September 05, 2013 To, Shri Abhay Kumar Poet and Lyricist, Kathmandu Dear Shri Abhay Ji Greetings from the Foundation. South Asia Foundation, set up in 1991 to strengthen people to people contact in the South Asian Region for greater regional co-operation, is actively involved in the South Asian Region. We have found the Earth Anthem, coined by you, very interesting and recently, it was released by Sh. Kapil Sibal who is also the Chairman of SAFF Steering Committee of the South Asia Foundation. This was appreciated by many people. On behalf of the Foundation, we would like to request you to kindly coin and create an anthem for the South Asian countries which we would like to showcase in all the events organised by the South Asia Foundation from time to time and also in all the South Asian countries through our Regional Chapters and Partners. We hope that you will do your best to create this anthem which will help the Foundation to bond the South Asian Countries more effectively. Looking forward. Regards, (Rahul Barua) Secretary General
