The Co-ordinating Committee of the Friends of Indonesia would like to invite you and your friends and family to our 3rd Charitable Golf Tournament. This year tournament will raise funds for the Mercy Ships, which is the largest non-governmental hospital ship in the world. We will also raise funds for the less fortunate children in Indonesia to support the ongoing education of the children and to benefit their families.
The tournament will be held on September 21, 2010 at the Canadian Golf & Country Club just west of Ottawa. This friendly golf game (shot gun start/best ball format) will begin at 1.00 PM sharp followed by dinner and Indonesian cultural dance performances by the Indonesian Community in Ottawa.

FOI wishes to thank you most heartily for your presence at our Charitable Valentine Dinner at the Korea Garden Restaurant. Your participation was the sole reason why we have such a successful and enjoyable dinner, and at the same time show our solidarity and contribution to the Haitian Earthquake victims.
We were able to raise $850.00. We realize that our contribution may just be a drop in the ocean, but it is a profound symbol of our sincere care in order to share our grief and sympathies to help victims rebuild a new Haiti from their ruins. The presence of Mdm Marjorie Auguste Damas as First Secretary of the Embassy of Haiti is a clear indication of their appreciation to our initiative as well.

Around 6,800 out of the total 3 million toddlers in East Java are at severe risk of malnutrition, says the province’s deputy governor.
Saifullah Yusuf said Thursday the problem was caused by poor parenting skills, underfeeding and diseases, tempointeraktif.com reported.
“The toddlers must receive adequate nutrition,” Saifullah told a forum in Sidoarjo.
Malnutrition cases have mostly occurred in villages in the province, where mothers are more reluctant to breast-feed their children, he added.
