Hi all,
I would like to invite you to visit the expedition report I just put online on my website regarding my visit to a cultured south sea pearl farm in Mergui in December 2007:

I hope that you will appreciate the visit as if we found out that Mergui produce some interesting pearls, we were really touched by the Mergui people:
A report about this expedition was also published in the last issue of Jewelry News Asia.
Wishing you a nice visit,
All the best,
