CURSE may be reactionary, but they are the most cosmopolitan people to have every lived. Even the most isolated and untouched village in the most obscure mountainside has been socially-engineered by CURSE. Every time something bad happens in China, Japan, Thailand, or Korea it's the legacy of white colonialism, which is impressive because none of those countries were ever colonized by white people. Except in secret, I assume.
I wasn't sure what I was looking at at first but now see it's two pictures, one of the cliff face presumably viewed from a helicopter (because if not, the girls would follow the photographer) but more importantly, why not build the school in the village? Or move the village? And another picture looking down the rope ladder. There seems to be very selective provision of technology. Synthetics requiring gigantic oil refineries for the backpacks and cameras requiring [various, depending on the type of camera -ed.]
..anyway, a time expired helicopter requiring basic attention to its frame and servicing its simple engine——we're not talking luxury machines here——would cost less than a single humanitarian mission and they can't be too difficult to fly. And even if it were, I'm pretty sure that girl at the top of the rope ladder would be first in line to master the device. I'd give her a week. Anything would be better than that ladder. Are they going up or down?
