Today I visited Fundong. I was not part of my work program; but Clarence was insistant that I visit his village. He arranged an invitation fron the First Assistant to the Senior Divisional Officer, who send his official car to pick me up. We visited places around the town including this waterfall. They apologized for the fact that this was the dray season and there was only a trickle of water. It must be magnificent in the rainy season. As a visitor to the country of the Kom people, I was presented with a wonderfully embroidered tunic and hat which is unique for the district.
