Hoi,
I have heard that there might be a given number of L2 speakers. As stated
is not a convincing argument. I am willing to entertain the thought but it
needs to be more convincing.
Thanks,

Hoi,
I am quite happy when someone argue their case. I will certainly listen.
In
the past there were Americans who said to support
languages from Papua
New
Guinea. Their arguments is why we ask for native
speakers. The good
thing of
this policy is that we can do differently when
the situation fits a need.
Thanks,

The context of "having native speakers" is not existential, but having
them working on particular project.
