Dear Ichsan,
It is nice to know how you are doing in Indonesia.
I would like to ask you about 1 item in your report.
- We together with some colleagues in Japan (Chiba University) translated
manual of sigtuna DAR 3 from Japanese Society for Rehabilitation of Disabled
Persons in Japanese language to Indonesian and currently I am in process of
finishing it in xhtml 1.0 format. We hope got permit to publish in the our
website
According to your report, you were working with this person in Chiba
University to translate the manual of Sigtuna DAR 3. Do you have whole
documents with you? Have you already checked the whole documents? I was
asked by JSRPD to get somebody to check the translation and I was thinking
of sending the documents to you for the review along with the English
version of the same manual. Please give me the current status and we should
work together on this matter.
Regards,
Miki

Dear Tulsi Ram Basyal.
Fine with me, Of course I still remember all ex-participants of last
training in Bankok may 2006.
I have been for long not posting a message to the dfa source mailing list.
May be you or some participants of the DFA training went to last DAISY
workshop in Korea?
For any of you who was attending the Daisy workshop, please share with us in
this DFA Mailing list .
I myself actually had an invitation for that event, but I got no sponsor so
no go.
A bit info on Daisy in Mitra Netra and Indonesia:
All our talking book production in 2006 are in NCC Only DTB and some are
with Syncronized text.
Up to this August, we in total Produced 161 title of The Daisy Book where
157 title in TOC (NCC) Only and 4 title in Syncronize text. and distribute
its copies to some libraries for the blind in Indonesia, such as:
- Special School In Makassar (South Celebes)
- Special School in Jakarta
- Dria Manunggal in Jogjakarta (Central Java)
- Special School in Klaten (Central Jave)
- MNF in Bandung (West Java)
- Resouce Center in Payakumbuh (West Sumatera)
The following are some activities done at Talking book production section:
- We upgraded 3 Analog studios we have to become Digital Studios equipped
with Multimedia computers which are connected to a network.
- We trained 6 full-time readers on digital recording system using komputer
with "Studio Recorder" software from APH (American Printing House)
- We trained 3 Staff and 1 Programer on creating xhtml 1.0 and CSS 1 & 2
documents for ebook and daisy book
- We trained 2 Daisy Staff and 1 ebook Staff on production of Daisy book
with Syncronized text using Sigtuna DAR3 (2 years ago we trained 6 staff on
TOC/NCC only Daisy book production using Sigtuna Dar 3 as well as Lp Studio
Pro for DTB production with Syncronized text)
- We trained some staff on the use of AD/DA Converter
- Currently we are trying on the use of DTBMaker 2 and 3 to produce Daisy
book in English with English Speach engine to mp3 and are attempting for
Indonesian version of speach engine so that DTB production with synchronized
text will more speed up later.
- We together with some colleagues in Japan (Chiba University) translated
manual of sigtuna DAR 3 from Japanese Society for Rehabilitation of Disabled
Persons in Japanese language to Indonesian and currently I am in process of
finishing it in xhtml 1.0 format. We hope got permit to publish in the our

Dear Friend, Good Morning!
How are you? Hope you are fine there. I have been remembering our tour in
Bangkok, last May, 2006. I hope you are production DAISY books in large
scale. We don't have software in our own language so our production is
depending on ToC only, even though we are producing some reference books for
school & college level. We have used Sigtuna DAR 3 software. Please pay my
best regards to your family. Hope you will write about your welfare &
progress in details. If your country organizes DAISY training program please
let me inform. You are most welcome to visit this country & our
organization.
Thank you!
Yours,
