Found an interesting article about the re-building process in Aceh. For anyone whose heard us moan about the frustrations we had...it's a good read. Particularly true is this quote:


The report's authors wrote pointedly that the "generous funding" available for the tsunami response meant the "humanitarian industry" was "deprived of its customary excuse for built-in systemic shortcomings". Moreover, many of the systemic issues listed had been identified as much as a decade ago, in the aftermath of the international response to the slaughter in Rwanda.
