    I have a friend who is going to Burma, Thailand and Cambodia next
    month (although recent events make this now uncertain).  Anyway, he
    has very little knowledge about gemstones but wants to purchase
    something for his wife.  I am worried that he will get taken, I've
    tried to give him some basic tips but we all know that won't be
    sufficient.  I am calling out to all of you for some suggestions,
    connections, places to avoid etc. 

    My prayers have been with all of you that have been effected by the
    recent catastrophe in that region. 

Karen
