My meeting with Audrey Aumura exceeded all my modest expectations.

Audrey is downright overwhelmed with what has gotten rolling with the drinking water project.

With the documents on the technical details, I was able to explain to her in my own words how the system works for Gizo Hospital. She asked me if I had already submitted it to the Ministry – no, I don’t know who.

Then, using the photos of Fiji, I explained to her how the Emergency Kit from Trunz works.

All of a sudden she was very excited and shouted: “That’s it, that’s what we need from the WHO for all the islands to alleviate the greatest drinking water emergency”. I was then speechless. With the available fund, tens of such devices can be purchased.

But that’s not all. I had taken a copy of my fictitious business case for malaria control, which I had created during my studies, to the meeting. Audrey was completely blown away. That would be the hammer and must be passed on immediately to the WHO and the Ministry. Again, she sees a solution for malaria control in the Solomon Islands.

I did not expect such a successful meeting.

I look forward to seeing more of “my” drinking water project and fictional business case soon.
