Thailand, Cambodia, and China—Esri T-Shirts Go East!

Tony Tucker
Tony Tucker, GIS planner, Ventura County, California, Watershed Protection District, and his wife, Tippawan, visited a Karen Tribe village in upcountry Thailand near the Myanmar border in December 2004. They wanted to meet the "longneck" people and buy some of their beautiful textile products. Apparently the tradition of wearing neck rings for the women was to protect them from tiger attacks while the men worked the fields of their former villages in the Myanmar mountains. Tony is pictured here with his Esri T-shirt and a lady who explained that older women can build up to 28 bronze rings. |

Gregory Luna
Gregory Luna, senior research technologist, Land Analysis Lab, Pennsylvania State University, and his wife recently traveled through the Mekong Delta in Vietnam and then visited Angkor Wat, Cambodia. The photo with the large face comes from a temple complex called Bayon. Gregory tells us that Angkor Wat is one of the few archaeological sites clearly visible on Landsat imagery. In addition, we are glad to see his Esri T-shirt is also clearly visible! |
Kevin Switala
Kevin Switala, director of State and Local Government markets for Esri business partner GeoDecisions, recently took his Esri T-shirt to new heights. During a recent trip to China with his wife, Katie, to complete the adoption of their new daughter, the two climbed to one of the highest points on the Great Wall of China. |

Tom McConnell is with the Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund International which supports the new GIS Center at the University of Rwanda as they map the movement of the Gorillas in Virunga National Park. This obviously distinguished gentleman is clearly even more distinguished with his Esri T-shirt front and center! |
