"This Conference has been extremely informative and useful. In the future, we (i.e Royal Irrigation Department) will definitely subscribe to the DHI monthly newsletter "The Network - Community Newsletter for DHI Software Users". It is a very easy and efficient way of keeping ourselves updated about the new developments of the software".
