09/03/2010 kartthai.com IS LOOKING FOR NEW WEBMASTER!

Due to his commitment as researcher at an international organization and near-coming graduate studies abroad, Kanit - the current webmaster - is now planning and looking for a new webmaster to replace him. This is a very interesting job and will not consume too much time from the interested person. (A box has been created on the web you are seeing right now take less than 5 minutes for each time of update.) This is not urgent but as a matter of planning we need the replacement webmaster in advance. Please kindly contact Kanit at crgkanit@gmail.com should you are interested. Training will be provided.
