about giving aid..

something very happend to me a couple months back when i went to thailand for a trip.
We had a dutch host (wich hadnt been to holland for years) for the trip and offcourse somewhere along the lines the Tsunami popped up.. so i was proud to tell him about holland and how many cash we brought in to help thailand at that time.

as i can still recall the world brought in hundreds of million to a foundation for thailand.

and you know what he told me..

"thailand never seen a penny of that money, we have rebuild this country on our own."

funny is, i believe him 100%, he wasnt joking, he was 100% absolutely sure that thailand cleaned up their own mess upthere, and you have to keep in mind, thailand is not a 3rd world country, its a very rich country compared to the rest of asia.

the media is so screwed
