Indonesia in Mourn

Disaster after disaster strikes Indonesia recently, with the Mount Merapi eruption and tsunami in Mentawai. The refugees are definitely in need for our support, such as food, clothing, hygiene kit, medicine/ first aid, etc. The volunteers have helped as much as they could, and I know that some of them are genuinely encouraged with their "humanity aspects" regardless they use their own money for their accommodation. So, I take my hats off for them!!However, the situation did not just stop there, the number of refugees in Merapi area keeps on going, and they need all that we can give immediately. I really take my concern for the women, babies and children, they do need hygiene kit and also milk, diapers, clean water and mask. I can't imagine living in a refugee tent with a very limited access of clean water, food, clothing, etc. My heart really breaks watching the news. Stay strong okay guys...The volcano will still active for the next couple of weeks maybe, not knowing when it will release its lava. God, if that happens, for sure people who are still stubborn and insist living near the Merapi area, should be evacuated, so there will be no more dead victims. I hope God help us through these rough times...for those 17,000 refugees or more out there in Merapi and Mentawai, my pray goes to you all. God is helping us...and You, trust!
