Zum Ende der Fastenzeit machen sich fast alle Indonesier auf in die Heimat ihrer Eltern, bzw. in das Dorf oder den Teil einer meist kleinen Stadt aus der sie kommen. So wie bei uns zu Weihnachten ja alles nach Hause fährt. Die Eisenbahn setzt Sonderzüge ein, es gibt Extra Busse und Busterminals und auch der Flughafen ist voll. „Erste Hilfe zum Ende der Fastenzeit“ weiterlesen

I got my hand to some more Information of the Jumbara asean, which is the South East Asian Youth Red Cross meeting, that we will be attending from today in Batam a island off Singapore in Indonesia.
See also my last blogpost. I’m a little embarrased, but we will come there virtually empty handed, since neither 
we nor the delegation has any material in form of pins, flyers or any other stuff we will be able to share there. I built this two posters from the stuff we got send from Germany as power points. But German Youth Red Cross has a good website with many Ideas: IdeenNetz that helped. „Infos about Jumbara asean“ weiterlesen

Despite that the programm inculded a game show, a talk show to have interaction with the board and information from the sponsors the Bank of Indonesia.
The students are aged 11- 16 years and are member of one of the Yout Red Cross clubs in the schools. German Red Cross runs a school based disaster prepardness programm here in the province and many schools benefit from this as well.
