Not Lost in Translation

Today is the second day of our workshop on Poverty Database and Monitoring for Habitat for Humatiy project in Timor Leste.

We have the questionnaires for the survey but they are in English. I ask them to translate it to Tetun but Alvaro, the finance officer of Habitat said they prefer to transalte it to Bahasa because Bahasa is a more "complete" language".

If all these steps are judiciously followed, then you will find that forklift rental is a simple process and ends in your work getting done with much less overhead costs. One of those suggestions is that you might try buying these parts online. 1600 Brimley Rd. NIOSH reports that in most forklift tip-over incidences fatalities occur because unrestrained drivers try to jump out of falling vehicles.
