MMC,

I would like to propose to postpone the MMC meeting scheduled for tomorrow so that we can 
gather enough documents for the meeting especially on arrangements for visa, quotations for 
holding the workshop including instructor visa, instructor air ticket, instructor accommodation, 
refreshments and lunch, pads, adverts, etc

I would like to thank Tayamika Jumbe for visiting the Immigration Dept in Blantyre to assit tpo 
follow-up on this visa issue. I have now talked to Mrs Mtande who has then sent us a letter 
authorising MISPA to make payment for the visa letters, I have paid as here attached and I 
am just waiting for the visa letters which Mrs Mtande has confirmed will be issued tomorrow. 
Hopefully MISPA will refund the cash to me.

Once we have these quotations and documents then we can hopefully use the MMC meeting 
to finalise the IPv6 Workshop arrangements and schedule the payments hopefully to be 
finalised before the end of next week.

I would hence like to recommend that we hold the MMC Meeting on Tuesday 3 Sepetmber 
from 2pm at the usual venue at College of Medicine ICT Boardroom.

Please confirm if this is ok with you and let me know if there is anything else that needs to be 
done.

Regards,

Paulos
