As for us, we focus on both earthquake and Merapi victims. Furthermore we worked with a good non political local group. Anyway i personally like the turkish doctors, enthusiastic, polite and like to share ideas. He might faced with language problem, need a good interpreter or assistant(as mine at Merapi)not only to translate but to 'sweet talk' to the victims.<BR/><BR/>Operating as a mobile doctor is not similar as working in a private clinic or hospital. we have to be straight to the point because of the long queue and yet need to satisfy them with the basic requirement and confidence. I spent 2 minutes the most with most patient, checked the blood pressure which was the most important for them (tensinya pak), speak a bit of their language to show that we actually understand them, and dispensed the medications and leave the details to the assistants. ;)Ikelahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05196298498121431412noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14794667.post-1150776611301160882006-06-20T12:10:00.000+08:002006-06-20T12:10:00.000+08:00paulI spoke to the Kompass Photographer who took m...<B>paul</B><BR/>I spoke to the Kompass Photographer who took my photo, "Masih menunggu?" He smilled, "Ya Pak, menanti momen."<BR/>I had been talking about moment and opptunity when giving motivation/leadership class to youths. The right moment to do transaction, investment, political carrier, jobs, making crucial decisions and even taking photos.<BR/><BR/>I was supposed to be at the right moment with clear blue sky, minimal cloud and Merapi very active. For the night, it was a clear with nearing full moon to shine on the mountain. That is the Greatness of God reminding us that beauty is not always or necessarily good. However, observing the beauty of God Creation will bring us closer to Him for those who think.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for the cissss!<BR/><BR/><B>DITH</B><BR/>Paul,"Na, I ambil flight ke SOlo besok."<BR/>Na, "Isk, siapa nak jaga budak, dahlah servant dah balik kampung dan I kena ambil cuti."<BR/>Paul,"Jom kita semua ke Sololah kalau macam tu."<BR/>Na,"Perut macam ni, mereka beri ke naik flight."<BR/><BR/>Paul termenung memandang jauh yang tidak kesampaian. ;)<BR/><BR/><B>crimson skye</B><BR/>Thanks.<BR/><BR/>I love this mission best, better than Acheh and Pakistan as i get to know the people more after staying with them with 'sederhana' food on the mountain. I lost a few kg, whereas at Acheh bertambah kilo.<BR/><BR/>As for Anang, I did manage to get him extra work as a driver and guide to a group of hospital staff coming to Solo-Jogja in the middle of July attending an Islamic Hospital Conference at Universiti Gajah Mada.<BR/><BR/><B>mynn</B><BR/>Thanks.<BR/><BR/>Those are not my gear. It belongs to the Kompass Photographer, a Nikon D2H with a long tele. <BR/><BR/>As for the Merapi Kids, anak dan kemanakan Pak Suharto, thee 3 months stress is long. We dont really know when it will end. As for us in Malaysia we have all sorts of entertainment to ease ourselves from a portable toy to a huge screen. As for them, they dont have PC at their home, they are not glued to the CRT except for the WC matches and occasionally the Indonesian movies. After finishing their assignments, they will strum and pluck the guitar with the others joining in singing. The picture was on our third day when Merapi was a bit quiet, as the locals say, "Ia senyap kerana sedang mengumpul kekuatan."<BR/>True enough, two days later it spurted out massive lava with huge hot cloud and 'hujan abu' causing Sleman city to be muddy.<BR/><BR/>watermark to.... ;) if u need the unmarked, just email me.<BR/><BR/><B>mynn again</B><BR/>hehehe.. but i obtained the URL from your site. Fantastic templates. Thank to you for that. <BR/><BR/><B>mama sarah</B><BR/>hahaha.... the gadget belongs to Kompas(Indonesia Newspaper), a Pro Photographer. He took the picture with his ingenious skill that need just slight cropping. Thanks to him(did not get his Javanese name, too complex).<BR/><BR/>Anang is a good friend. He actually tried his best to meet me in Jogja(we met twice) eventhough he was working far at Klaten, arrived back late and tired.<BR/><BR/>The kids need to be motivated so that when they help at the mobiles, their sweet non stress expression will soothe the misery suffered by the victims. Actually they were also worried of the eruption but were able to overcome it in order to help us. Umi is actually from Klaten and Aida at the foot of Merapi not effected by both earthquake or at risk of Merapi's wrath.<BR/><BR/><B>easylady</B><BR/>hehehe... kalau dith nak pergi, she needs me around. kalau u nak pergi, u need jo around.... i guess. ;)<BR/>we have to check out the rooms and the toilets first...hahahaha<BR/><BR/>i tak biasa dengan thailand. my encounter with them tak banyak tapi bahasa mereka memang mendayu dayu. Bagi orang jawa, mungkin di sebelah sini, jawa tengah dan jawa timur tetapi tidak di sekitar jakarta. Namun apa yang penting ialah ikatan kekeluargaan, hubungan bersama tetangga yang akrab, semangat kekitaan dalam satu kampung atau kecamatan dapat menyelesaikan banyak masalah keruntuhan akhlak di kalangan remaja mereka. Cara bahasa yang lembut dan penuh sopan santun memang memikat kalbu. <BR/><BR/><B>pycno</B><BR/>InsyaAllah, mereka yang menderma akan mendapat lebih lagi dari Allah di akhirat kelak dan kita memperolehi seorang rakan yang jauh di tanah jawa untuk bersahabat. Ini giliran meraka diuji, kita tidak tahu bila giliran kita. Kita berarap agar dengan sedikit pengorbanan ini, Allah akan menggerakkan seseorang untuk membantu apabila kita dalam keadaan memerlukan.Ikelahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05196298498121431412noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14794667.post-1150769025191991152006-06-20T10:03:00.000+08:002006-06-20T10:03:00.000+08:00I'm pretty sure those who have donated pun, 'tidak...I'm pretty sure those who have donated pun, 'tidak mengharapkan apa-apa ole ole dari Anang.
