Any where in this world you go contractors are the same. They say they can do the job, start the project, accept half down, the disappear to another project. Liberia is no different. Despite delays Dr. Nick's continues to be built.
There are no power tools and only the basic hand tools are used. Cement is mixed with a shovel and hauled in a bucket. The carpenter has one saw, a hammer, and measuring tape.
As of today, the walls have all been plastered, ceiling installed, electrical conduit run, and shelving constructed. The cement floor is still not finished. It is beginning to look like something.
