Tsunami Donator Countries: Australia is king
Don Jacob:
is there some international competition out there that i'm not aware of , how come every post i see it's " oh this country gave this much and this country gave that much , haha we're better because we gave more" i'm not saying that this post is like this but in my opinion it really doesn't matter how much more one country gives over another , the only amount that should matter is if they're getting enough to get back to where they use to be, all the meaning of giving is worthless if all you're doing is making a competition out of it.
Jome:
^^ It's just interesting to see how much each country gives, compared to what they're good for/capable of..
And it's also interesting to see the total picture of how much is given, the total amount is crazy, but it's a good cause.
Thirteen:
your numbers for australia are wrong jome
Australia: 815 million
just because they pledge a Billion of thier dollars mean it's actually a billion
Jome:
Well, they promised a billion, they might have given 815 mill of them yet..
Thirteen:
the rpomised a billion aussie bucks, and on the world market is becomes somewhere along the lines of $725 million
it's a shame this had to happen to have all these countries come together and make a tsunami warning system, australia and japan said they're help make one now
