Hello,

The Celebrations of the Khmer New Year ends, as I just announced on the blog with pictures of children in the pool from Koh Kong Casino ...
http://actionsaidescambodge.unblog.fr/tag/koh-kong/

My joy of being with the children was short lived because he had returned to Phnom Penh for the Container.

Oh, oh, my great disappointment at the awkwarness and corruption of Khmer officials .... Unbelievable!
I was on the verge of abandoning everything they asked me to monetize everything and everything ! The hardest part is when the same persons, insensitive to what I tell them .... I said that these are gifts from France to help the orphans, many of clothing and already used or worn, basic necessities such as sanitary towels for girls, toothpaste and other personal care products ... but NO, NOTHING TO DO! Take an agent and it should deal with them because at the end, I finally agreed to settle their damned tariffs ...

All this with the help of Michelle and Duparc Sylvie (wonderful people who have become dear friends). Sylvie has worked for the company based in Rouen EDT. They were with me, the marathon race office of Administration of Cambodia, the Ministry of Social Affairs, the management of customs, the autonomous port of PHN, the agent of a PP EDT, to printers to print The documents requested on letterhead and that with a tramway incessant because there was still something ....

Customs reclame buffer because it is important that any administrative document must be stamped by your company ....
Ah, really, I was discouraged to face this incompetence, inertia and stubbornness ....

In short, after 4 days of intense tension, nervousness, of angry to finally agree to settle the taxes ...

So far ... nothing!
I inform you that I have already asked (by telephone and often several times) and then recovered from the letters from the orphanage and hospital in Koh Kong, the Ministry of Social Affairs (for Chom Chau) and Koh Dach maternity ( structures that we have helped) a few weeks ago to present them to customs in case they would have asked for proof of our aid to these schools, but no way ! it does not suffice!

Sylvie who has organized everything from Rouen, which went out as I have never seen anyone do with such pugnacity, was wonderful with her friend Michelle. They supported me morally because I'm always alone on the ground to decide how and address the problems of emergency .... Feel supported and is a good thing and motivates me to do more! Unfortunately, they came to make a photograph of the opening of the container and so far (2 days before their return to France), there is no chance that the container can be opened ....

In addition to the frustration of knowing that it is THERE, the port of Sihanoukville awaiting clearance to be carried out at Phnom Penh, we must also adjust the daily parking charges from April 11 and this continues, more the amount payable will be high.

Here is the news ... .. the pictures of our adventures with the Cambodian administration will be on the blog in the coming days.

I do not want anyone to go through hard times as morally.
Thank you very much to Duparc Sylvie of society EDT Rouen and Michelle to be on my side.

I appeal to people who wish to help us to settle these charges, to either send a check to our treasurer Josette Vigneulles 78 rue Jonas - 31000 Toulouse or by bank transfer (details are on the site (line 7 - Join sponsor, etc ...).

Thank you very much.

PS : I also wish to thank the colleagues of Sylvie de la societe EDT at Rouen which Celine PAIN, among others, with whom we were linked to several telephone requests for urgent information to provide the agent.

Our stay at the orphanage:

Before we left for Cambodia, we did a fundraiser with our families and friends (es). We were very surprised at the generosity of people. The purpose of this gathering was to have the money to purchase items as needed on site, improve their environment and to organize outings with them.

While waiting for several months, we finally met the children on 24 January 2009. We were so happy to be finally and above all make them.

At our arrival we were warmly greeted the volunteers on site: Anne-Marie, Candice and Julien.

We've a week to learn the name of each. We learned to know and to tame them every day.

These children want to be loved and they are so cute. I fell in love as soon as I saw them.

We had fun with the children while making light work of improving their environment as repainting the building, re tables in metal, paint the edges of flower boxes, build a bridge, bicycle repair, etc..

One Sunday, we have taken to the beach and they were so happy to swim in the sea youngest clung to me and I liked to keep them in my arms. We made sweets, fruits and drinks as a snack.

During our stay, we were very surprised at the autonomy of children. Everyone has a responsibility: some are involved in cleaning, preparing meals, spreading clothes, take the broom, etc. .. That resourcefulness! Thal Chan has a great merit for everything. I would also like to acknowledge the excellent work that Chan Thal made from them. We really enjoyed it.

For the anniversary of Dutch, we have made a great feast. We had bought a gift set of balls, garlands, made a campfire. It was a great success and the children were very excited. We even danced with them around the fire.

During these three weeks we spent wonderful moments. Ginette is very affectionate, kissing and the cuddling. Robert gave English classes twice a day for children.

It was a beautiful experience of life for us. We learned a lot from them and ourselves. It is with regret and sorrow that we had to leave these little love so endearing. And yes, we must continue!
A big thank you to Anne-Marie, Candice and Julien. It was a pleasure to be with you and we miss you.

We keep an unforgettable memory and hope to one day have the opportunity to review the children.
