MV DOULOS IS IN TOWN

Last week, i received a phone call from Ms Ginny who is as a staff member of MV Doulos, dubbed the 'largest floating library in the world' to seek my assistance to help coordinate the publicity for the ship's arrival. Hearing the word MV Doulos, i myself was actually already excited as i could remember vividly when i first set foot on the big ship. And of course i was ever ready to help her to invite members of the media to do coverage on its official opening day to members of the public yesterday , although i couldnt make it myself. But i will surely come and visit the ship with my family members in tow. According to Ginny, it will be the ship's last call in Kuching as the ship is almost 100 years old and may no longer travel round the world. So u folks out there, do take the opportunity to visit this wonderful ship before Jan 2, 2009 and have a look at the more than 6,000 books available on board. i am sure there are some books that are of interest to u ...See u there!

ya ngal. mv doulus reminds me of the years gone by - the traditional way of promoting books around the globe. not only is the ship a century old but the advent in technology has deemed it uneconomical, i guess. anyway, the doulus voyage around the world will always be remembered.:)

Last trip? Then I better go as soon as I'm able. Will not get another opportunity like this ever again. The ship isn't just about books fair, they also provide practical aid and sharing a message of hope in God through mission work.
