We hope to be able to convince members to examine their international relationships by organising meetings with their Friendship Links, intensifying their social activities working ONLY with Soroptimist clubs instead of passing through other NGOs, and establishing Friendship Links with clubs of the East. The poor situation of the transportation and road infrastructure and the communication network make contact between the various regions of Madagascar particularly difficult for such a vast territory. Regardless of all the difficulties the country is going through, namely economic and financial, the Soroptimists of Madagascar have never given up. A slight improvement in the national network of communications has not diminished the difficulties. Initial efforts by the African regions to work progressively toward a future Federation must be recognised.
External communication is of high priority.
The tendency is that the clubs get more and more attention from the media. We find the questions very interesting and good subjects for discussion on the structure of the organisation. At European level, activities should be intensified and continuous which would lead to a better approach and understanding of our cultures. It is important for their selection of professions. We try to co-ordinate them with Federation and SI guidelines.
