Well,
The worlds biggest donors really shook the Asian "Tsunami" hit countries.
Here is the report HOW.
The USA "pledged" $857 million to the Tsunami hit but "allocated" just $366 million.
Australia "pledged" $739million but "allocated" just $136 million
Germany "pledged" $643 million but "allocated" just $126 million
Canada "pledged" $341 million but "allocated" just $125 million.
ISN't That Shocking?
On the other Hand JAPAN "pleadged" $500 million but "allocated" $552 million.
