	Abil  #557059  Thu, 21 Aug 08 04:10 AM Thanks Ann, but why "facilitating" and why "with a view to facilitate" is wrong? What is the grammatical explanation?    Abil

	Annvan  #557422  Fri, 22 Aug 08 04:48 AM Hi Yoong Liat,  Yes we've emigrated in the sense of coming to the Philippines wanting to settle here long-term. Main reason for being here, besides loving the people & country (lived here for 5 years 14 years ago), is the local project Young Focus for Education and Development.
