BOS Projects
BOS Foundation is an Indonesian non-profit, non-governmental, environmental organization dedicated to the conservation of orangutans and their habitat through the involvement of local people. BOS started as a group of researchers of the Tropenbos Kalimantan Program and the school children of Balikpapan in 1991 and formalized its existence in 1994 through the incorporation of the Balikpapan Orangutan Society (BOS).
After the great fires of 1997/1998 hundreds of orangutan victims needed to be dealt with in a large scale operational way and the Balikpapan Orangutan Survival Foundation was established.
In 2003, with the further expansion of the activities to other locations in Kalimantan and many more activities being supported through some 12 partner organisations abroad, the name was changed to the Borneo Orangutan Survival Foundation.
Starting off with a few orangutan babies in 1991, BOS is presently taking care of more than 750 orangutans and has released more than 400 orangutans to suitable forests in East Kalimantan, and more than 100 to forest islands in Central Kalimantan.
BOS consists of a group of some 350 dedicated permanent experts and staff, presently running the worlds’ largest primate conservation project in cooperation with the Indonesian Ministry of Forestry and it is audited by PriceWaterhouseCoopers.
The foundation has a board of directors, supervised by Ir. Djamaludin Suryohadikusumo, former Minister of Forestry of the Republic of Indonesia, who is also the patron of the foundation. The board of directors is assisted by the scientific advisory board, which comprises orangutan experts and other specialists from Indonesia and around the world.
The board of the Borneo Orangutan Survival Foundation supervises the operational office of the foundation which is based in Jakarta, Indonesia.
Bos International offers assistance to BOS members related to marketing, fundraising and campaign issues. We are furhtermore looking into new markets to raise the much needed funds. We have Member Organisations in Germany, Denmark, Sweden, the Netherlands, the US and the UK as well as partners in Switzerland, Japan and Australia.

Jun 29, 2009 9:14 PM Subject: A Thomas note for Michael & My Dear Friends per THOMAS Body: Dear Friends,
I was raised in Cleveland after life on my Grandparent's farm in Red Hill, Virginia. While in Cleveland, my Father exposed me to the most magnificent classical recordings extant. Now, I must let all of you in on the best kept secret in our neighborhood.
Michael Palmieri, modern classical composer, and a Top Friend of mine on multiple sites here, has been discovering veritable gems of video clips from the Google YouTube network and posting them on his blog on his site. For the past few months, I have been treated to some of the most astonishing classical masterpieces as I listened to these composers and superb musicians perform.
I know that the musical offerings in our neighborhood are vast. The immensity and breadth of the musicians on myspace is mind boggling; however, I would strongly encourage you to visit his page for less than 5 minutes per day to listen to what he has brought to our neighborhood. While there, drop a few lines of appreciation in Michael Palmieri's blog comment section, for the musicians who have stood head and shoulders above the rest, to enrich the world, on a cultural and musical level, for all of us.
Not a day goes by that I don't stop by Mr. Palmieiri's site to listen to these fine musicians and join in the discussion, or merely to make a keen observation.
Ever wondered what to do in the event of a nuclear threat?
A while ago I found stuff that inspired me to make this film:
Living Under the Shadow of the Nuclear Umbrella
Both artistic (ensure you get the background music!) and educational, it primarily comprises official British government civil defence advice.
Though source materials are quite aged, much remains relevant today.
I encourage all to visit the YouTube page to learn more (Show support! Rate! Comment!) and responsibly circulate as widely as possible, here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UaIim3Rj7L4
On your birthday I wish you much pleasure and joy; I hope all of your wishes come true. May each hour and minute be filled with delight, And your birthday be perfect for you! Best Wishes xx
