earthquake BOHOL AREA

[Michael Parnham]

According to the 'on location' news teams in Bohol it doesn't look like that much help is getting mobilised.
Those poor folks most in need of simple basic support seem to be getting the least help.

Unfortunately they have no money Peter, that's the way it is in corrupt third world countries!

Now is the time for Governments to put differences aside and help!!...we are all aware of the the blantant corruption going on there and the country's unwillingness to intergrate with the west but, nows not the time for that

How about relief from the skies..this is what normally happens when communities are cut off..Fred mentioned Turkey and Hati, their was no end of help for these 2 countries

I'm in no doubt that the Philippines has enough money to ensure shelter and food for those affected.
Certainly they put aside more than enough for these events, the problem seems to be locating it and delivering it

I think Peter was refering to global help, Michael
