After a fair amount of blood, sweat, mosquito bites and a tear, I’m proud to finally proclaim this website “ready to go!”—but unfortunately Bel and I are heading back to Canada in a few days! Ooops!

So that means no real posting until the 17 November, but who knows, we might start rolling out the writing even from Canada. In the meantime, you’ve come to this site because you’re probably a contact or a friend of Mikey Leung. If that’s the case (or even not the case really), we’re interested in having people contribute photographs and/or writing to this project. Just click on the “Contribute” link to learn more.

The research will officially begin once we return.

Hopefully this mailer will help us to facilitate communication among people living in Bangladesh! As it grows, I will add more features and improvements to it. For now the service will remain totally free and moderated by myself. Do watch this space for more..
