Furthermore, in Peru we have a government's organization in charge of "checking" all what the NGOs develop in Peru. IF the things (any thing) are done in the name of the children, if many million of dollars are ask as donation from the public, IF there is a ton of volunteer efforts then WE, all, need to know EVERYTHING that happens. In the biggest possible detail. If OUR private acts can not stand up and keep alive in the front of the eyes of the public opinion then something is wrong, deeply wrong with our acts and behavior. This is not romantic. It is just a normal and correct way to do the things. It is a cultural issue too: as far as I know Scandinavian countries have more power in the hands of the people (assemblies) and they have put less power in the hands of politics or bureaucrats. I say this with the deepest respect for all the other things that you have speak about in your mail message. Best regards, Javier Rodriguez Lima, Peru </body> </html>
