第14回ギマラス島ワークキャンプ

期間： 2006年2月18日～2月27日 開催地： ギマラス島タラバハン 参加者： 日本人11名、比人6名、スタッフ十数名 活動内容： ・ワーク（高校に上水道タンクを設置） ・ホームステイ ・高校訪問 ・フレンドシップナイト

ワーク・プロジェクト（養豚場の建設）

サルバシオン公立高校は、上水道（飲み水）の設備がないため、生徒は校内にある井戸水を飲んだり家からミネラルウォーターを持参していました。ここに、上水道の水管（地面を140メートル、深さ20ｃｍ）を埋め、校内に上水道タンクを設置することで、衛生面と金銭面の負担を減らすことができました。

現地の声（サルバシオン高校の生徒からお礼のお手紙）

Dear Japanese Friends

Hello Friends! I'm just one of those students who have enjoyed every minute with you. You know what? I was really really happy of having you as our friends. Imagine, even across the miles and across the oceans, we've got friends like you. But sad to say, you are now leaving again. If you have just known that I have cried that day when you are about to leave our school. That was Friday, February 24. I have cried not only because of happiness but also because of sadness in my heart.

Friends, I really admired what you have done to us. If we try to look backward and recall everything during World War II, Japan and Philippines were never been friends but rather they were mortal enemies. But now I know there is impossible. That is it! Because every Japanese and Filipinos are now friends.

What I can say is that we thank you so much! Thank you for the love as our friends and thank you for the help and support. As one of your friends and at the same time, as a fan, I wanna say I LOVE YOU!!!
Until we meet again ...

Happy trip back home!
