The property owner gets the rest of the money when the property is sold to a company. The
property owner also agrees to let the county market the land to industry. Ms. Spinks recommended that the county
take out options for at least five years with automatic renewals.
The county could also obtain a letter of intent from the land owner guaranteeing the property's sale. But some
companies are uncomfortable with that, she said! .
Once the property is available for sale to companies, it must be prepared. Companies want land that is ready to be
built upon, Ms Lilley said. That means conducting surveys, preparing maps, soil tests and other preparations. It
costs about $50,000 to prepare each site. The county can get state grants to pay for it, she said.
But the bottom line, the consultants said, is that companies expect cheap -- or free -- land and buildings. And once
they own them, they want to be able to act fast to construct a new building or to move into an existing one.
"They're in a hurry," said Ms. Spinks. "And they want to be able to get it as cheap as possible."

Comments: FROM MR EDWARD YAO
AUDITING AND ACCOUNTING UNIT.
FOREIGN REMITTANCE DEPT.
INTERNATIONAL BANK OF AFRICA
LOME-TOGO.
Dear Flemal
I am Mr Edward Yao, the director in charge
of
auditing and accounting section of international
bank
of Africa Lome-Togo in west Africa with due
respect
and regards.
I have decided to contact you on a business
transaction that will be very beneficial to both
of
us at the end of the transaction.
During our investigation and audting in the
bank, my department came across a very huge sum of
money belonging to a deceased person, a foregner who
died on
november
1997 in a plane crash and the fund has been
dormantin his account
with the bank without any claim of the fund in
our
custody either from his family or relation before
our discovery to this development.
Although personally, I kept this information secret
within myself and partners to enable the whole
plans and idea be profitable and successful during
the
time
of execution.The said amount was USD$14m
(fourtheen million united states dollars).
As it may intrest you to know, I got your contact
through international business enquiry on
internate.
I beleive you will be viable and capable to champion a
business
of
such magnitude without any problem. Meanwhile all
the
whole arrangement to put claim over this fund as
the
bonafide next of kin to the deceased, get the
required
approval and transfer this money to a foriegn
account
has been put in place and directives/needed
information will be relayed to you as soon as you
indicate your intrest and willingness to assist
us
and also benefit your self to this great business
opportunity.
In fact I could have done this deal alone but
because of my position in this country as a civil
servant,we are not allowed to operate a foriegn
account and would eventually raise an eye brow on my
side during the time of transfer because I work in
this bank.This is the actual reason why it will
require a second party or fellow who will forward
claims as the next of kin with affidavit of trust of
Oath to the bank and also present a foriegn account
where he will need the money to be re-transfered
into
on his request as it may be, after due verification
and
clarification by designated bank account. I will
not
fail to inform you that this transaction is 100%
risk
free. On smoth conclusion of this transaction, you
will be entitled to 30% of the total sum as
gratification, while 10% will be set aside to take
care of expenses that may arise during the time of
transfer such as telephone bills ets, while 60% will
be
for me and my partners. Please,you have been adviced
to keep top secret as we are still in service and
intend to retire from service after we conclude this
deal with you. I will be monitoring the whole
situation
here in the bank until you confirm the money in
your
account.And ask us to come down to your country for
subsequent sharing of the fund according to
percentages previously indicated and further
investment,either in your country or any other country
you
may advice us to invest in.All other necessary
information
will be sent to you when I hear from you.I suggest
you
get back to me as soon as possible stating your wish
in this deal.
Yours faithfully,
Mr Edward Yao

Comments: Hey guys, love your page, gives me great hope and understanding about my prospective 2 yr 3mnth career. I have been to West Africa so I can fully comprehend most of what you are talking about, but what I wanted to know was: what are PCVs living quaters like? In Mauritania there were mud rooms and huts...in Ghana flats...what have you seen in Togo??
Thanks for you help

Comments: My grandfather to New York, from an unknown Africancountry in the 1820's. The name he used was Peter Froht. I understand that many people in Togo assumed German, or Germanized their names during the German Colonization. I am trying to establish connections in Togo, and would like to make contact with folks in Togo towns. Are there on-line directories, or is anyone in Togo on this site, who could check and see if they find the name Froht in any available directories or surname data bans. Thank you for any and all suggestions or help.

Comments: My name is Dudley Parkinson and I have recently started a tour company specializing in ecologically and culturally appropriate travel to West Africa. Through my work as a Peace Corps Volunteer in Cameroon from 1976 to 1978, several years as a trainer throughout West Africa, and a position as Associate Peace Corps Director in Togo from 1996 to 1999, I've come to love the region and the people I've met there. I also learned that much of the development work being done in Africa is counter-productive in that it often creates, rather than alleviates, dependence on outside forces. Often the only good I've seen come out of foreign development projects is the contact between peoples of different cultures. This interaction is not always positive, especially if it is imposed by Westerners or if the participants aren't prepared for the differences (and similarities) in their customs and values, but it can be a good thing for everyone involved
if all interests and perspectives are considered.
DreamWeaver Travel was created in order to allow Americans and others to experience the beauty and wisdom and dignity that lives in West Africa. To allow them to see and get to know at least a little bit of the daily lives of people who have a very different world view and perspective from the Western one. And, through providing this experience, to create a web of knowledgeable and concerned "Africanists" who could serve as advocates for positive change on that continent. We also hope to do our little part in sharing the wealth by leaving as much of the tourist dollar as possible with the local communities we visit and by helping local artists and craftspersons to market their art and craft.
In addition to offering thoughtful, responsible travel, DreamWeavers is also committed to supplying tours which are custom-designed to respond to each traveler's interests and capacities. We offer first-hand knowledge of some of the most interesting destinations in Africa and we will work with travelers at any level they require - from just some consultation to taking care of all arrangements in an all-inclusive package tour. Right now we're concentrating on only three countries - Niger, Togo, and Cameroon - because I have direct experience with the trips offered and the local tour operators and guides in these countries. As I become more experienced in organizing trips in the region I hope to be able to offer travel to other West African countries including Mali, Ghana, CAR, Gabon, and possibly Chad.
Please check out our web site if you've the time and inclination, and don't hesitate to contact us through any medium for more information, to offer advice, or just to chat.
Thanks very much for your attention.
Best regards,
Dudley Parkinson

Comments: Greetings RPCVS - I was in Togo 78-84 and would welcome a note from anyone who remembers me when I was young, tanned and fit.
But I am on a mission today. I have lost contact with Bill Ferguson AKA "Bafillo Bill", and would like to get in touch with him. I'm not the repo man - though Bill has probably gotten a visit from him from time to time as well. Bill was in Seattle when last I knew (early 90s) - and we shared a microbrew or two. If anyone has an email or phone for the notorious bevu of Northern Togo - please drop me a note.
I'm in Sacramento CA these days, work for a community college doing custom training programs for business and public agencies. Often have an urge to have some fufu and a BB - but then don't we all.

I come from the planet fufu, which is in another galaxy, and I am also a relative of the bumblebees.

Comments: I am in contact with my old houseboy from 1974 (he was about 10 years old back then) who desperately needs a job in Lome. He was just laid off from his old job in a shop where he was some sort of sales person. Because he has a wife and 4 kids, he is truly in need of employment and says he would do anything. I don't think he has any special skills although he was working in that shop, but he certainly is literate (writes beautiful French) and very intelligent (albeit unlucky). If anyone reading this has any ideas, please contact me by email and I will pass the message or ideas along to him in Lome. Thanks. I know times are tough in Togo for most people, but those of us with sentimental ties to our old friends there still hope that we can do something to help them out.

She chose Togo for her mystery country and is putting "clues" in a shoebox for her 2nd grade classmates to pull out and guess her country. From your website we printed all the photos and the "welcome to the fufu bar" page, plus the glossery (which she thought was hilarious). This is a really fun website! Thanks.

I hope to come my Motherland in 2001. It is truly in my heart, and deeply in my soul, my spirit.

Il contient les timbres du Togo émis à partir de son arrivée au pouvoir (1967) jusqu'à 1982. Certains sont oblitérés "premier jour" et l'album est dédicacé par le Président.La reliure de l'album est en cuir et les inscriptions ainsi que la tranche sont en feuille
d'or 24 carats. Les pages sont en papier glacé haute qualité, ornées des armoiries du Togo en relief.
J'ai réunis sur un "web-photos-album" 12 (douze)photos de l'album en question et je vous invite

Comments: To the person who signed him/herself as Saskia -- who are you and what is your connection to Gape-Kpodzi?
I recently got back from a month and a half back in Togo. Most of it was spent doing a rather b.s. research project (though I can't blame anyone but myself for that). It was well worth it in order to spend a week back in my village (Gape-Kpodzi) and have someone else foot the bill. Though it was sad to see that the situation in Togo has worsened even in the past three years, it was nonetheless wonderful to go back and see people.

Comments: What's up y'all? miato wo mi fouan? foutoui hoye!!!!
le fufu est bon, tres bon meme! tous ceux qui veulent aller au togo, faites tout pour manger du foufoui avec gbolan ou holan dessi ou meme avec de la "sauce claire" et rien que du poisson fume! hum hum enonye la! (it means mamamia!). Je surfais un peu avant d'aller me coucher et je suis tombee sur ce site baleze! Mon pays est le plus beau, le plus..., le plus tout quoi, je t'adore Togo cheri! (foufoui, faut pas etre jaloux toi aussi je t'adore...). For those who speak english and have visited my country I'm pretty sure you will not be able to forget it, it's like a small lounge but it's a blessed one even though it doesn't look like it. For those of you interested in having some togolese food after trying the fufu, try out some "djekoume" or some "kom" with hot sauce and fried frish or some koliko. I miss my family and my friend a lot and with God's grace I'll go back there next summer! But in the meantime, I'll here trying to make some fufu with mashed potatoes (it's tastes funny though...). Thanks for this site it's the bomb y'all, it's off the hook! I love it!
Pour les potes que je connais et que je connais pas qui vont visiter ce site, mawu ne yra mi looooo! Togo hoye!! (mina a prononcer correctement par les natifs!!-je plaisante, je sais tres bien qu'il ya des deracinnes!-c'etait encore une plaisanterie...)

Maurice Morrisette, you rascal, I remember you. I saw uncle Brian Rawlinson and Kathy Curran in SanFrancisco on St. Patty's day. Jim (Kokougan) Morrill will be back here in Charlotte soon.

Comments: I am 35 year old Ivorian based in Washington DC. I have just authored and self-published a book titled What Is Wrong With Africa? Myths & Truths. You may not believe it, but until you read the book yourself , I can assure you that What Is Wrong With Africa? Myths & Truths is the only book ever written that : 1- Truly and unequivocally exposes and addresses the TRUE issues about the present condition of Africa and her people 2- Dispels most of the myths about Africa’s problems and reality. 3- And offers effective and realistic long-lasting solutions to Africa’s ills. To order your copy which I will autograph at your request, e-mail me your mailing address and phone number at lgws@hotmail.com . If you reside in Washington DC area you can purchase the book at the following bookstores in Washington DC. -The House Of Khamit (right across Howard University) 2822 Georgia Avenue, NW Washington DC -Yawa Books & Gifts 2206 18th St NW I have written this book to create awareness and consciousness about the truth on Africa and the universal realities impacting on the daily life of the peoples of Africa. This book is… for all members of humanity without exception….. It will illuminate the African mind which is in desperate need of a mental revolution, to instill in the African man and woman, knowledge of self and of outside forces, love for self, pride in self, faith in self, pragmatism and discernment. It will also enlighten the non-African mind in dire need of knowledge of truth, that will instill in the peoples of every race, culture and nation outside of Africa, understanding, open-mindedness and tolerance necessary to eliminate prejudices, racism, bigotry, hatred, complex of superiority and supremacist behavior. I hope to count you among my readers. Peace & Love

Thanks for any help you can offer.

Next month (March 27th) I will marry a man born and reared in
Togo. I have searched the net for information regarding marriage
rites/wedding practices for Togo, but have been unsuccessful thus far. To
begin, information on Togo seems to be limited on the net, and to
finish, I'm impatient and have yet to fine tune my searching techniques!
I would like to learn of something to incorporate into our wedding/marriage which is
culturally based and symbolic of our union. I look forward to any and all suggestions!
Thanks MUCH in advance,
Melissa :)

I brought most of my djembes out here and we are using them in some of my classes. One of my professors referred to my talking drum as "that funny lookin' drum."

Does anyone know the whereabouts of Joy Greenidge (Plan - Sotoboua 1988)? I would like to hear from any former volunteers from 1986 - 1988.
Anyone still in touch with Togolaise in Sotoboua, Adjengre, Lama-tessi? I need some help in finding a few people and haven't had much success.

Comments: I came to Togo all on my own from cold and dark Sweden. The plan was to study law, but it's hard to do when there aren't any teachers around. Hope the strike is over and everything is back to normal down there. It's such a shame to see so many intelligent schoolchildren and students waisting their time because of a certain man who consideres himself to have "la force d'un destin". Great to see so many Togo-fans! Maybe that can help to break the country's isolation..?

I always thought I would return, for so much of my heart and soul was touched, even formed there. Special greetings go out to Bill Ferguson, Tom & Ruth, Todd Wells, Petit Kelly, Andy Winters, Nick Kulibaba and all the people in all Programs during those turbulent but wonderful years from 1976-1979.

Comments: Long time no type. I've recently changed jobs, and am now working as a Systems Administrator at Tetra Pak, an environmentally-friendly packaging company that has operations in 160 countries. (Can you say "travel"?) I will be going to Panama in November for a week to set up a network there. Ah, return to blessed humidity! Kellie (my wife, nee Porter) is doing fine as well, teaching French at a private school. We're currently remodeling our house, a 1920s bungalow in a historical district of Atlanta. A lot of sweat and a few scrapes, but definitely worth it.
Some sad news: I just got a letter in the mail indicating that my village chief has died. Togbui Sevi Amegnran-Adoh, the chef du village and chef du canton of Amegnran (Vo Prefecture) was laid to rest in August. If anyone else on this board had the fortune to meet him, you will remember him as a generous and jovial, but always regal, fellow. I had the great opportunity to see his coronation as a political chef du canton during my service, as well as attending the funeral of his mother. I will look back on my service and my meetings with him fondly.
Let's all take a moment of silence to reflect on the wonderful Togolese who we met and grew to admire -- especially those no longer on this earth.

Comments: Hi everyone! Just a note to let anyone who cares know that I've just returned from two-plus weeks in Niger and Togo and had an absolutely incredible time. I'm in the process of organizing a trip to Niger for the week before and after the millenium. Where better to be if the lights go out than some place where noone will even notice?!?! My one night under the stars of the Tenere Desert was worth the trip all by itself! Hoping to leave on December 27 and stay for two weeks. Cost should be around $1600 plus airfare. I'm also planning to organize trips to Togo and Cameroun, if anyone's interested. Check out my web site at . If you'd like more info on any of these trips or have any other places in West Africa you want to go and need help with, let me know.

Comments: Visited Togo last week with my wife, Allyn. It seems like it's all just as it was in the 70s and in 1985 when I was last there. But you can also see that Togo is going through some tough times. The Hotel de la Plage is gone (no big loss there), and everyone warns you not to go out at night in Lome! I went to Adeta and NDigbe where I served and was surprised to find that all the villages between Kpalime and Atakpame have electricity. But the sad thing is that the forests along that road are almost completely gone! As we came up the mountain to the Plateaux we had to stop due to a ceremony on the road praying for road safety. We stopped and got out on the mountainside - and the people still knew exactly who I was, 20 years later. It made me remember why I liked people in Togo so much. They like everyone and they never forget a face.

Comments: Hi everyone. The '99 RPCV Conference is coming up soon and I'd like to repeat my offer of a place to stay for the duration. I live about 40 miles or so from St. Paul, across the river in Wisconsin. Nice, quiet place to chill out or a great place for a Togo RPCV party if we can get it together. I found a great place for African foods in St. Paul, so we could try our hands at ignames and plantains and fou-fou! Either way, I'll see you at the Conference - look for the DreamWeaver Travel booth in the International Bazaar area.
A friend of mine in Togo is looking for Sheri Bruhn's address (either snail- or e-mail). Anybody out there know how to get ahold of her?
Best wishes to everyone! Hope to see you at the Conference...

Comments: Bonjour et salut mes amis!!!
It is with great pleasure that I recount my past 4 months
back visiting le Togo. The bicycling was fantastic and my
trip across Southern Africa (Namibia, Botswana, & Zimbabwe)
was utterly amazing.
My time in Togo was well spent with friends, family and an
unending stream of well wishers and buvette patrons. Ahhh,
the taste of a "Grand Lager bien tapper!"
At the beginning of Oct. 1998, I rode my bicycle up to Niamey
to get on a softball team for NUTS'98. To my dismay, the
current Togo volunteers didn't even know that there was a
softball tournament going on. So I was forced to journey by
myself to Niamey and find a position as pitcher on the PCV
Niger team.
After a warm up practice in 100 degree sun, we felt pretty
sure of ourselves and the team we had put together. This was
to be evident in the next 3 days of the tournament as we went
on to win game after game after game, and come up the undisputed
champions of the social division.
The Togo presence was felt and appreciated by all!!!
Besides the good news of the NUTS tournament, the other joy
I have to share with all is that the government has actually
repaired the ROUTE NATIONALE from Atakpame to Blita. It is some
of the most baby-bottom smooth tarroad you have ever dried
manioc on.
Well the stories could fill the entire site so I will sign off
for now and leave you with the news that the French are currently
building a HUGE barrage outside of Dapaong to forever(?) alleviate
the water problems experienced by the "Oasis of the Savannes."
Cheers for now and methloquin dreams to all.

Comments: FLASH FOT PROJECT REPORT:
At the Friends of Togo/Les Amis du Togo (FOT) board meeting on 4/23/99 the Project
Committee approved the following four new projects for funding. If you would like to
contribute, please send your tax-deductible donations to:
FOT
P.O. Box 9436
Washington D.C. 20016
For more information on these and FOT projects in general contact Ruth Reeder at:
rreeder@bellatlantic.net
1. Installation of Movable Manioc Graters & Presses, Dzogbepime (Ave)-$4062.
ASAFED is seeking funding to purchase and install two mobile graters and six
lightweight presses, and supplies to construct a shelter for storage of materials.
The traditional processing of manioc to gari is labor intensive. It is considered a
woman's task. This project would improve the efficiency of the process, improve
hygiene and promote the production of manioc. It would increase the revenue of the
village women. The village community would take charge of the project following
training. Contacts: M. Attignon, M. Akakpo, M. Sunu
2. Sheep & Goats Husbandry, Wazelao (Binah)-$2940.
Funds are needed to raise sheep and goats to provide training and livelihood for
local youth. The group, made up of instructors and unemployed young people, would
like to also set up a butcher shop and sell the meat. Funds from Togo will be used
to purchase five rams, 20 ewes, one billy goat and five nanny goats, fencing,
cement, wood and building supplies, veterinary care, boots one bicycle, and building
materials to construct a well. The highly motivated contact is M. Wazabalo.
3. Health Care & Pharmacy, Adougbelan (near Atakpame)-$4000.
Funds are needed for construction of a health care center and pharmacy to serve the
village and surrounding areas. Villagers have to walk many miles to receive health
care. Villagers have received permission from the Agou health officials and have
started a "case de sante." Contact: M. Leopold Affo Kangnivi, Rev. Pasteur Hini
Kossi.
4. Artisan Center, Atakpame (Agou)-$4350.
APED (Association d'Appui aux Personnes et Familled Demunies) would like to
construct an office/center for conducting free apprenticeships for orphans. Many of
the members are artisans and could move their equipment to the center, enabling the
orphans to learn a skill and support themselves. They want to install a pay phone
and photocopier. They would also like to use any additional space to store
agriculture produce from their gardens (an additional source of revenue.) The group
pays school expenses and gives dry goods to the needy (often identified by Affaires
Sociales.) Contact: PCV Tiffany Arthur, Mme. Helen Otini. This project may quallify
as a Peace Corps Partnership Program, thus enabling Peace Corps to match FOT's
contribution dollar for dollar.
If you haven't paid your FOT dues recently, or if you'd like to join, now is an
opportune time to do so and you'll receive a copy of the FOT spring ‘99 newsletter.
The tax-deductible membership is only $20/year ($25/year for a foreign address.)
Mail your membership to the FOT address listed above.

Comments: Hello, everyone. Just wanted to let you all know that my place is only about a 40 minute drive from the RPCV Conference in Mpls/St. Paul this August and you're all welcome to stay here. We've got a nice place in the country with lots of camping space and a couple of spare bedrooms. I'll be going in to the Conference every day, so there will be transportation (hopefully if more people stay, a few will be driving; otherwise we'll make some other arrangements.
I went to the RPCV Conference in San Francisco a few years ago and it was very cool to be around so many "Peace Corps types" and to see a few old friends.
I've also been asked to facilitate a West Africa panel discussion at the Conference. Anyone care to participate? Should be interesting!
If I don't see you at the panel discussion or at my place, maybe you'll stop by my "DreamWeavers Travel" booth. I'm still working on starting the community-based West African travel business and my booth at the Conference will be my first big public "show." Hope to see you all there!

Comments: Phew, just scrolled through the whole page checking out news of familiar names. Nice to check out the Togo page again after a long time.
Togo has begun to seem a distant memory much of the time, though a recent trip to the Guatemalan jungle and the *heat* helped revive my senses. Especially walking on a mountain of bat shit -- it smelled just like the dispenaire.
I'm doing fairly well. I have a love/hate relationship with my job in family planning education with teenagers (love the kids, hate the politics). I escape in a few months to start medical school at UCSF. Wish me luck!

Comments: I might fade out now and then, but I don't fade away. Wish I could see some of you at FOT events...but you keep scheduling 'em when I'm on the road. (If I have an international departure date, there's guaranteed to be a party chez Reeder at the same time!)
FYI, I'm stilling doing the international agricultural development thing: working mostly in Russia these days, with the occasional stint in southern Africa and, more and more, the Maghreb. But I get to West Africa often enough to keep the Fulfulde still smooth on the tongue ...like they say about riding a bicycle....you never forget.
In the "passions become obsessions dept." I'm also enrolled part time in the U of MD plant biology Ph.D. program, doing research on the biochemistry of endangered North American medicinal plants. (Who? What? Me? Hard science? Stranger things have happened, you know! ) Focusing on the role of soil fungi (mycorrhizae) in the production of secondary plant compounds. (Yeah, it might as well be Fulfulde, dontcha think?)
Livin' a rustic life, tobacco country, out here on the banks of the Patuxent River...rural enough that we can't get cable OR garbage pickup! Possums on the porch, dogs (Garbo and Dharma) in the yard, cows and horses across the street, plus the odd creature from the wildlife sanctuary down the road. Hot tip: foxes will beg for dog biscuits!
Togo...came home twenty years ago, nearly to the day. Damn, how life crowds out the memories! Still in touch with a few folks, but too few. Soooooo....would love to hear from anyone who remembers me, for better or for worse. And I have a reward out for anyone who can get me in touch with Doug Haubert, Jim Melnicoff or Liz Trankina!

I am starting up a community-based travel company specializing in West and Central Africa. Starting with Niger and Cameroun, hoping to expand to other countries as I learn and grow. Community-based travel means that travelers will stay, at least part of the time, with families and participate in their daily life and work. Community projects may be included in some instances. I'm just starting out, so I'd really appreciate any suggestions/comments, first-hand accounts, or requests for further information. My company name is Dreamweavers and I'll soon have my own site on the Web. Check it out!

Comments: After 20 years, we decided to go back to my wifes PCV village in Northern Togo. We stayed at Le Hotel Le Benin at first and then went to Klouto and finally to Boumbuoaka. We drank Tchakpalo, and sat in the Marchee. We met several of Wendyl's prior students, but the high point was when, in the marchee, one alumnus began singing "The Hokey Pokey" that he'd learned in English class decades ago. We learned to enjoy the several varieties of "BB". Low point was my young son getting "le palu", but the care was great.

I just returned from Togo after a 4 month consultation for their Guinea Worm Eradication program (courtesy of Global 2000/Carter Center). 96 & 97 were tough years for the PNED but in 98 they started fighting again. Amegbo sends his greetings to all RPCV's who aided in the "good fight." I served in the Agou Prefecture 96-97, this trip allowed me to see all of the Maritime and Plateaux. I heard nothing but good things in old PCV villages. All of the GW PCV's in Haho, Zio, and Est-mono should be happy to hear that these folks are close to finishing. Ogou and Agou PCV's, write your old "homologues" and light a fire under their asses, PLEASE!
If you want more info, I'll be happy to help. Peace to you all, and filter before you drink!!!

Comments:
To all friends of the Republic of Togo,
I wish to extend an idea based upon the words "friend" and "friendship." If friendship implies saying and doing one's best for another, then friendship IS the basis of my position. Position: the unification of GHANA and TOGO as one nation.
Needless to say, there will be many, many pros and cons regarding the idea of unification. I suspect many cons will be voiced based upon an emotional attachment to lingering romantic memories - if so, so be it. A fact to keep in mind: following World War I, German Togoland was split in half; one half was incorporated into GHANA (English), the other half became TOGO (a French colony). The unification of GHANA and TOGO, I believe, would result in the advancement (the betterment) of our friends. It would not only be the unification of two countries BUT the REunification of cultures - formerly split by out-dated (by today's standards) European values.
Yes, the first steps in unification would be difficult, first steps always are. Let's discuss them; let's air them - all pros and all cons are respected. The idea is weighty as will be our first thoughts.
FIRST THOUGHT: What would be the benefits of this unification? - through the eyes from Accra? - through the eys from Lome?
Perhaps someone could bring up this idea at the meeting of Les amis du Togo and the Togolese Descendants Association (TDA) in Washington on 27 Feb 1999.
Sincerely, and until next time,
MLK :::

Comments: Greetings from Wisconsin and best wishes for a happy new year in 1999. Was a PCV in Togo from 1976-1979... school gardens in Tomegbe and Amlame... then USAID contractor 1979-1983 with Culture Attelee project in Lama Kara... am racking my mind trying to figure out all 15 stagiaires who came over in 1976 with the school garden project... I can name Doug Hulbert, Peter Boone, Greg Brown, "Catfish Hunter", Tony Solomita, Jeremy Simons, Jim Huerter, myself, Scott Cunningham, Peter Doane, Keith Mendelsohn, Tom Sargent, Bob Pierce and Bill Ferguson... but I can't remember the 15th!!!!! HELP..... Became a "professor" in the Department of Community Development at the University of Wisconsin Extension this year. Even went to Morocco to evaluate the PC/Morocco Agriculture Program for the Ministry of Agriculture... boy how times have changed. PCVs now have access to email. Was an interesting contrast to SubSahel Africa. Will be in Washington, DC during latter part of April, 1999, hope to see the DC gang then... and will be at the RPCV Conference this summer in Minneapolis/St Paul since that's only an hour drive away. It's colder than Hades here in Wisconsin, but then there were days in Togo when I was praying/wishing for days like thes, so I get I should welcome them!
