Thanks. We are very happy to see the condition of these books. Thanks to Hector, Heidi and Thrift Books. She added about 17 sets of Encyclopedia and they are in very good shape.

It will be a good idea to visit a library in Delta in December. We can go day trip. We can build our first library if Simpsons and other donors are ready to contribute. But, if you all want to build a library, Yangon will be more suitable. This is because English language books are more suitable for Yangon people than rural area. Thanks. Thant


Dear Prof. John Badgley,
We received 500€ from our fleemarket yesterday in Munich (germany). We (the house)would like to support the Mynmar Book Aid with the money. Please let me know how I could transfer to you.
Yours sincerely, Christina Terfloth


Dear Christina Terfloth,
In the name of the readers who will benefit from your consideration, my deep appreciation. Today I will post news of our 2nd container’s safe arrival and the sorting of its 50,000 books into appropriate library shipments. Our Myanmar Book Aid and Preservation Foundation will again host a book charity fair, selling about 10% to raise funds to buy Myanmar language books for school and community libraries. The monsoon prevents us from organizing this as an open air event until September when the rains let up; meanwhile we will continue distributing rice bags of books as we did through the Pyapon monastery to delta schools in March. Perhaps you read a description of that process on our myanmarbookaid.org blog?
Please wire the $500 Euros to United Overseas Bank (UOB) % Nargis Library Recovery….John
