For those who survived the initial quakes and tsunami, a third humanitarian disaster is unfolding, as starvation, disease and homelessness begin to take their toll. There is a severe shortage of food, water, medicine and clothing in Palu, where many people have lost everything they own and an estimated 10,000 have been left homeless. Many children have been separated from their families, whilst the discovery, identification, and burial of victims still trapped in the rubble are moving slowly due to difficulties associated with reaching them.
Panorama Destination and Asia World Indonesia have set up this fundraising account to raise money to help the victims of the Sulawesi earthquakes and tsunami.
