Went to prc as well. I talked with the charity network (exist already) it would be tax deductive and there are so many merits for the donators. > I suspect the real answer is for the ASF to become a recognized NGO - wouldn't > that accomplish tax-deductible, charitable purpose in virtually any country? If "I" say, it will be possible. Do not warry about it. > Of course that means higher standards, and higher costs on the foundation to > be in compliance with a UN NGO charter. NO NEED. no requirement for it. ---- To be honest, Why i became the individual sponsor of the asf at first -- 1. Show so many people that "individual" can be the sponsor "in reality" 2. Show Japanese Company there is an individual who spent money to ASF However. about (2) Tax Return Issue existed (of course I knew, but ..) and there were not. It was really sad because many uses apache software in Japan. Please understand my motivations etc. I am not wanting to do only for myself. I AM DOING "WHAT IS RIGHT!!" i think. Thank you very much. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Tetsuya Kitahata -- Terra-International, Inc. - President - E-mail: <kitah...@99.alumni.u-tokyo.ac.jp> http://www.terra-intl.com/ Apache News Online http://www.apachenews.org/ == When you think doing the business to Japan, etc. (Multi-Byte), you must == think purchasing well-known soft Commercial License: http://an.to/b21e FAX: +1-4083512810 (USA) / +81-345209534 (Japan) / +44-2033182683 (UK) Tel: +81 3-3454-8090 (Tokyo, Japan) Tel: +1 801-938-5635 (Midvaile, Utah, USA) Tel: +1 408-549-1471 (San Jose, California, USA) Tel: +44 20-8133-5458 (London, United Kingdom) Tel: +82 70-7893-4581 (Seoul, South Korea) Tel: +85 281-701-209 (Hong Kong, China) Tel: +52 55-8421-4589 (Mexico City, Mexico) Tel: +55 11-3711-4245 (San Paulo, Brazil) Tel: +64 09-889-3431 (Auckland, New Zealand) Tel: +45 65-74-50-12 (Copenhagen, Denmark) Tel: +41 44-586-1233 (Zurich, Switzerland) Tel: +61 2-8011-4078 (Sydney, Australia) Tel: +27 1-1083-5458 (Capetown, South Africa) Tel: +356 3550-0809 (Valletta, Malta / EU) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: community-unsubscr...@apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: community-h...@apache.org
