After powerful earthquake in China, there were at least 400 people died and more than thousands were injured. The magnitude 6.9 quake in Yushu country, Qinghai province. ShelterBox has sent one rescue team into China earthquake area. They were sending 500 tents and clothing and quilts for 1000 people. They said the major problem they are facing is lack of tents. The situation in several villages in the mountain is still unknown and roads and communications have been cut. There is widespread destruction and they need our help.
The Red cross said an assessment team from Qinghai province was in the region, and another more charity agencies from Beijing would join them in 1 day. All of charity agencies will decide quickly with their team what help they should give and where should they send a team to help. They knew that it will be vital to get medical supply and medicines to Yushu country as fast as possibleto help the survivors.
The rescue was co-ordinated by Chinese government and British. China have experience of dealing with natural disasters. They can solve the problem well. Most of the buildings in the town were wrecked, and landslides have cut off roads. Hundreds of survivors had been pull from the rubble. In 2008, a huge earthquake struck in Sichuan province, about 800km from Yushu. It left 87,000 people dead or missing and 5 million were homeless.
In my opinion, when people are facing to this problem the government should do something that will make those life better. After this situation, the government or wealthy people should establish the organization that directly to this disaster for victim to better life. This problem is the one of the biggest problem that unavoidable in our world but still have some problem that people are facing that we are not know and seen.
