Dear All ,
Since long i cannot update the information about Library..This August 2009 , we have some difficulties and pleasure at the sametimes..
Difficulities - Landlord increase the renting charges as usual but this time he go far , he ask triple..So, we have to find a new place and for the moment, i can find temporary place for 6 month...i have to find new place again in 6 month.

Pleasure-with some library's fund ,we buy eletric generator and we give it to one village on the way to Mont Popa for the students and villagers. On that day we offer rice soup to all student . And at another village on the way to Salay & Chauk, we offer exercise books to the students.

This year , we have no seminar from our library , only one work shop about ' Negociating Skill'
Well , for the moment this is all i have to share about library.

Libaray's Map and some update news

Dear All,
This is just brief information for 2008, we made one semester/conference and some donation to local small school with the help of Don and His friends from Bangkok. We cannot do big event and help for the children but we are trying to keep running the library for long term condition.

For next year rent of the building(2009/2010), Mrs. Antoinette Duncan take care about this .This is the major portion of the budget we spend in library project every year , if we already have money for the renting charges of building we can easily take care about staff and buying books etc.
