    About the 10.000 dead in the Philipines perhaps? Been following the news lately? It's probably much worse they just started counting.

    Popular support, aka as private donations got Indonesia 160 million at the time from here when they got slapped by a tsunami. If the Dutch citizens can raise that than 2 million is a bit of a joke considering the circumstances.
