[01:39:13]
{SPEAKER name="Esther Chow (Interviewee)"}
I don't know, I have no idea. Uh, but I found the article. Actually I have more,

[01:39:21]
but I only can have time to give so much to her and then this expensive.

[01:39:29]
And, uh, so I can... she just make copy of whatever she was able to do it, and so left a lot of thing in here instead.

[01:39:43]
Let me--She have the negative, some are here and she did not print.

[01:39:51]
It was this article about the old people--this one is very old article. So--so I have this things like this, and--but she was only print this out for people to look at.

[01:40:15]
[SPEAKER name=" (Interviewer)")
So, uh, do you mind if we maybe the [[?]] to make a copy? Or scan the, the, this photos...?

[01:40:26]
{SPEAKER name="Esther Chow (Interviewee)"}
I have been experience of leaving things out of my hand, so, um, I-

[01:40:34]
{SPEAKER name="Samir Meghelli, Ph.D. (Interviewer)"}
Yeah, no, she doesn't mean tape. She just means right here, right now.

[01:40:38]

[01:40:40]
[SPEAKER name=" (Interviewer)")

[01:40:42]
{SPEAKER name="Esther Chow (Interviewee)"}
Um, actually I can ask my secretary to--too bad I was not in my office, we have Xerox machine to scan this, but you--feel free to use this to--to do it if you think that it serves the purpose.

[01:40:58]

[01:41:18]
{SPEAKER name="Esther Chow (Interviewee)"}
--had available at that time and I did not follow up and ask her to do more.

[01:41:24]
Um, and she was an intern. And she did it for me, you know, for college credit, as independent study, so, um,

[01:41:34]

[01:41:45]
{SPEAKER name="Samir Meghelli, Ph.D. (Interviewer)"}

[01:42:30]
And he really make a lot of contribution and to the, uh to the community, and help a lot of Chinese families, uh in Chinatown.

[01:42:50]
And so when we have a project with the urban policy [[?]] and [[friends in Cali?]] um, select him as the um, leader, model leader of Chinatown and hire a actor to portray him and perform in particular event.

[01:43:22]
So I want to mention this particular leader, and, because his long lasting contribution to the community.

[01:43:34]
