Sobre IBD

In 1976, while attending a short course in Jakarta, a Bangladeshi youth gets to know the course instructor - Emil J Burcik, an American Professor. The brief meeting leads to an unprecedented journey that continues to run deep four and a half decades later.While military might, economic strength and democracy make a country powerful, it is people’s kindness and generosity that make a nation great. Burcik is one of many who, for generations to come, will continue to symbolize America’s greatness.
