Updates from Bobby's recent trip to Burma: Part 2 of 3

Now that we are getting close to the completion date of the plowing and planting season, we will begin to look into the other areas of needs and try to meet these needs. So, I am hoping that IDES will continue to partner with us during this next phase as well the Good Lord willing and provided He provides for the needs. The next needs on the list are the fishery cooperative projects. These include the crab, prawns and fish fishing projects. There are far greater needs than what we are proposing but are limiting them to this at this time. If more funds could be made available, much more projects could be done. As I have mentioned in the report, these people have lost everything and for some since they don't have fields, the only thing they have remaining is the knowledge of fishing. For these people, we need to help them get back on their feet or they will certainly starve to death in the long run. Right now as they are able to get their daily food supply, they seem to be doing ok but when that UN food projects end at the end of August-September, they will have nothing to survive on. As for fishing, they can become self sufficient from day one. From the word go!
