When work is Play and play becomes work.

She decided to get down and dirty with mud up to her knees, She is doing instead of  marvelling at what others do and she came all the way from Canada to do this.; she is 19. 

They stayed for more than two weeks working and playing in the foothills of Lintang, in Sik, Kedah, a place they only knew from the Internet. They have left not only  their footprints in the mud but they have also planted seedlings that will grow into rice that will feed many in the not too distant future. What money cannot buy is the satisfaction of knowing this at such early age for they are the world's pioneer in Global Connection. 

Never in their dreams would they be working alongside those of their age coming from distant lands, it has affected their lives in no small ways. This will something they will hand down for generations to come in the village they have called home, a village that has become known Globally.

He knew his son's future will be bright if he keeps on fostering this project come what may. It may not earn him much financially but it will guarantee a window of opportunity for his son to know that there is a world out there. if he chooses to venture out himself. No more is his son shy or afraid to be among strangers. 

The men who has set out to make it happen, stepping outside of their boxes and risking everything that they may help to build a better life and society clean from the affects of major corporations and the desecration of the environment. They are determined to go organic, back to the old ways of cultivation of crops and way of life. 

There are many today that has no idea what the earth smells like or feels like, nor do they care to or want to, but one day they will all end up buried in it. Those who live their entire lives in big cities have never seen an earthworm or a leech, nor have they ever heard the call of the howling gibbons very early in the morning; how much of life have they missed out on.
