An Announcement from the Management

To all friends who have or have not worked with us,

Please do not offer any financial help to anyone who claims to be working with KICVOP, unless you have consulted the management of KICVOP. We have received several cases of our former volunteers offering financial help to youngsters who claimed to be working with us. The money was in the end never recovered and wasted for some personal gains.

Please be also aware that KICVOP will not ask for any financial help from you either through the organisation or our employees. All people who are officially qualified to work with us have been listed on our website: www.kicvop.org

If you have any concerns, please do not hesitate to contact me,

Email Address: landonmeng@gmail.com

Best regards,

Landon
Programme Coordinator of KICVOP

Talking to John Again

I was glad to hear John saying yesterday afternoon I 120% deserved my job. When I told him in the end I was making 19 this September, he told me to "fuck off". He firmly believed my age was between 22 to 26.

When we were talking something about my past, he asked me why I did the things I did. I hesitated for a while in answering his question. Then I replied,

"If my sacrifice can make others' lives better, why should I not thus sacrifice? If all those benefits can be created and received by others for only me is to be blamed, is it not the best thing on earth for me to do?"

I can hardly tolerate the truth of a zero-sum game in life or an occasion where people "hurting others by torturing themselves"
