Thanks for that video link. For some reason my audio wouldn't play but he looks like he's pretty talented. I sure hope all of the people still missing are just bunched up somewhere waiting to get word out that they are okay.

I can't begin to image what the family members of all of these missing people are going through.

All of those people just being pushed into mass graves, being burned in big piles or just washed out to sea......

Just awful.

Friends and Relatives Searches for Information About Missing Persons After Tsunami on Internet

The website http://www.p-h-u-k-e-t.com exceeds 650,000 visits in 48 hours

(PRWEB) December 31, 2004 -- Thailand/Sweden/Norway, December 30th, 2004: "The website www.p-h-u-k-e-t.com has received more than 650,000 visits over the past 48 hours from friends and relatives in search of missing persons after the tragedy that hit Asia on December 26.

A group of volunteers in Phuket, Thailand, came together and established the website shortly after the tragedy was a fact. The service became extremely popular within hours. With help from people in Sweden and Norway additional IT resources was made available and the website currently handles an average of 3-4000 simultaneous visitors constantly.

Several visitors have reported that they have found information about their missing persons or have been able to contact people that have confirmed the whereabouts of the persons they have been looking for.

With the help of national and international media we hope to be of service as long as needed. This initiative is strictly non-profit and is run on a voluntary basis without any form of advertising or other compensation."

In an effort to help reunite friends and families affected by the tsunami in southern Thailand, Bumrungrad Hospital is providing a list of patients that are being or have been treated at our facility.

This list will be updated periodically. For reasons of patient confidentiality, we cannot provide any more information on this list other than patient name, nationality and age.

Just had a short phone call with my friend working in the relief efforts. The strain/stress is really getting to everyone. There is no real effective leadership and a few people are trying to assert themselves as being in charge. Unfortunately, as it usually happens, these people are not qualified to lead things. A lot of local volunteers are starting to abandon efforts because of this. My friend is also getting quite angry at this foolishness. There is talk by a number of volunteers about abandoning the main staging areas and going off to work in some of the local villages. Not good.

Killjoy, thank you for the update on your friend.

"There is no real effective leadership and a few people are trying to assert themselves as being in charge. Unfortunately, as it usually happens, these people are not qualified to lead things. A lot of local volunteers are starting to abandon efforts because of this."

Just wait until the politicians arrive. It might get worse.

"...There is talk by a number of volunteers about abandoning the main staging areas and going off to work in some of the local villages. Not good."

It sure isn't good because all the volunteers should stick together for safety's sake. Separating off into smaller groups leaves them all vulnerable to people who may not need their help as much as they may need to make a political statement with hostages or worse.

Prayers up for your friend and all the volunteers who are trying to help. God protect them and keep them in comfort and good health.

Yes, I noticed that.

It's interesting that some lists are now claiming to have the official statistics. It will take a long time to sort it all out.

Check out the update on Killjoy's friend who is a volunteer worker in the recovery/relief effort. The circumstances are horrible and getting worse.

Quick update. My friend has grown even more disallusioned with the 'organized' relief efforts in Phang Nga. She has decided to see what else she can do to help. She spent the last day and a half with a small girl taking her around trying to find her parents. No luck.

I heard the most disgusting thing on the news just a little while ago. Some one got the names of folks for whom people were searching, and decided to play a malicious prank. This person has sent notices of death to people looking for loved ones and claiming to be a Govt. Minister, in Thailand, I think, I can't remember which country. I was just appalled! I told Sir SuziQ that any family who got one of those, especially if it isn't true, should have the right to have five minutes in a room alone with this miscreant to have the chance to beat the snot out of him. Then the next family gets their turn!

I think that would be justice, don't you?

Well, the girl found her parents... maybe. There is a bad smell coming from the building close to where they were. They are assuming they are dead inside it. One of the biggest problems now is a lack of construction equipment. They don't have cranes to move debris out of the way. They also dont have anything that can chop up masonry into smaller pieces. For now, they just have to leave things the way they are, bodies or not.

In some areas they are starting to use elephants for heavy lifting. She has not seen it personally but it has made the news. I assume yahoo probably has some pictures of it.

The Thai Prime Minister came down to visit yesterday and did a good job of pissing everyone off. Radio use by the relief crews was forbidden so everything had to stop while he was there.

Because of another thread on FR, I asked her about UN efforts. So far, she has not seen anything with a UN logo on it. Since they are really good at branding anything they are even remotely involved with, it is a good sign they are not there.

The various groups I mentioned before are all still there as well as quite a few foreign 'tourists' who have joined in the efforts. The 'tourists' helping out are from all over but she specifically mentioned some Americans that are there helping. :)

There are rumors going around of some US ships off the coast helping out with things now. She hasn't been paying much attention to the local news so doesn't know more about it.

Lots of great links! I'll be checking out the Hospital, too. I'd rather send another donation directly to a hospital org. Thanks!

Next time I talk to her I will try to get more information on the various local groups involved with the efforts.

I just checked and the Thai Red Cross has a link up for online donations at:

http://www.redcross.or.th/english/home/index.php4

If you, or anyone else, would like to donate directly, I can also arrange it. If your donation is sent to me, I can have her go ahead and give an equivalent amount to one of the local temples helping with relief efforts. (I will pay her back when I see her in February.) This way all of the donation would go to helping people instead of towards administrative costs. She has one of my digital cameras with her and I am sure she would be more than happy to send you a picture of the temple where the donation was given. If interested, contact me through mail.

Latest news...

Things continue to stabilize. A lot of the volunteers who were helping out have left because they need to go back to work. This is creating more work for everyone but is also a benefit since only the more hardcore people are left. A lot of the petty bickering has stopped since those asserting themselves have gone back to their day jobs.

There are still a lot of volunteers as well as foreigners helping out. Things are not as hectic now and they are starting to get more into logistics of how they are going to proceed with things.

There have been a lot of posts about animals not being killed. My friend said there have been a number of dead pigs, snakes and other animals. There have also been a lot of sharks, fish, and dolphins that washed up on shore. A group of people a few days ago were trying to rescue two dolphins that got washed up into a 'pond'.

A lack of manpower is a big problem. A number of the large resorts were barely damaged but the staff who worked there were killed. They don't have the people they need to clean up and re-open.

Finding bodies now is becoming a bigger problem. The stench is gone (they are past that point of decomposition?) so it is making locating them very difficult.

My friend will be back in Bangkok on thursday to take a break. Once she has Internet access again, I will link to some of the pictures she has taken.
