"The newsletters are easy to read, not long (which I like), resilient, legit, focused, oriented on the subject, giving an update in short what's going on. I can see a deliberate shift of power  and influence on the energy's matter..." (George Vyzaniaris, Hellenic Army Academy)

"I can't thank you enough for the opportunity to participate. It was easily the most enjoyable of all the presentations I have participated in. You, and your team are all remarkable and dearly appreciated. "(Paul Cobaugh, Vice President of Narrative Strategies)

" I like the newsletter very much! What a debacle. It is a classic situation of patience and cunningly executed strategy...it just shows how carefully one must define 'strength' and 'weakness'....You write so well,  and layer the narrative in such an accomplished way "(Murray Bray, Netherland).

“I really appreciate receiving your newsletters and your excellent analysis” ( Lieutenant General Leo Kosinski)

"The newsletter is very good. I would agree that the Taliban had a strategy that aligned with their means. The west did not have a clearly defined or aligned strategy. It is a problem with the west at the moment. I would offer that the base that the Taliban had in Pakistan allowed to sustain their strategy for two decades. Without it, they would not have succeeded...." (Brigadier Mark Brewer)

“At present we have poverty in the island and your CDCG innovative concept that gives results and confidence in Indonesia is equally valid for Pacific Islands as a solution to reduce the needs for the PRC’s intervention that we do worry about “ (Uini Smythe)

“ I actually found APSI very interesting as far as the traditional and non traditional security challenges and spill of effects from the larger states on the smaller states especially in the Asia Pacific region. This is a great opportunity to pass on information to other smaller states for the next APSI...,. And Thank you for the meals ....”

Thanks too for the excellent support team you had working in the background - they did a great job. Final thanks for the personal contributions you made in speaking in your area of expertise and study. It was eye-opening.

I found the lectures highly interesting and inspiring and the speakers motivated and engaged. Of course it is a touchy subject if we talk about the delicate relationship of the various countries in the region, especially those with nuclear weapons, but it was more than worth to do it. I enjoyed every moment of this night !"
