Dear Dr. Nassar,
Congratulations
to you on all your accomplishments. With the improvement of cassava,
many will eat who would otherwise starve, an accomplishment that should make
you very proud.
I have
always enjoyed being in touch with you and reading about your fine good
works.

Dear Dr.
Nassar,
Thank
you for your email of August 31, 2004.
I
compliment you for developing the cassava hybrid that has mustered such high
demand in Nigeria.
The apomictic and pest resistant material will be very helpful in obtaining
stabilized yields from planting material which can be easily multiplied on a
large scale.
With
kind regards,
Yours

Dear
Nagib,
Thank you
for forwarding the copy of the citation from Rodomiro Ortiz. I am glad that
your contirbutions and hybrids are so well recognized; the application of
research can be difficult but it is excellent that you have achieved this
through your programme including publication.
Best
wishes,
Pat.

Nagib
Fico realmente emocionado e o relato é surpreendente. Parabéns meu caro
colega e amigo. Grato por compartilhar comigo seus esplêndidos resultados,
tão importantes para a África e para o Brasil.
Mereces, pelo menos, a "Ordem do Mérito Científico", pois o Nobel
tem muita política e os julgadores, em geral, não contemplam nossa área de
pesquisa.
Muitos Parabéns !!!
Abraços

Dear
Nagib,
You have my hearties congratulations for a job well done!! To me, providing
small cultivators with superior germplasm to allow them to have a more secure
food supply and a marketable surplus is the most noble of achievements.
Keep up the good work and all best wishes for your personal well being.
