Yes, I live in Oz, in Sydney, but would love to be in Indonesia for at least 6 months of the year, but do not have the finances for that.
So sad about Novi's daughter- no my friends only work in Sumatra/Aceh and even then their resources are stretched because of the continual push for funds.
I paid for one child's operation this year, but would love to have paid for more, but I have several private sponsorships in West Java and North Sumatra I look after.
Like you if I won Lotto I would dedicate the rest of my life to helping those in Indonesia with medical conditions that need ocrrecting. There are literally millions of Indonesians with medical problems that will never be corrected because of the lack of money.
If you feel inclined email me direct- my email is highlighted. I love emailing people who have a strong connection to Indonesia.
That is why I spend half my life on the travel forums encouraging travellers to go and doing their itineraries for them for free.
