The container was released from the port on Friday, June 5, and the truck left that same evening, driving all night to get to Iringa by Saturday morning. The past two weeks have been a difficult experience… navigating the many bureaucratic pitfalls of the clearing process in a port such as Dar es Salaam, Tanzania. We are very thankful that Ray Menard and his assistant in Dar es Salaam, Jerry Diaz, were able to meet with our agency, Bollore, to work out a reasonable solution to several problems…a great job, Ray and Jerry!
This week the container will be unloaded with the assistance of LONAGRO, the John Deere dealer in Tanzania where it will be stored for Steve Strehlow to supervise the reassembly. We thank the LONAGRO people for their help at this critical point in the whole project.
