komitmen bantuan itu bisa saja tinggal janji kosong, ingat nggak korban gempa di iran 2 tahun lalu, negara donor berkomitmen membantu iran melalui pbb sebesar USD 1.5 milyar tapi yg terrealisasinya hanya USD 17.5 jt saja, Koffi Annan kecewa sekali, sampai dia mewanti-wanti agar komitmen bantuan negara untuk korban Tsunami asia sekarang harus-lah jujur jangan pepesan kosong saja, Negara muslim kawasan timteng lebih nyata dalam membantu Iran, karena bantuan tersebut langsung ke pemerintah dan dapat dicairkan. paling-paling cerita bantuan barat akan berakhir seperti ini, mereka akan tawarkan dalam bentuk pinjaman, mungkin pinjaman jangka panjang, aburizal mintanya pinjaman tanpa bunga, lantas negara donor akan lihat-lihat dulu, kalau masyarakat lokal sendiri bisa bantu mereka akan mundur apalagi kalau tahu Arabsaudi cs telah bantu..mereka bilang bantuankan sudah cukup, yg datang mungkin hanya yayasan swasta mendompleng yayasan dalam negeri atau pemerintah RI untuk bantuan kemanusian yg tak jelas, bisa untuk agitasi HAM, kepercayaan dan budaya. Manusia Indonesia kebanyakan hanya melihat kulitnya saja, militer USA membagi air di CNN, tentara australia buat sumur air dll, sementara sukarelawan dalam negeri atau pendodonor Muslim lainnya memang tak pantas diekspose. Inilah dunia informasi, siapa yg punya jaringan informasi dialah yg kayaknya paling dari yg terpaling. tahukah anda bahwa komitmen bantuan yg dijanjikan negara-negara tsb, di kas negara belum pernah ada yg masuk?? masih $0!!
