Phuoc Huynh and Hue Huynh, Australia

Before the tour we had some understanding of the impact of the tsunami. The true extent of the damage caused by the tsunami has become clearer in the past two days. We now have some understanding of the complexities involved in the reconstruction and rehabilitation of Banda Aceh, and the commitment to achieve improvements for the children.

It has been a warming experience to see the work that Education International has done in providing schooling for the kids that have lost so much. This brings some normality and hope to their life.

We will never forget the laughter and smiles of the children’s faces.
