I write to commiserate with you on the outbreak of this horrible virus and its impacts on you and your colleagues. I believe it has severely affected universities and researchers, and the long term impacts remain unknown. What a nightmare! Solidarity in hard times, dear colleague. Here's wishing that the situation improves sooner rather than later...

With warmth, and best wishes

向你们致以最温馨美好的祝福！

18 Raj Patel and farmers from Malawi 16/02

It has been a little while since we were in touch, but I've always treasured your hospitality and our time together. I've been thinking of you, in the teeth of the Covid19 nightmare, and I know the trials of the COHD community. 

Here in northern Malawi, where I find myself, I shared the news with the farmers with whom I'm working, and they shared this message of solidarity:

“Farmers around the world know what it is like to be forgotten but we remember each other. From here in Bwabwa in northern Malawi we send greetings of solidarity. We are very concerned with our friends, from China with the corona virus. We are concerned for you and we are putting in our wishes that this plague should pass you. We are together with in your sorrow, and send solidarity and strength.”

I do the same, and wish all the best to you, your family, and all our comrades

Raj

虽然久未晤面，但是我对贵院的友善热情和我们共度的时光记忆犹新。在新冠肺炎肆虐之时，想必人文与发展学院也面临着严峻的考验。我非常惦念大家。

此刻，身在马拉维北部，我把有关疫情的信息告知调研地的农民朋友。他们也想要声援中国人民的抗疫行动：

“全世界的农民都知道，被人遗忘是什么感受。但我们懂得守望相助。我们是马拉维北部布瓦的农民，在此送上我们的祝愿。我们挂念着受病毒困扰的中国朋友，我们共同祝愿你们早日战胜病毒。对于你们的痛苦和悲伤，我们感同身受。愿与你们同心协力，一起战斗。”

这也是我的心声。希望您和您的家人、我们的同志和朋友们一切安好！

I hope this finds you well despite the difficulties caused by the Covid-19 situation. I hope your friends and families are managing okay, and please also send my best regards to the other great people I have met at your Institute.

I am right now in Laos, conducting a follow up research with rural youth I started working with in 2007 (so they are now really young adults). The research is going fine and so far Laos seems to be escaping the Covid-19 situation but then again test facilities are very weak here so I do not think all is necessarily fine here.

Please hang in there, and much hoping for better times very soon!

Best wishes,

Roy

疫情当前，困难重重。我希望你们都平安健康，也希望你们的朋友和家人一切顺利，同时也向我在人文与发展学院结识的其他同仁和朋友致以最诚挚的问候。

我目前在老挝进行一项农村青少年群体的后续研究。研究工作始于2007年，所以当初接受调研的群体已经成年了。研究进展颇为顺利。到目前为止，老挝似乎未受到疫情影响。但是这里的检测设施和条件仍很薄弱，所以情况也并不一定非常乐观。

请加油！祈愿曙光早日降临！

祝好！

I am writing, as part of the Southern Centre for Inequality Studies in South Africa, to express my solidarity with you, the COHD, CAU and the country, as the People’s Republic of China struggles to battle the Corona virus. My time at COHD as part of the JPS summer writeshop was a unique opportunity to get to know the college and connect with scholars from across the global South—an opportunity for which I will be forever grateful. Please do let us know if there is any assistance you may need and I look forward to continuing to connect.

The shocking news of the recent weeks from China reveals not only the fragility of humanity but also the urgency of cross-border solidarity and support. 

I'm sure that the brave people of China will resist this crisis as much as they have resisted others. While the storm passes, I want to express my solidarity with you and with all the friends from COHD at CAU. I have the highest gratitude towards you for your hospitality at our last JPS Writeshop. 

All the best,

过去数周，来自中国的消息让我们震惊。我们意识到人类何其脆弱，而国家之间的团结合作、互帮互助又何其必要与紧迫。

我相信勇敢的中国人民一定能如同以往一样，战胜这场危机。狂风暴雨之中，我的心和你们在一起。也特别感谢贵院与《农民研究》期刊联合举办的暑期写作研修班，我获益匪浅。

顺祝康安！

I am one of the attendees who participated in the workshop on Critical Agrarian Studies in July 2019.

I would like to express my sadness about the current situation. I have great memories about China (thanks to you). I believe that this virus will be completely erased in beautiful China very soon! Until this time, I wish a patient to you! 

Take care and greetings for everyone there!

With all my best wishes

I can imagine how difficult it is for you and our friends and colleagues at COHD and the entire population in China during this very tough moment of the ongoing public health crisis.

I am writing from Bangalore, India, to express solidarity with the CoHD community. I was a recipient of the warm hospitality extended by you and your colleagues at CoHD during the JPS Writeshop last year, and am writing out of the widely shared concern for the CoHD community among fellow Writeshop-mates about the distress caused by the coronavirus. I hope all of you are safe and well and would like to send much positive energy to you and your colleagues. You are in the thoughts of many of us at the moment. 

Warm regards,
