When the troops from the Soviet Union left Afghanistan in 1989, the nine-year war ended, but fighting among factions continued. Also, there continued to be a refugee problem after the mandate of UNGOMAP lapsed in 1990. To keep the UN informed about the situation in Afghanistan and neighbouring Pakistan, a Special Representative of the UN Secretary General was sent to the region. OSGAP was formed to provide this official with a team of military advisors. Canada contributed one of the ten advisors. 1, record 7, English, - Office%20of%20the%20Secretary%20General%20in%20Afghanistan%20and%20Pakistan

A "broker" is someone who represents a manufacturer or marketer(his "client") to prospective customers, and receives a commission, usually monthly, in recompense. Brokers do not purchase product. They do not warehouse merchandise. They are not resellers. They are representatives. In fact, their role is not too far afield from the role that exists between a real estate "broker" and his client. A broker takes the place of a clients sales representative without incurring a fixed cost.... Brokers may or may not have an exclusive territory, but often do. Brokers may have exclusivity to an particular "class" of customers within a specified territory, such as military or government customers. Most brokers specialize in a particular area, such as frozen foods, groceries, dairy, even health foods, and nearly all successful brokers represent more than one or two manufacturers. 2, record 8, English, - foodstuff%20broker
