Yeah Australia has sent some relief efforts to.

I heard today that the company I work for has donated 50,000 to the red cross to assist with relief efforts.

Also Megabot I know that the stress of you brother being in the area must be frustrating but there is no need for the language that you were trying to hide.

We just updated it last night to 40 million dollars!

At times I feel I want to jump out of my seat and run to the Airport to get on a plane and help out.

[/QUOTE]That's probably a much bigger help, most of all that money doesn't reach it's intended destination anyway.

That's the kicker. In most areas there are surplus amounts of volunteer helpers onhand. What is really needed is heavy machinery to clear debris, medicine to prevent disease, food and fresh water to prevent starvation, and skilled workers such as doctors and engineers to help administer relief. Of course, aid workers need money to pay for all of these things: distribution and transportation alone will cost a fortune. So donating money to 'reputable' relief agencies would be the best way that unskilled western civilians can help out in this scenario.

Qantas (the airline I work for) has donated a million dollars and free travel to anyone wanting to leave the area and come back to Australia. It is also sending free cargo for aid and seats for doctors and such.

The USA and Bush is doing all they can. Don’t forget the USA is a very long way away. Money and volunteers is not the problem but those items that Hiero said. also organization is a huge problem.
