I am very much impressed with the Yemen Times and its reviews. I am an independent documentary film maker and researcher in cultural subjects from India. My documentaries are nationally and internationally acclaimed.

The main reason for writing this letter is to get support and advice for my research project about Yemen. It is noticed that a Muslim folklore of Kerala is the result of migration of Sayyeds of Yemen in the past era. Certain family names of Yemen are still existing here. We have 5000 and above Arabi malayalam literature/a hybrid literary form/ a combination of Arabic scripts and malayalam language. All the writers in the emerging stage were Yemanies. I hope to visit your country and collect materials to support my research. If any one is interested in my theme or has information that could help me, please send me an email thanking you in return.
