trouble. In a recent traffic accident,
Mrs Mason said a cow was seriously
injured by a jeep. The driver and
car occupants were set upon by angry people.
More notice is taken of the death of a cow
than of a person.
Recently they passed an anti-bull law
which has taken all the bulls off the streets.
The cows remain, however.
Jan. 27 - Hired a taxi for half day to
take movies. Got shots of man washing
clothes on sidewalk, cow pies placed on
tree trunks, etc, people bathing, little girl
gathering water hyacinth (?), sacred cows,
man sleeping on sidewalk, street scene,
white egrets & cattle, water buffalo by pool
on road to airport, woman carry basket of
fresh dung on her head.
Saw a stick-like lizard strike through
the grass at side of drainage ditch at
road side near turn off to airport. This is
a rural area with numerous water tanks (earthen
reservoirs (?) or ponds), thatched roofs & woven
glass fibers, banana trees.
To return to problems of Asian education.
One of my contacts has suggested that
the recipe approach to science may be
needed because of the rudimentary
educational level with which we are
dealing.
Mrs Mason's address is 241 By 2 Tower
Circuter Rd.
