While I’m inclined to agree that from
long list of supports, US contributed an ample sum, I was struck by
idea of publicizing almost all
listings of
support made by
various countries. Even at radio and TV reports this happens. Aren’t there good, “anonymous” Samaritans, anymore? What’s to be gained by constantly hollering
amount of contributions they are giving out to
devastated countries in
Asia Pacific regions? If there’s an ulterior motive to gain something out of giving out aids, then that’s not “giving” – that’s “taking advantage” of
situation.
Now, probably, that’s what Egeland is talking about. Stinginess, not because of how much
amount of aids is but “stinginess” because
true essence of “giving” is lost. Too much publicity and too much precondition may have been done that it appears not an aid but a business transaction.
I’m not saying that’s bad but I know it’s not a good practice to take advantage of a disaster which victimized almost 20,000 people in several third-world countries.
