[Miguel Yasuyuki Hirota]

     Dear all,

     In terms of legal questions in South America I recommend you to 
read this article written by a legal counsellor for the Central Bank of 
Brazil.

     http://www.uea.ac.uk/env/ijccr/abstracts/vol13freire.html

     It's also worth telling you that other Latin American countries 
follow this trend, especially thanks to the technical assistance by STRO.

     STRO Uruguay: http://www.stro.org.uy/
     STRO Central America: http://www.stro-ca.org/

     And it's also worth mentioning that Venezuela also has some 
politicies which favour complementary currencies, although we should be 
careful on referring to this country, especially when you talk with 
Colombians.  STRO has a colleague who currently lives in Bogota too, and 
you can ask him for further comments...

     Best regards,

     Miguel from Fukuoka, Japan
