Hi Eric,

I am privelege to have met Serenita a week before she left for US. I was on a holiday in Samoa, when the then manager of SPBD, Rico Munoz, asked me to help a local production to direct a documentary of Serenita's day-to-day life to be used during the launching of Kiva B4B Community. I was referring to your post above particularly the video. Being a professional video producer and director myself, i have agreed to help my friend. I have not regretted my decision to help SPBD as i had a wonderful time interacting with Serenita's family and learning the Samoan culture as i immersed myself at their home during the filming ans well as with the local crew i worked with who were really very professional and hard working Samoan men. I am glad to have contributed to the launching of Kiva and Advanta merger, though not in an official capacity and i was proud to show to the people of the US the very rich culture and tradition of Samoa. Samoans are a fun loving hard working people and i have loved every minute of my stay there. I hope to go back there again sometime.
