Rotary’ Visitation

Jump to Comments

Today, immediatelly, we were suprised with the coming of Rotarian to Kunci. How many? 10 rotarians. They have celebrated the opening of the library in SMP Karitas and SD Karitas. Yes, we suprised that Rotary opens the library although we heard they only lend the books to the library but not the building. If I were the principal, I will ask Brother Lukas to open the library. Brothers of Charity is the owner. So?

Anyway, it was not our problem. But, today they came just for sightseeing. They asked about the condition, about the programs, about the past residents, and about the Matching Grant for Kunci. But the worst, we also discuss about the Dillip. Who is he?

Edwin figure out him as the destroyer of dream. Yes, last July he came and refused our proposal for Matching Grant. We had short discussion about the proposal, and according to Dillip, the proposal should be for Vocational Training not for the tools, building, water, etc.

Today, DG of Rotary Indonesia (we don’t know his name) strengthen us. He agreed the proposal and suggest to looking another disctric to help Kunci.  The proposal has been canceled for 2 years, hopefully, nest year it will be true. Thanks for all who has helped Kunci.

  • Dear friends, Dilip Mirchandani is the president of district commission 1620, the district of Rc Maldegem and other clubs involved in our matching grant request. Dilip is only giving advice to the district committee. I did not agree with his advice and viewpoint. I gave my vision and opinion to the district committee and we will discuss the Matching Grant on our district committee on 13 October. So as far as I know there is no decision yet?

    Congratulations and thanks for setting up this new blog at wordpress. Please keep it updated regularly so that we could follow the progress of your great services among our needy friends in Yogyakarta. God bless.

  • Today our district governor confirmed my earlier reaction, please send this info also to Rc Malioboro

  • On 13 October I presented Kunci for a matching grant to the committee of district 1620. I gave my vision on the report of Dilip Mirchandani and gave additional information. The district committee will now discuss further on this matter. There is a good chance that we can go on with the matching grant. Of course we need to be working with clients before further financial help will be granted, kind regards Johan
