"We are very happy with
Together for Sudan because you have done a lot to help education in the
Nuba Mountains. I visited some kinderegartens which were set up after
your Teacher Training and asked for more of this. Also, I went to the
graduation of teachers who were from the former Sudan Peoples
Liberation Army controlled area but had been trained by you with
teachers here in Kadugli. This was a very good idea. As a government we
are dedicated to cooperation with Together for Sudan and whatever you
ask we will try to help with. We hope to have more cooperation,
especially in Teacher Training. Let us plan together."
