The team could not set off today as planned. We are in a bid of a bind over high costs of transport. The sponsor who has pledged to loan us his truck withdrew for personal reasons.
At the moment, we are still bargaining for a reasonable price. The quote is Ks 4.5 lakh currently. Hopefully, we can bring it down to about 2.5-3 lakh. In view of this, we may not be able to hire two trucks.
Otherwise, the team is ready to set off; all food and aid supplies have been procured, and repacked for distribution.
The team plans to leave tomorrow. They will try to set off early tomorrow morning so that it could be a day trip. We are trying to cut down as much as possible on transport and accommodation costs. They will also pack cooked lunches to keep costs low.
