to visit again. The project was carried
out since November 2005 - February
2006. The total post cards that were
sent were 5000. The cards were written
in English, Spanish, German. For the
children that wrote the post cards,
Meliá Bali donated Rp. 500.
- Total donation that the resort gave
was 2,5 Million Rupiah. With this
project, children are trying to be
encouraged to practice the language
that they learn from school. This
is also a good way to remind tourists
to come back to Bali as part of the
recovery program after the Bali Bomb
II in October 2005. (BTN/*)
