Comments of participants :
In November 2008, around Deepavali time, Surya and Neema were invited to have a dialogue with young parents in Bangkok, who are required to deal with some complex aspects of living in Bangkok, which included educating their children in international schools, dealing with the contrasting values and expectations within the home and outside, and challenges of living in a foreign country in general. It was a highly interactive session which gave parents useful insights into how to deal with these differences in an effective manner so as to bring a sense of equilibrium into their home life.
