Report From Thailand Master
Allocates Funds For Wells, The Sweet Nectar Gushes Forth
|
|---|
[Thailand]
The city of Corat and Sikiew County in northeast Thailand have long suffered
from water shortage. Thanks to Master's mercy, She specially allocated a sum
of money to the locals there to dig two wells. All the expenses of the project
were undertaken by Her. Furthermore, this well-digging project has greatly benefitted
many poor Thai people. Both the Corat and Sikew County officials, as well as
Sikew County's refugee camp supervising personnel, all support this project,
helping us to gather the locals' opinions and understand their real needs. With
Master's blessing, the well-digging proceeded smoothly.
After the wells were dug,
the problem of water shortage was resolved immediately. In the past, the locals
had tried to dig wells but in vain. Because they did not have sufficient funds,
they could not afford to purchase good well-digging equipment. They had to
depend on their two hands and simple tools only, and as a result they could not
dig deep enough. Consequently, they had to rely solely on the water from the
raining season ever since. In times of drought, they had to purchase water from
other cities. However, the poor could not afford to buy water, so they had to
get water from ponds several kilometers away. Now that they have the well water,
they no longer have to worry about water shortage. To them this is a joyful
event. While they are wholeheartedly enjoying the water given by Master, the
mind of every village had also received special nourishment.
