Re: [Biofuel] tsunami relief, construction efforts
The question was where the man could adress himself so he could make use of his talent with his hands, not his wallet :-) The best bet financially is to find someone(s) and send it direct, otherwise you end up paying for the bureaucracy's expenses.Still, something is better than nothing, and nothing is pretty much where they are at right now.

Re: [Biofuel] tsunami relief, construction efforts
My father is in the construction trade and he asked me last night who he might ask if his services would be useful in rebuilding things in tsunami devastated areas, I don't really have those kinds of contacts but I imagine someone on this list might. does anyone know who he would contact to offer to go over there and help rebuild? John Guttridge I think you will find that the countries don't need all that much "outside" help when it comes to reconstruction. They have much manpower, even taking into account the massive loss of life, and then paying these people to build is a good way of getting money to the local economies. A lot of these people where fishermen, and have subsequently lost their boats hence are not capable of earning an income "the old way". Something that may be worth passing onto your father though is that these people will need tools. When East Timor was destroyed by Indonesia in 1998/1999/2000, if memory serves me correctly, Australia sent up some tradesmen to teach the locals how to "swing a hammer" but also ran huge "tool drives" where people, back in Australia, where encouraged to clean out the old back shed and send their rusting tools to local collection points. The tools where then cleaned up and sent to East Timor so that the locals had something to work with. I personally think this is a better way of doing things rather than sending a mob of Western construction people there to actually do the rebuilding.

Re: [Biofuel] tsunami relief, construction efforts
As a volunteer for the local ARC chapter I'm unaware of any RC programs that plan to use the skills mentioned. I would suggest first contacting the peace corps http://www.peacecorps.gov/ . Many missionary groups may put his skills to use. In the event one has no particular faith they may contact the local ministerial alliance or Salvation Army for more information.
