What am I caring and thinking about……

My major is finance, it’s a subject full of investment and evaluation  or, in a word, money tangible or intangible. And I am a girl who loves helping others, and service to me is a world filled with love and understanding.

In my macro economy class, my teacher drew a figure on the blackboard and explained that developing countries will finally conquer all their difficulties and ahead towards a bright future. Since I forgot is it the unemployment rate the reference standard, I will stop talking on that theory.=) But the question here comes to me is that why the poor become even poorer while the rich stay to be even richer?

These days, Indonesia is suffering a ever severest natrual disaster which is combination of three horrible natrual evil tsunami, earthquake and volcano eruption. No wonder that if it was not the disasters, the people living there would enjoy the sunshine beaches and peaceful lives there, and with the rich resources they are able to earn a living by the boosting development of the local tourism. However everything changed after one disaster after another.

Earthquake

Tsunami

” Actually I went in to help the family of a neighbor who were trapped. I was 10 metres away from the family but couldn’t get any closer because the ash was very hot, so we couldn’t handle it.”

——volcano eruption

President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono has now toured that area, suggesting to survivors that they may not be able to rebuild where they were.
“It will need a reevaluation of housing that is located in areas prone toearthquakes, tsunamis, and landslides. These kinds of areas are not suitable for housing.”

——CRI News

Nobody can turn a blind eye on the vicious circle. ” A local official said a warning system installed after a deadly ocean wave in 2004 had broken from a lack of maintenance.”from the news we can see a little hole can damage a whole ship even the same mistakes again. I am not an expert on the internatinal affairs and i do not know why the accident happen without preparation maybe the government is busying with the GDP. I am not sure.

I pray for the victims and the country.
