Prayer request for small sewing business

This comes from a friend who established a work in a town in Asia. The project is a really neat thing that has had a tremendous impact on some families and has blessed the whole community in a variety of ways.

I just got an e-mail from Anala* at the Craft Co-op*; the local government has threatened to shut us down unless we pay all the workers [a set monthly salary]. According to the law last fall, we could pay by the piece.

Pray for wisdom for the overseers as they deal with this new crisis!
If we pay by the hour...
(1) we do not have enough money to keep going.
(2) the women would slow down and spend their time talking, etc.

Also, please pray for more orders.

Thanks!
