There have been tears and sorrow. Even inside the older kids. Why prolonging it? So a number of organizations around Yogyakarta, by their own, created events. From education to entertainment and games.

And the volunteers at STIE YKPN Yogyakarta were involved. In fact, most of them were so personally attached to the kids such that in a meeting to decide the continuation of their refugee camp, they refused to send the refugees to other camp and close this one down.

Here are a few highlights of the happy moments.
