<div>Second, I'd like to help the best I can and would appreciate if the persons copied with this email can identify themselves and tell us what steps have been taken by the Canadian NGO before the shipment (also, which department or division of the customs or Ministry of Finance have they applied for tax exemptions please?) </div>

Washington<br>University and University of Maryland. They built a school last year in<br>Ambatoharanana, Madagascar. The students have arrived in the village but<br>the computers are being held by customs in Tana. They are demanding $6500<br>in duty! These computers are a donation and are to go a school. They are<br>not for re-sale. If you can think of a way to help we would be very<br>grateful.<br>Joseline- Lila is with the Madagascar Mission to the United Nations in New<br>York. I spoke with her on the phone and explained the customs problems. <br>Lets hope she can help us.<br>Cheers<br>June Kleider<br>415-868-0722<br><br></div></div></div></blockquote></div></td></tr></table><br>
