Probably still is.

Thanks....but the GBC zonal assignments 2007 do not mention it:-

So I think its still forgotten.

No books,no bhakti seeds planted...all going to hell!

Just because it is not on a list doesnt mean that it is forgotten or that nothing is going on there.

At the same time, there are many, many places in the world, both on lists and not on lists, where there is urgent need of preaching. All you need to do is buy a ticket, go there, and preach.

Simple really.

what happens with the forgotten then?

I recall reading that the GBC will assign all or most of the countries in the world to a GBC member as a general practice,there may or may not be any Iskcon sanctioned activities going on there,but if there is someday then we would already know who the GBC person is.

Sitapati makes a good point " All you need to do is buy a ticket, go there, and preach.", this is the responsibilty of the GBC, to open new temples.

once some guy was saying that the programs at these ones devotee home are better than those of a sister other one elder devotee from these zone, he said. to me, was more alike that if there arent nor way too much apt to be trained brahmacharis an stiff ppl, preaching and level of demand of KC stablishements may not be suggested or sanctioned to exist anyway, nor the case to demand. in this fact the sanyass order from varnasrama is sanctioners of the brahminical culture, more in the case of Caitanya'b4s Sankirtan movement its tue that Lord Caitanya will accomplish His prediction. the way He might acomplish it is magical.. likewise... as there are not so much of the level of interested ppl then even the bhakti will be polute and deviatedly insolvent, likewise happens on the emotive side of the conglomerate of ppls. i am also sure that prabhupada established 108 out of something... then likewise the others may appear. like, 16.000 more, around places on the world or not. and as that till 450.000 or or the 900.000.. yes, it sounds simple and who'b4s willing, for example that likewise an entire set of books is not so easy to buy say, for me from example.. what to speak of masses or massive distributions of heritage and culture ll arrownd the globe. nor even i do know what are the names of these deities living on each of Srila Prabhupada'b4s temples from stablishment either. i hope i do know them all one day too. Hari bol !

As devotees have inherited the huge task of spreading Krsna consciousness to all towns and villages,and as Iskcon,together with Gaudiya Math, is supposed to be responsible to do the job,it would be wise,during one of GBC sessions,to make a complete list of ALL countries,without forgetting any,mainly those,who are as big as France[Madagascar,20,000,000 inhabitants],where there is urgent need for FFL,as its as bad as Haiti,where children are starving,due to despots ruling,and ignorance of vegetarianism.

Such omission shows that organization should be improved,regarding preaching strategies.Be sure that Christians are much better organized,as they are still invading the whole world with bogus philosophy...and asking hindus to destroy Hanuman,Lord Rama and Lord Krsnas Deities[idol worship]Its happenning even in India!

The GBC,in charge of overseeing a region ,should ensure that all towns and villages,under his care,gets at least a drop of mercy of Lord Caitanya.And during the Mayapura festival of Gaura Purnima,it would be nice to have a big map of the world,with new lights,wherever the Holy Names have been recently given[together with prasadam]

It is,of course,easy to buy a ticket and go preaching anywhere,but the successful organisation doesnt act this way:they train for years or employ qualified people to go and open branches[just look at MacDonald!],making sure that the menu is the same all over the world..Together with the representatives,they send all required equipments,money and manpower,and demand a regular monthly report of their work...if they dont show any sales,theyre fired! Bhakta Tom can go,after struggling for his ticket,and bring a pair of kartals,some books....and may get eaten by cannibals. :)

The proper Ambassador of a powerful country enters by the VIP lounge,and goes directly to the President,with letters of recommendation from his Prime Minister,and all credentials,and explain his intentions..under the flashes and cameras of the media.Devotees are representatives of the Most powerful King of Dwarka!

Prabhupada admired the preaching some strategies of christians,with Archbishops for continents,bishops for countries,and priests for cities...all preaching the same authorised Bible...We should not imitate their killings and inquisitions,though,but invade the whole world with gulab jamuns , Gaura Nitai Deities and Prabhupadas books...

Otherwise,any bhakta Tom and Jerry will go and open a branch[as done in the past],and claim to represent Prabhupada.I do agree,though,that such devotees should be praised,even if they preach independantly...where Iskcon is not present...it may even be a blessing! :)

To Suryavanshi: a special book has been written with all Iskcon Deities,with best professional fotos at:

Conclusion: to all the leaders flying over this huge island,Madagascar,plse send a delegation of devotees,with tons of prasadam....

hari hari HAri BOooOOOOOL !!!
