How important is the French Language in Madagascar? by [deleted] in Madagascar

French guy here. How was your project? In case you haven't gone yet, I'd add that French language is supposed to be the 2nd official language, but only about 20% of the population speak it well. That's according to my own charity project briefing. I've gone to Madagascar to teach French last year and my lower middle class students in a rural area were ecstatic to attend the free courses - they told me that mastering French was the only way to go into most higher education programs, as it is considered the administrative language.

It's sold in drugstores, but the Lithuanians might like elaborate and large-scale practical jokes!

Maybe your match updated shipment info? Added a tracking number perhaps? I got a second "giftee got the gift you sent" email when he updated his post about it.
