Pray for the people suffering from the earthquake in Haiti
On Jan. 12th, a tremendous disaster broke down the capital of Haiti. The earthquake in Port-au-Prince was regarded as the worst disaster in Haiti in more than 200 years. Nearly 5,000 people were threatening to death. When I heard the new, I was deeply shocked by the unbelievable destruction the earthquake brought out. I really concern how the rescue is going on in Haiti. Today, I read an article called Former Presidents to Lead Relief Fund from New York Times on line and know more about the current situation in Haiti. The article says that the rescuers are trying their best to find more survivors and many governments have sending out the first aid and food to Haiti. However, the current situation is not optimistic because the rescue can only help some of people and most people are struggling for their lives, which leads to chaos in security. Some foreigners in Haiti are running away because they worry that they will be suffered from the chaos. The American government promises to bring more help to Haiti and the former presidents in U.S. make their voice heard that they are leading relief fund. After reading the article, I am very sad about the current situation in Haiti. Although many governments have given their hand to this unlucky country, it is not enough at all. People in Haiti needs more help. I saw a picture which shows that people are struggling for the water. I can see their worried and painful faces. I know that Haiti is a poor country. It’s not easy for them to rescue themselves and relief from this disaster. They want to be alive and the desperation has spread out and leads to chaos. I really appreciate the promise the American government has given. However, I hope that the aids can be carried out as fast as possible. Moreover, although I can understand the feeling of some foreigners, I still think that running away is an irresponsible behavior. Everyone in the world has the duty to help people. I really looking forward that more governments can do their favor to this poor country. Let’s pray for people suffering from this big disaster.

ReplyDeleteI agree with you. We really need to pray for people who suffer from those kinds of natural disasters. I’m really impressed and moved that many countries are willing to give a hand to Haitians. However, nowadays, we can only find out that all human-beings actually belong to one big family despite the races, religions and politics from those disasters. In fact, we should try harder on the world peace so that all of us can stand together to fight for our future and make the world a better place for the entire human race.
