Repairing & Providing Clean Water for the Moken Village.

Again we called upon Gary’s expertise to come and repair and secure the hand pump in the Moken Village.  Everyone came and helped, the men dug the well deeper, the kids lifted and carried all the equipment for us and of course Phillip was on hand for translation.  Now the water is flowing yet again and we eagerly look forward to some much needed rain to fill the well.  This well provides enough water for 100 people !!!!!

Thank you also to Mark from FED for his help

Helping the kids toward a Brighter Future

We have commenced repairing, painting and decorating an existing building in the Moken Village which will become a Learning Centre on 15th May.  The other building we will use is still under renovation due to termites and weather.  We expect this will be completed around the end of the month.

Thank you everyone who have braved the blazing heat to come over and help with all the work necessary.  Kids are really excited and so are we !!!!!
