| Meeting BSMI representatives |
Day 1 in Nepal: The day was full with appointments. Since there were
other NGOs in Nepal, MyCARE decided to work with them.
First we met
representatives from Bulan Sabit Merah Indonesia (BSMI) and agreed on
some cooperation.
Then through our contacts with Federation of Islamic
Medical Association (FIMA) we met Dr. Kashim, President of Islamic
Medical Association of Nepal (IMAN).
Dr. Kashim took us to visit the office of Jagrathi Children and Youth Council (JCYC). There, BSMI passed
over 6 bags of medicinal items. And MyCARE had an agreement to have
joint programs with JCYC in future.

Next we visit the field clinic of
Badan Nasional Penanggulanggan Bencana (BNPB), from Indonesia. Right
next to the field clinic, in Stangal, were tents for the internally
displaced people.

Day 2 in Nepal:
The world is not short of people with good heart. They came from all walks of life and from all corners of the world.
It helps if we knew and befriend other NGOs, especially local NGOs. It
is also a win-win situation if several NGOs cooperate in doing this
works, for the disaster victims, the government and the NGOs.
