Saru: Summerholiday in the village





































News from the shop


























































Saru is writing:
Peach and Sot are Ok. In the morning, Sot gos to every house in the village to collect the batteries. When he is back, he start repairing the motor or bicycle. Until in the evening, about 3 pm, he takes back the batteries to the owner. It takes 6 hours to charge the batteries. They earn good money from the battery shop, but if the machine is broken, they spend more money to repair. If machine is Ok..... Then they can save money to pay back to the bank. Sot and Peach owe a lot of money to the bank becuse they build the shop, buying Motor, buying some motor tools, and Machine of Batteries. I feel very pity to my brother in law. He works very very hard. If they pay back already, then they will have good life...


Hello from Borin


Dear Orly and Claus

I don't have much to say just sending you photos of the food. This is what they bought last Sunday. Hair shampoo costs 12000 R (3 usd), fresh milk= 13800 R, milk named DA Ca costs 8000 R (2 usd), mosquito killer spray costs 8000 (2 usd), chicken meat costs 10000 R (2,5 usd), fruit...... Total is 16 usd. On Sunday the aunt can cook, so I told her she should buy vegetable to cook, she told me Chanty want to eat chicken. She cooked chicken soup. Other things like hair shampoo and mosquito killer were what they need.
Love
Borin

New clothes and shoes for the kids


















"Now about the children, you can see in the photos, and as you know last week the boy asked me a trousers, and I also told the girl weather she need something or not so they can buy at the same time with their aunt.
Last Sunday (03/05) I gave 10$ to them with their aunt. They went together to the market for a half day, and then they came back with these cloths and shoes. Their aunt told me they really love these, that why she decided to buy it for them. They love these style of clothes and shoes, of their own test. Total spending was 30 $, so I had to give them 20$ more. I did'nt think they bought like this, so I just told the boy: you bought something much more than I expected. They all agreed not to buy food for a time. I said to the boy: this time is like a present for you because you got good result from your studies. They had bought already so…...and I hope you don’t mind too. I know money, if we spend without any planning it will be quick used up.
Love
Borin

Thanks for the money from Borin and the kids

Dear Orly & Claus
Thank you a lot for everything. All the valuable help we are getting nowadays is from you, starting from you, and bringing by you. You spend your own, your effort, your kind regards mind. You make all of these helps for us giving us smile and power to improve our future. You not only give us help but also spend your time flying for a long distance with costing much money to see us. It really show us your warm love and kind mind. Just spending time to write you mail is a little thing.

From my heart, I would like to thank so much to your friends, offering their money to help us. They can share their money to help us we can see their mind to us. I would like to send my best regards to all of them by this meaning.

I told the boy your admiring and your words yesterday, and I also told him the amount of new sending money from you and their left money with me, so they know their money with me, about 160 usd. I give freedom to them to tell me what they need but reasonable things. I ask them again and again and encourage them weather they need to buy more text books or not.

He told me, he needs to buy new note books, and he wants new trousers, so this morning I will give his aunt money to buy for him. I told him to tell the girl the same if she needs other things, so she can buy at the same time.
You can tell me all the time about your new idea to spend money. I always follow you if possible. You wanted me to buy them fresh vegetable, but it was impossible because normally their aunt doesn’t cook as she always busy with her work.
