Brian Aftanas has spent his career in the international private sector interacting with corporations and government agencies around the world. He visited Angola during the civil war; visited Kazakhstan shortly after the fall of the Soviet Union, has traveled by public transit in northern Thailand, walked the streets of Bogotá Colombia, and has visited innumerable stable places around the world. He has met with CEOs and Ministers, but, more importantly, has worked extensively at the “ground level” with people doing their jobs who are just trying to live their lives as peacefully as they can. Brian Aftanas is a US citizen but writes from an international perspective.
