Thank you very much for Mallika Aryal's report on Nepali tea ('A new leaf', # 261). However, kindly note that GTZ's leading role in promoting Nepali tea at the forthcoming Tea and Coffee World Cup 2005 to be held in Hamburg 11-13 September is missing. The German aid group has been actively involved in tea sector development in Nepal since 1998. In partnership with our alliance, GTZ has also been involved in the development and promotion of the Nepal logo, codes of conduct, PR materials and trade shows.

Chandra Bhushan Subba,
Tea and Coffee Global Development Alliance
