  1. With Balinese friends I visited Wayan Kuat on June 19. We brought some groceries and small amount of money.
    As Wayan cannot come to the ATM herself, please take care that someone you trust can do that for her.

  2. @Lynda. We will find out if we could make a bank account for her, we’ll let you know the progress via email. Thank you.
