Minister starts duties
at Greenway church
(The following is a periodic
newsletter sent from Andy
Ryskamp presently serving in
Feni, Bangladesh with the
Christian Reformed Chum in
agricultural development. An
employee of the Ailsa Craig Co-
/ Op for four years before going to
Bangladesh, he was very active
in the community and has many
friends in the area). Dated
August 15 '754My friends in Ailsa
Craig:
Today I really feel like a news
correspondent. Most of you know
that song, "There is a Kind of
Hush All Over The World". That
is what it is like here in Feni
today. Shops are closed, the
roads are empty of buses and
only a few people. Everyone is
gathered in village homes where
someone has a radio so they can
hear the latest news of what is
happening in the capital, Dacca.
This morning just after breakfast
a friend from town came
strolling in with a distressed look
on his face, saying that the
country's president Shiek
Meyshik had been shot during the
night and that martial law was
being proclaimed. As a result we
are under 24 hour curfew.
Up tp now the curfew has given
me a chance to catch up on my
paper work and to write friends
who have been waiting for letters
for awhile.Hopefully no further
bloodshed will take place, but at
the time of writing (August 15) I
do not know what the situation is
in Dacca,
This morning I wrote up three
experiments in potato, sorghum
and sunflowers which we share
with the government. They ap-
preciate work done on the farm
related level. I hope the new
government strengthens the bond
between the extension unit and
the farmer for it is through this
system the farmer gets such
needed imputs on fertilizer,
credit, seeds, etc.
There is rich potential here for
agricultural development and it
only needs a motivated extension
unit to help the farm realize that
potential, Although it is with
some hesitancy most people
seem to be looking for a chance
for the better under martial law.
My Honda has been com-
plaining about all the meters it
has put on lately so it is getting a
rest today also. We are starting a
new program in a district in the
north. That is an eight hour ride
including four hours on an up-
stream ferry. Making contacts
and arranging for housing to sort
out westerners was the order of
the week.
The heavy rains seem to have
stopped and the vegetables,
wheat, corn and potato season is
approaching fast. So lots of work
ahead. That must be what makes
the time go fast because it is over
a year ago when I left good, old
Ailsa Craig.
A few weeks ago I returned
from holidays in which I had the
chance to stop in seven Asian
countries from Thailand through
Indonesia up to Japan. A real
good experience, both as a
holiday and for meeting people in
