Flood News

Flood waters are certainly newsworthy here in Thailand.  I just took a look at Thaivisa.com.  Some of the headlines are very interesting indeed. The Bangkok Governor is Blamed on Flooding Mismanagement. The former prime minister is complaining that the new administrations' budget doesn't address the flood situation properly. I read all this stuff and wonder if I've been deported back to the United States.  Point the finger at the other guy and yell as loud as you can, maybe the blame will pass you by. Would they get more accomplished if they put their personal ambitions aside and worked togather?   It's obvious that there is plenty of work to me done!

Hey, Thanks for Saving Me! 

In the meantime there are some people doing exceptional work. Let me focus on the postive.

Boats + Volunteers = Lives Saved!
Thai Watana Panich Press has donated the use of land at their production site.  That land is being used to create a temporary shelter for more than 2,000 dogs! The generousity of Thai Watana Panich Press should be noted. They are helping to save thousands of dogs. They are a printing company and can be found at http://www.twppress.com/

Save Elephant Foundation (SEF) is taking the inital lead in this effort but they are not alone! SEF, Soi/Street Cats And Dogs (SCAD), Pick A Pet 4 Home, Kinship Circle
Humane Society International have formed a coalation.  The Soi Dog Foundaton, Wild Life Friends Thailand (WFFT) and many other indendent volunteers are helping. There are so many good people involved; it's really heartwarming.  Hardworking volunteers are spending countless hours trying to do all they can!




October 2011, They Will Not Forget
SEF is accepting on line donations through http://www.serengetiusa.com/  Just go to that website, click donate and designate the money to go to SEF. Many people are sending them an email as well.
