[PDF-members] [PDFlist] FW: Deadline extension: Call for CSO applications to CSW68

Sat Nov 18 08:27:30 +12 2023

A very Good Day Seta,

Thank you very much for the reply to my email...

Seta, Is the invitation going to the government rep or just the members of
our OPDs?, because, it is very hard to select the right person in this
regard.

Vinaka and Kalahngan
Henry
