Report from Khemphone-Lao PDR
Dear jicafreinds,
Let me report you about my situation now.
After I came back form Japan my office has problem with finance and it make me lost a job. I was jobless for five months beginning of January until May in 2007, during I was jobless my life was quite difficult to daily living life in the society. I have to accept hard necessary to responsible to take care of my family.
I started to work at HIB (Handicap International Belgium) beginning in June 2007, I got work past time assistants of CBR project (Community base Rehabilitation) Project. I had responsibility of Vocational training Disability people (Vocational Training Lao Korea School and Vocational training Lao Coco Company.)
After 2007, beginning of 2008 I started to work as full time staff at HIB my position is Peer Support officer at HIB until right now. When my free time I go to help sport at NRC (National Rehabilitation center) to help Okayama san from AAR http://www.aarjapan.gr.jp/english/index.html and ADDP(Asia Development with Disabled Persons) some time I play wheelchair basket ball.
Some time I been coordinator between disable people who need wheelchair and tricycle, I have to contact AAR for them and some time brought them to AAR office. When I came to work at HIB I can help little bit about accessible of the school, because in HIB produces hand book for accessible of the school for disability children It is say "School for every body."
I Individualy help disability person, Example: I find a job in garment factory for students when they are finish form vocational training in the school. I find small donation to help HIV lady. I find a good way to help disability child when step parents don’t want him to stay with them. I work in CBR project of Savanaket but I stay work in Vientiane office, only my boss travel between Vientiane and Savanaket.
My project plan (friendly service), which I submitted to JICA.
It is so far for me but it is still in my dream I hope that I will implement my project plan near future.
