Return to index of stories...
Hello. I'm Beth Carroll. Welcome to New Hampshire Outlook.
It's been 18 months since the devastating tsunami swept through Southeast Asia killing hundreds of thousands of people.
30-year-old Fahmi Yunus of Indonesia survived the disaster but lost most of his family.
He's working to rebuild his community and he's getting some help from Southern New Hampshire University.
Outlook's Phil Vaughn first met Yunus last spring just months after the tsunami left his life in ruins.
He since returned to his homeland and is now back in New Hampshire and Phil caught up with him again to find out how he's doing.

Fahmi Script
Shots in classroom
N1- This is the School of Community Economic Development at Southern NH University. Students from more than a hundred countries earn their Master's Degrees here. Fahmi Yunis is one of them.
Fahmi 200 "My grandfather and mother were teachers…and that's why I'm very interested in education programs especially for the youth."
N2 - Fahmi's home is Banda Aceh. It's a coastal city - the capital of Aceh province. You'll find it on the northern tip of Sumatra in Indonesia.
Fahmi 311 "It was very nice place with a seacoast, it was a very great place with mountains and very nice people."
N3- Banda Aceh is also one of the first places hit by the December, 2004 tsunami.
Fahmi 245 "The population before the tsunami was about 4,400,000 people."
N4 - 100,000-200,000 persons living in Aceh were killed when the tsunami hit. Fahmi's loss was nearly total.
Fahmi 507 "I lost my parents, my wife - she was pregnant and I lost many other relatives."
N5- His uncle and sister survived the disaster.
Fahmi 528 "It is amazing she's still alive. My sister lives in Aceh but works in Jakarta, but fortunately she's safe. It's a miracle, so she's the only living relative that I have now."
Anthony 2840 "He's here on a tsunami scholarship."
N6- Anthony Poore is director of admissions at the School of Community Economic Development. In 2005, the school offered five scholarships to people working on community development in tsunami affected areas.
Anthony 2900 "There was a lot of financial resources going into the area in terms of capital resources. We as how do we add to the intellectual resources of the community? You can do that through education and you fund that education thru scholarships."
Fahmi 615 "My sister and uncle encouraged me to pursue my master degree."
N7- Students earn that degree by creating a community development project here and implementing it back home.
Anthony 2955 "His is based around education in terms of looking at the mobile schools because of the destruction of the school buildings and loss of teachers - sort of taking the mountain to Mohammed."
Fahmi 705 "Phil -Why is it important for you and sister that you do this? Great question - besides my parents work as education worker - I had this talk with my sister that even when we are in trouble we have to concentrate on education - that's what my parents taught me about education since I was a child. I think that if we have problem one of the solutions is if you have a good education. I think education is one of the most important things especially in Aceh."
N8- Fahmi says that following the tsunami, 70% of senior high school students failed the national exit exam.
Fahmi 1005/920 "Mostly I think its because of the disaster. After the disaster they don't have school rooms anymore and they lost teachers and maybe they have trauma. The consequences are that if you fail the test they can't continue to higher level - that's why I think it's very important."
N9- Last summer, Fahmi left the university and returned home to put theory into practice.
Fahmi 430/130 "My project focuses on one school - a jr. high school. I'm not alone. I worked with my friend they like to help me. So we work as volunteers to work with the students."
N9- And that's what they've been doing over the past year -- teaching English and creative studies - helping students get back on their feet. Fahmi says Aceh is slowly recovering and the national high school exam scores have rebounded, as well.
Fahmi 252/220 "Generally, in Aceh, the numbers are getting high. I read in the paper that overall about 88% of the students pass the test."
N10- Fahmi doesn't take credit for the turn-around in test scores. As he'll tell you, he's one small person helping many survive a very large problem. What he does offer the students is an example of what is possible.
Fahmi 655 "Some of my students also lost family and houses and I said we are in the same position. I said you know I study in the US what about you? - you can do it too. Everyday I give them spirit and I think that's very important."
Anthony 3505 "Phil- What impresses you most about Fahmi? His strength and inner will to survive. Here's a guy who loses everyone and still pushes forward - not only for himself but for others in his community. That's what impresses me most about Fahmi."
N11 - For NH Outlook, I'm Phil Vaughn.

The next time you go hiking, no need to leave Fido at home.
Dogs love the outdoors too and can be a lot of fun on a hike.
But, how do you know if your pet is up for the trek, what to bring along, and whether or not the trail is "dog-friendly".
A new GUIDE book: "Best Hikes with Dogs: NH & VT" answers those questions and more.
It's written by Lisa Densmore,
a familiar face to our NHPTV audience as HOST of WildLife Journal.
Lisa has been an avid hiker for 30 years.
In the way of Research for the book she and her pet pooch BRAVO as well as a few others hiked 3-to 4 trails a week covering some 300 miles in the summer of 2004.
This is the summit of Mt. Major -- which offers a spectacular view of Lake Winnipesaukee

As you recall, in December 2004, a massive earthquake beneath the Indian Ocean sent a tsunami ashore in several continents killing hundreds of thousands of people. Indonesia was hit hard and today recovery efforts are still underway. Fahmi Yunus survived the disaster and is working to rebuild his community and he's receiving help from Southern New Hampshire University. Outlook's Phil Vaughn first met him last spring while he was here in New Hampshire, just five months after the tsunami left his life in ruins. After returning to his homeland, Fahmi is back in the state and we had the chance to find out how things are going for him.
