UK societies donate milk

JAKARTA (JP): Members of the Jakarta branches of four British
societies distributed milk to infants at a health service post in
Cibubur, East Jakarta, on Saturday.

British Ambassador Robin Christopher attended the charity
event held by the Royal Society of St George, Yorkshire Society,
St Patrick Society and Java St Andrews Society.

The societies, which has raised over Rp 15 million, were
concerned about the raising cost of basic foodstuffs that means
less mothers would be able to buy milk for their children.

"This initiative was so successful and so gratefully received
that we decided to expand our efforts by inviting other UK
societies to join us," said a member of the Royal Society of St
George.
