Landie at Zamglai

Landie (currently somewhat missing-in-action) with some of the girls from Zamglai, who really love posing for photos. Digital cameras are such an amazing tool here, because we can be sure they actually get to see themselves in the pics!

Zamglai is an "internat" - a sort of orphanage. Here the inmates, all girls, are looked after by the staff who are paid only as often as can be afforded.

The older girls look after the younger ones, and the more capable help the less capable. Some of them are orphans, many simply can't be looked after at home. When they reach 24 they will either try to live together, and continue to look after each other, or will often end up in an asylum.

Incidentally, the Landie has since been stolen - if you happen to see a discovery which looks as though "www.aidconvoy.net" has been removed from its doors, do please let me know...
