Notice:	Hi! I am currently an M.A. student at UNC Chapel Hill who is doing research on S'gaw Karen, a Tibeto-Burman language spoken in Burma and Thailand. My research interest is phonetics and phonology of S'gaw Karen. The main literature I have been working with so far is listed under 'References' below. There are a couple of older sources, but these are the ones I have used the most. I am looking for access to a Master's thesis from Mahidol University in Thailand on the phonology of Sgaw Karen: Puttachart, Dhananjayananda. (1983). The phonology of Sgaw Karen, with comparisons with Thai. Mahidol Univeristy: MA Thesis. Our library system has been unable to reach Mahidol University (they have not replied to multiple email queries between October and December of 2012). I feel that access to this source would be very helpful in my research, and I was wondering if anyone could direct me as to how to obtain a copy.
