I wish the internet is fast enough so I can upload more pictures... Above is Jalan Sehat on June 28th.

Today is July 5th and the lack of update is because we have been really busy! The high school and university students are mostly very outgoing although some can be really shy sometimes. We've had our first leadership workshop and community outreach (two days ago).

Also we had Childrens' Day where we invited children and mothers to gather and have water/sanitation related activities and to our suprise, more than 500 people showed up. Shahfar went from house to house to invite the locals and instead of saying HARI ANAK BESOK GRATIS (Childrens' Day tomorrow, and its free) she said BAKSO GRATIS (free bakso (local food)) but everything turned out well :)

Team members will update more soon, we are having sustainability discussion and are establishing the local team today.

ps. the food vendors move with the crowd but only at slower pace.

pps. we attended the walk to ambush the mayor -- we were hoping to introduce SEALNet team to him -- we obviously failed because he was surrounded by 50,000 people. but that's ok. we will just have to introduce SEALNet with our good work.
