Tue Apr 2 07:38:53 UTC 2024

Dear Justine,

Thank you for your email. I'm really grateful to have the opportunity to
learn and be involved in such insightful discussions and deliberations with
the APRALO Small Team. Echoing Faheem, it was an incredible experience to
collaborate with you, Cherie, Faheem, Phyo, and Samik within the small
team, as well as hearing thoughts from other community members as well
throughout the process. Thank you for your kind guidance and support.

Best regards,
Mabda
