After a magnitude 7 earthquake that hit Haiti's capital Port-au-Prince and other regions, the world started to move. But not so quickly.

Hundreds of millions of USD came in the media and the virtual world, aid and rescue teams organized around the world, but the help still not reached every affected areas.

lack of water, food, medicines, electricity and the important one: help.

Ban Ki-moon,Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, Gordon Brown made announcements about help, but news channels report about bottlenecks collapsed bridges - this is the excuse why the aid and help so slow. No one has planes or helicopters or..??

I can't accept this. I cannot believe, that  western/wealthy countries haven't got the equipment what's needed there.

My last info: more than 70 000 buries in mass graves, more than 150 000 died and more than 300 000 still waiting for medical supply. They live as refugees in their own country/city.

And there's only virtual help, naturaly there's exceptions.

This is my point of view. paralyzed world when a country in need..
