But Norway has given $6.69 per citizen privately in tsunami relief (in addition to government aid), and the USA has given $0.41 per citizen privately.

I don't know where you are getting your numbers, but they're wrong.

There are 293,027,571 (July 2004 est.) Americans, and President Bush has pledged at least $350 million, that's about 3 times your number right there.

Oops... I breezed right over the word privately.

I would say the list given in your article is by no means a complete list of donations.
