CK Lal in his State of the State column 'Meddling along' (#241) seems not fully informed about the Association of INGOs (AIN). He can contact the AIN office and find out any information he needs to do a followup article in your prestigious newspaper. As a member of AIN, INF is independent, transparent, has a democratic structure, gives preference to the poor and disadvantaged and is always ready to pass on to the media any information it requests. This is my personal view.
