However, this collaboration needs to be considered within the overall framework of the current process to enable UBL activity to be included within UN/CEFACT . 17 March 2006 8th UN/CEFACT FORUM - Vancouver 28

Do not miss the Hawa Mahal, the tall facade with delicately filigreed red sandstone. Beyond Jaipur, in Rajasthan are fabulous towns with magnificent forts and palaces that still reflect a feudal spirit Jodhpur, Jaisalmer, Bikaner and Udaipur. 17 March 2006 8th UN/CEFACT FORUM - Vancouver 57
