Still much work to do

A second AMURT team has left Medan for Banda-Aceh last night. They have safely arrived and have immediately started looking for the Acehnese authorities.

They addressed a minister of the government and asked whether medical assistance was required at a military hospital located in Banda-Aceh (the only hospital housed in tents).

The question was asked because a group of 10 volunteer doctors and nurses have offered to join AMURT.

The minister told them that there was still a great need for medical personal and that they could even get a portion of the hospital for their operation.

There are still dead bodies to remove (perhaps in Melabuh). Help is still required to distribute food, clean some hospital, and other inportant facilities, etc.
