Myanmar Cyclone Update
While Aid is getting through very slowly following the unfortunate & tragic events of the Cyclone that hit Myanmar three weeks ago, there are still many areas that have not yet received any assistance.
Many of you have asked about ways in which to help, and since the “official” situation in Myanmar is “difficult” to work with and understand, we have been reluctant to recommend any specific way to donate.
Wanna Tours has however, donated to the RV Pandaw’s Cyclone Appeal. See:
http://www.pandaw.com/cyclone-appeal-c-104.html
We do know the owner of Pandaw Cruises – Paul Strachan, and feel that they are doing a good job in trying to reach some of the more remote areas. The above website does have an up to date “on the ground” Blog and a very easy way to donate funds to assist.
David & Wanna's Vacation
Once again, just to remind you, Wanna & I will be taking a trip to Europe in June and will be away from the Office from 1-23 June 2008. As always our Son, Vachira will be “running the show” in our absence (while also training our New Operations Assistant !!),
So…if there is anything that needs our specific attention – please try to contact us before the end of this week
I think that’s it for this month, catch you all again in July
David, Wanna & Vachira
And all at Wanna Tours.
