Also as I'm curious about KIVA, and wondering if it can be modified or contextualized and then applied in my current community, hence I'm following KIVA on twitter and would be great if there is opportunity to discuss my concerns with people who knows KIVA…

Are found in every corner of the garden prepared for my grandma’s birthday.
While the wind turbines are powering the garden and main house’s light bulbs. And there are also solar panels as the reserve electricity source. But rarely used as the wind turbines work amazingly.

How many markisa i will get for these ten mangoes??
Talking about barter system, it's been a while since i did that.

Food was bought up xawayx at once. There were no more food supplies in any shops. The economy was all crushed down. All the…See More

The exchange works directly for state and public workers and servants. It gives them credit in exchange for the amount of public work they contribute to the community. The more constructive they are based off a base rate the more credit they recieve.
