There are other related articles but I think it becomes obvious the problems at this school involve political and social issues that foreigners should not be getting in the middle of. There are other schools and other children where much more good could be done. It is regrettable that foreigners, especially the Rotary, have unwittingly become mixed up in such a controversial endeavor, but I believe cultural and language barriers along with ignorance of local socio-political issues (such as the relationship between squatters and politicians) have played a notable role in that respect along with a few egos and an apparently odd stubbornness by a few who have appeared unwilling to recognize they've been used: admittedly never an easy pill to swallow.
