Relief news update from Turkey - 5 Aug 2009
Supreme Master Ching Hai International Association relief news update from Turkey.
Days of torrential rainfall overflowed rivers and caused a landslide in the northern provinces of Ordu, Artvin, Bolu and Bartın. Seven lives were lost and 11 others injured, with hundreds of buildings damaged. On July 17, Supreme Master Ching Hai donated US$20,000 for relief while sending her heartfelt sorrow and prayers.
This amount could obtain approximately US$78,000 in emergency supplies if purchased in the United States, based on the cost of living in Turkey.

Our relief team thus traveled to the town of Bulancak and Giresun, the capital city of Giresun province, where they purchased basic food necessities, as well as treats for the children.
Assisted by local officials, they delivered food packages to 200 households and gave 90 people envelopes containing cash assistance. They also distributed SOS flyers to inform people of the tolls vegan solution for global warming.
Later, Egemen, editor of a local Giresun newspaper as well as member of an animal protection association offered to publish an article about Supreme Master Ching Hai and our Association’s relief efforts.
On the way out of Giresun, our Association’s relief team met a gentleman named Fahrettin from a village in Giresun province, who said that 25 homes had been damaged there.
They give him the rest of Master’s donation to aid his fellow villagers, along with SOS flyers.
Fahrettin conveyed his gratitude and said he would adopt a vegetarian diet.Many thanks, Bulancak and Giresun officials and editor Egemen for your kind assistance and congratulations Mr. Fahrettin for your compassionate choice of the veg lifestyle.
We are also thankful to Supreme Master Ching Hai for bringing comfort to those in need and to our Association’s relief team for their endeavors. With the grace of the Providence, may the Turkish people swiftly recover the normalcy of their daily lives as humanity’s increased stewardship helps to restore Earth’s stability.

Relief news update from India - 12 Aug 2009
Supreme Master Ching Hai International Association relief news update from India.
Heavy monsoon rains that began early July triggered a flood in the Barpeta District of Assam, India, causing people and animals to perish, with over half a million villagers affected as many lost their bamboo homes.
Supreme Master Ching Hai donated US$20,000 in aid for the urgently in need on July 15, conveying her love and prayers.
This could purchase US$336,000 in relief items if bought in the United States, based on the cost of living in India.
Covering their own expenses, our Association’s relief team from Formosa (Taiwan) traveled to four disaster-struck villages. These were located on a small, remote island inaccessible to either government or non-governmental organizations even after the flood subsided. With the help of the organization Rotary International, our relief team was able to distribute emergency food and clothing.
Anu P. – Rotary Club of Guwahati, Assam, India (M): This time, in the month of July, there were floods in Assam, and many parts of Assam were affected.
We have given relief to about 5,000 families.Everything has happened with the blessings of Supreme Master
Ching Hai. Thank you for taking care of our people in Assam, in India from a very far off place. Thank you.
VOICE: Our thanks, Rotary International for your assistance in relieving the distressed in India. We join in gratefulness to Supreme Master Ching Hai for her caring aid, and appreciate the dedicated work of our Association's relief team.
May the villagers return quickly to their normal lives, as we pray for humanity’s expanding benevolence to help
such disasters subside.

Relief news update from Formosa (Taiwan) - 15 Aug 2009
Supreme Master Ching Hai International Association relief news update from Formosa (Taiwan).
Typhoon Morakot struck Formosa on August 7 and 8, triggering severe floods and landslides.
At least 108 lives have been lost, over 10,000 evacuated, and hundreds remain unaccounted for as entire villages were destroyed, mostly in the worst hit Kaohsiung County.
Many roads and bridges were swept away, stranding thousands in places like remote mountain villages, which have become only accessible by air.
The 34,000 Formosan (Taiwanese) troops originally deployed for rescue operations have been joined by 4,000 more. Their efforts have thus far resulted in the airlifting of 14,000 residents to safety, including 1,000
from three villages that had been completely buried by landslides.
Foreign aid requested by President Ma Ying-jeou has also begun to arrive, including donations from China, Japan, Singapore, and the United States.
Upon hearing of this tragedy, Supreme Master Ching Hai immediately donated an initial US$30,000 and stated that more funds are available as needed for our Formosan Association members to go help, while sending her condolences and love.
A relief team was quickly formed and set out for the most affected areas, with members contributing their own funds for travel.
One group in our Association’s relief team set up a veg food supply station where 4,000 veg lunch meals and 6,000 veg dinners were cooked for the victims, soldiers, and relief workers on the first day. When the Puzi River later burst its banks and the Chiayi County Social Affairs Department appealed to our Association for help, relief team members prepared thousands of food supply packages along with informative SOS flyers about the tolls of global warming.
Another team has been working to reach isolated areas and is currently bringing wounded victims out of afflicted mountain regions using a 4-wheel drive vehicle.
Mr. Tong Shen Lee, Captain of the 3rd team of Fire Bureau, Dong Gang Township, Pingtung County (M): Our Fire Bureau must saved many patients and trapped people in the disaster area. But we need the non-governmental relief organizations like you to help. And thank you very much.
VOICE: Our thankfulness, Formosan officials and rescue workers for your tireless efforts in saving countless lives.
We are also truly grateful for Supreme Master Ching Hai’s comfort and security to the most affected.
Our prayers for the smooth recovery of the distressed villagers’ productive daily lives and that our Earth
may soon stabilize through our greater consideration and care.

Relief news update from Japan - 16 Aug 2009
Supreme Master Ching Hai International Association relief news update from Japan.
On July 21, record torrential rains struck Japan and led to widespread landslides that caused the loss of 18 lives and left lasting damage to thousands of houses in Yamaguchi and Tottori prefectures.
Then, on August 9 and 11, two earthquakes measuring 7.2 and 6.5 on the Richter scale shook Japan, with resultant landslides that cost at least 13 lives.
Almost simultaneously, Typhoon Etau on August 10 brought floods that caused 2,200 people to evacuate and at least 12 to perish.
Conveying her condolences and prayers, Supreme Master Ching Hai immediately requested that our local Association members go comfort the victims, and later reimbursed the relief expenses.
Supreme Master Ching Hai frequently asks for updates on such humanitarian situations. With Master’s permission, we would like to share this latest report from Japan.
August 12, 2009
Most Merciful Master,
Re: rainfall in Japan On July 23, Association members from Osaka and other cities visited the most severely affected area of Ono District in Hofu-shi Yamaguchi prefecture and distributed needed water, towels, foods and Master’s SOS flyers to the shelter victims.
The many elders living in this remote mountainous area were grateful and happy upon receiving Master’s timely aid. Fortunately, the government took good care of the people so that the loss of the property has been minimized to an extent.
Re: earthquakes With Master’s immediate instruction, our Association members from Gunma investigated the situation.
With God’s grace, the damage has been greatly repaired. Makinohara city in Shizuoka prefecture was in need of bottled water, sand bags, and plastic sheets, so we quickly delivered those items with Master’s SOS flyers.
We don’t know how to express our deep gratitude for Master’s love, grace, and deep concern for the people of Japan.
Association members from Gunma and Osaka, Japan
VOICE: We thank Supreme Master Ching Hai for allowing us to share this news with our concerned viewers and also thank our Association’s Foreign Group for this report.
Our appreciation, Japan, for so efficiently seeing to the needs of your citizens. We are grateful also for Supreme Master Ching Hai’s loving and unconditional aid to those most in need, and for our Association members’ dedicated, prompt efforts. Our prayers for the comfort of the affected persons and
the speedy restoration of their communities.
May such unsettling events lessen as humanity more gently regards our delicate ecosphere.
