a tsunami of corruption and vultures
One of the worst natural disasters of our times. Officially in the list of top 10 worst natural disasters in the past 400 years.
The tsunami that hit the shores of South-East Asia has unleashed another phenomenon - that of unthinkable corruption. Corruption that comes in the face of and at the expense of such a major tragedy.
A lot of funds are being collected and mobilized to aid the surviving victims of the disaster. However most of these funds will not reach the victims. They will be embezzled by a whole chain of despicable assholes - assholes of the worst kind. In the end, only a very small fraction will end up available for aid and releif work, and an even smaller fraction will result in actual benefit to the victims.
Most of the so-called funds in India do not keep any accounts of how much has been collected. On request, this information is kept secret, and no records are maintained. Why leave a trail?
I usually can't stant corruption. But this is so much more. All the assholes involved in profiteering from this disaster will get their comeuppance - and it will not be pretty. Of that I am confident.
