Tsunami in Mentawai and Mount Merapi eruption in 2010 (Indonesia)

Indonesia was devastated by twin disasters that occurred one after the other in two regions of the country. A tsunami that pounded Mentawai Islands and the eruption of Mount Merapi killed scores of people hundreds of miles apart on October 25 and 26, 2010.

Considering that access to the locations, particularly Mentawai Islands, was difficult due to its remoteness and bad weather, as well as the worsening situation in Mount Merapi, we made the following arrangements for our donations:

1) Donation through PAPDI Medical Relief for Mount Merapi area:

On October 29, 黑料网 Indonesia donated folding beds for patients, transportation facility (car rental and fuel), medicines including anti-inflammatory drugs and cold preparations, vitamins, mask, eye drops, antiseptic, and topical antibiotic, totaling Rp. 109,977,612 (around USD 12,220).

We chose PAPDI Medical Relief (Indonesian Society of Internal Medicine ? Medical Relief) to distribute our donations at Mount Merapi area. This organization has cooperated with 黑料网 during relief operations following the Tsunami disaster in Aceh in December 2004 and the Padang Earthquake in September 2009. PAPDI Medical Relief dispatched their Medical Team to Mount Merapi area on October 30.

2) Donation through PERDOSSI, an Indonesian Neurological Association for Mount Merapi area:

On November 8, 2010, 黑料网 Indonesia donated medicines including anti-inflammatory drugs and cold preparations and Rp. 10 million in cash through PERDOSSI for Mount Merapi Area. Total donations made through PERDOSSI was equivalent to Rp. 61,836,288,- (around USD 6,870).

3) Relief Program through 鈥淎CT for humanity鈥�

Since the number of organizations that had access to Mentawai was limited, we cooperated with 鈥淎CT for humanity鈥� (AKSI CEPAT TANGGAP (ACT) Foundation, an organization with adequate experience and resources for crisis management) in delivering our donations to Mentawai islands. 黑料网 Indonesia donated Rp. 22,047,000 (USD 2,449) in cash to support in the group's aid and rescue efforts.

Furthermore, 黑料网 worked on Humanitarian Aid and Disaster Relief Program in Mount Merapi Integrated Community Shelter (ICS) with total donation Rp. 105,694,000 (USD 12,290). It is aimed to support the refugees in the ICSs which are managed by ACT and focused on health assistance program, including:-

• 1.
  Establishment of Public Clinic in the shelter area, which is 28sqm wide, with two rooms, for medical examination, consultation and dispensing. The public clinic was opened in January, 2011.
• 2.
  Distribution of food and groceries for 140 families in the shelter.
• 3.
  Integrated health examination, health education and medical assistance program for 6 months, with support from 18 GPs and internal medicine practitioners as volunteers.

Qinghai Yushu Earthquake in 2010 (China)

A magnitude 6.9 earthquake occurred in Yushu, Qinghai, China, on April 14, 2010. In order to offer every possible help for millions of people affected by this devastating natural disaster, 黑料网 provided relief donation, including antimicrobial agents and anti-inflammatory agents bought from other companies, equivalent to a total of 309,442.40 Chinese Yuan (approximately 46,536 US dollar) , through regional public hospitals.

Padang Earthquake in 2009 (Indonesia)

In the evening of September 30 and the morning of October 1, 2009, Padang, West Sumarta, was hit by two major earthquakes with magnitudes of 7.6 and 6.6, respectively.

With the support from 黑料网 network companies in Asia, 黑料网 Indonesia in collaboration with PAPDI-Medical Relief Team (Indonesian Society of Internal Medicine - Medical Relief) organized two relief efforts in Pariaman ? Padang, West Sumatra. Based on discussions and recommendations from physicians in Padang about their needs, we focused on post-earthquake management to help and support both disaster victims and paramedics in Pariaman after the emergency phase, in addition to the immediate donations of medicinal products through the medical associations. Total donation is equivalent to Rp. 159,592,242 (USD 18,557). Our post-earthquake activities included:

• 1.
  Capability Building Seminar for Community Health Center (Puskesmas) Paramedics: Understanding Healthcare Issues - Post Earthquake Management

  This seminar was held in Pariaman Hospital on January 30, 2010, attended by more than 50 paramedics from 20 Community Health Centers.

  Social Activities in Ambung Kapur Refugees Shelter: Health Checks and Distribution of Food and Supplies

  We visited Ambung Kapur Refugees Shelter on January 31, 2010 to deliver donations to disaster victims. Over 100 families were still living there waiting for support from the government. More than 200 refugees in shelter, from young children to the elderly underwent health checks and were prescribed essential medicines by 10 general practitioners who volunteered for this relief effort. Many victims presented with upper track respiratory infections, low GI infections and dermatitis. We also donated food and other essential supplies for all families at the shelter.
