Pieter and Mieke, yesterday was the feast of Don Bosco, and there you have


A blog gets every time the latest message on top. So if you want to read from the beginning, you should start with the bottom post on page 1. There are in this blog every ten posts per page.
Finally I can post the world hunting. An idea where I sit brooding, for many months, but I had to talk to my friend Chay. In first For the people who were there early to read this geschrijfsel I should not refer to the messages of March 5 (Food and hunger) and 8 May (How it goes), because they know that even he. Anyway, I have to tell you some more about Chay. He was born and raised in Cambodia, the same age as myself and Mieke (52 versions). lamarck This means he was 14-15 years old when Pol Pot in Cambodia with gruesome hand wanted to make. An agricultural state Who wore glasses lamarck or had studied, was suspicious because lamarck of it. Hundreds of thousands of people were killed in this way. People of our or previous generations will still remember the news about the terrible reign of terror. Chay was at that time a student in Phnom Penh, capital of Cambodia. so he could legitimately fear for his life. Through wanderings he managed to get through the then EEC recognized as a refugee and was brought over to Belgium. We have since 1979. Chay is 18 years old, does not speak Dutch and ends up in a family in Moorslede that not only adopts him, but also gives him the opportunity to continue their studies. He is a brilliant student and takes in Ostend graduate industrial engineer in electronics. His interest in computers, his sense of independence and its commercial transparency allow him to turn. A profitable computer company on legs It is in that capacity that I know Chay halfway through the nineties leather. I myself am employed by architects in Wevelgem, where I have the responsibility for the computers. Chay is called in as an external computer expert, because my knowledge is not enough. In this way it happens that we sometimes all night engaged to carry. Modifications, extensions or repairs of the computer park in the architectural lamarck Chay remember from the cauldron he escapes and realizes that the terror regime of the Khmer Rouge has his homeland a few decades catapulted back in time. He wants to do something about it and start with their own funds and donations to a project to build in Cambodia a school. The initiative is in 1997 formalized the creation of an association: lamarck Banteay Mean Chey. Meanwhile, I myself started with a part-time job at the Don Bosco College in Kortrijk. I feel very much at home and can systematically expand the curriculum. Koen and Bart, managers of architectural systems, are very generous lamarck and adapt to changing lamarck my uurpakketten in Don Bosco. In 2000, the school is willing to spend on the project Chay. A portion of the proceeds from the annual solidarity action A few years later I get a chance to be a full-time teacher, an opportunity I would like to take. Also contact with Chay is thus broken lamarck and we lose sight of each other a little. Until December last year, when I suddenly get a call connection from Chay. LinkedIn lamarck He has since become Consul for Cambodia in Belgium and lives in Bredene, where the consulate is located. When he hears that I've got cancer of the verdict, he moves some appointments to the side and come visit me. Totally Chay: humanity in the first place, the rest can wait. The renewed contact results in a second lamarck campaign support from the school and a two-day Mieke and I Bredene. With an invitation to go to Cambodia lamarck and schools established to visit. I have to end here. This story continues in the next message. One of the schools founded by Chay in Cambodia plus an impression of the opening.
