This issue focuses on a WA Rotary club s hospital project in Cambodia where we recently sent a 1x40 ft full container of Queensland hospital beds. Great initiative. Big commitment. Another item which we highlight is the need for new premises, as before we know it the end of June will arrive and nowhere to go. I estimate we have x 40 containers worth of recyclable goods with 5 planned load up days so we will be cutting it fine. Since over 85% of what we recycle comes from State government organisations, I have contacted the Premier s Inala electoral office for an appointment with her to see if we can obtain a redundant state building or funding to purchase one. We do have prospects but more help would be appreciated. If any Rotarian has any political connections any leads or hints would be good. Bren is now looking for any soccer uniforms or soccer gear, boots etc for kids that he can send to Dilli.
