What really struck me, watching people being interviewed as they returned from Thailand.....they were all describing how the local Thais rescued them, ran into the water to help them, helped them even when they were losing everything themselves. I'm so impressed with how the Thais and Indonesians are dealing with the disaster. OK, it's taking time to get organised, but they're helping each other, clearing the bodies, people are queuing for food and water, I admire them tremendously. There doesn't seem to be any money/help being pledged from the oil-rich countries in the region :^(
