ITS PUBLIC SUPPORT IS CLOSE TO 33 1/3% BUT DUE TO A LARGE CONTRIBUTION THAT HAS OCCURRED AT THE END OF THE YEAR THAT IS NEVER ASSURED UNTIL IT IS RECEIVED BRINGS IT BELOW 33 1/3%. 2. ONLY TWO OF THE SIX BOARD MEMBERS HAVE EXCESS CONTRIBUTIONS THAT LOWER THE PUBLIC SUPPORT. MOST OF THE BOARD MEMBERS DO NOT CONTRIBUTE PERSONALLY TO THE ORGANIZATION AND REPRESENT PEOPLE INTERESTED IN THE WORK OF THE ORGANIZATION OR HAVE EXPERTISE IN THE SUBJECT AND SUPPORT IT BY ATTENDING MEETINGS. ALL OF THE BOARD MEMBERS ARE INDEPENDENT OF EACH OTHER AND THE LARGEST CONTRIBUTOR DOES NOT HAVE A SPECIFIC RELATIONSHIP TO ANY BOARD MEMBER.3. THE ORGANIZATION HAS PROVIDED PRINT AND INTERNET RESOURCES BY CREATING DICTIONARIES OF THE ANCIENT SCRIPT AND BY DIGITIZING LIBRARIES IN VIETNAM, THEREBY OPENING ACCESS TO THE CULTURAL PAST OF VIETNAM FOR MODERN VITNAMESE AND FOREIGN RESEARCHERS. |
