Orphanage Home Janda Baik in a new place

Saturday morning 3 March 2007 my friend Nor and I went to the orphanage home in Janda Baik - Rumah Kebajikan Nur Zaharah. Previously, their place was at Sum Sum Hilir, Janda Baik. But due to the increased of rental by the landlady, they have to find another place to put the children. It was quite troublesome for them actually, but they have no choice.

Even though somebody has donated a land to build a new home for them, but the construction will take time. At the moment, the earthwork in already ongoing. There are kind people who have provided the fund to build up the buildings for them. How I wish I'm very rich so that I can contribute to them too... At the moment, my contribution is only to visit them once a month... that's the least I can do now.

This new place that they are renting is farther inside the village of Janda Baik. But it's quite a nice place. Formerly was a resort - a longhouse style with fish ponds and fruit orchard around. I love to see the greeneries around the place. But nearby the area, the landlord is also rearing goats. So it will bring some uncomfortable smell, especially after rain.

But that's the best place they can get at the moment... Hope they'll make do with it. If you have time, and feel like visiting them, or want to send some contribution, please call Encik Yahya bin Yusof tel. 012-627 1549.
