A CS professor is working with Unicef on a project supporting the Laos immunization system which will involve workers at health centers sending monthly reports by SMS which will then be automatically processed. He has some questions relating to the use of text messaging in Laos, such as the preference of scripts, and the process for entering Lao (or Thai) characters. If you are familiar with Laos, and would be willing to answer a few short questions, please contact Richard Anderson (anderson@cs.washington.edu)
