Learning from mistakes

We all make mistakes including our beneficiaries in Bangkang. Every month our group in Bangkang holds group meeting where they come for saving , making payments  and taking loans.
Last month on March 6th our field officer didn't come to their meeting. It was the first meeting without our presence .With big effort they tried to fill out the documents of saving and loan  because usually our field officer guides them step by step.
When we reviewed the documents, we found some mistakes and realized that they  haven't completely understood how to fill out the forms.
Today in their group meeting we assisted them to find the mistakes  and how they can be solved. Finally they understood and have learned from their mistakes.  The group leader and the book keepers worked together to fill out all the documents by themselves . Ina Marta  finally understands how to calculate the final balance  in their cash box , Hj. Nuraini finally has learned to fill in the number of shares of members in to the general ledger form and  Ina Endang now understands how to fill in the  loan payment form. All of them have learned from their mistakes.
