Dear Nina,

Yes, the thought has been floating in my mind. Now you have motivated me to
actually get the Thai translations and perhaps also a good Thai-English
dictionary (So Sethaputra?) since it has been a few decades since I left
Thailand.

Is this Jaran Jainhuknan (who is in Singapore and attended one of my
classes) you are referring to, or another Jaran.

What are the exact titles (Thai tr of Commentaries) that I should quote in
my orders?

I know there is also the Thai Translation on CD which I am contemplating of
getting, too.

Dank U & Sukhi

Piya.
