me and news!!!

I often watch the news on television with my family and I noticed that every day there are new natural disasters, accidents, tragedies, murders, death. But also good news as births, weddings, etc. I’ll tell you some of these facts more or less in details. Over a period of two weeks we had a natural disaster in the world and one big accident in Belgium.

This 12 January there was an earthquake in Haiti. It had a magnitude between 7.0 and 7.3 on the Richter scale. Its epicentre was near the town of Léogãne, approximately 25 km west of Haiti’s capital, Port-au-Prince.
Unfortunately we have 230 000 dead and 300 000 injured and 1,2 million of homeless.
Several countries and many celebrities have made many donations to help the Haitian population. They are also hundreds of thousands of private donations.
But today, the rainy season started in Haiti. The humanitarian aid had provided cover for protection from severe weather such unhappily they now longer enough. New tents are toward Haiti. But has they have still not arrived; the survivors have built slums with anything they can find.

This 27 January there was a explosion in Liège street Leopold. This explosion was caused by gas. It has devasted several buildings and one building collapsed.
Unfortunately there were forty dead, twenty injured including two seriously and a lot of homeless. But they were supported by the city of Liège wich has a provision of buildings for housing.

These two big events touché me because I’m a human and the sinister of Haiti is really sad and don’t think a little bit about that is inhuman. We can not be impassive to these poor people have nothing. Charities must still help them and do not let them down as they would soon do so.
The Liège’s explosion touches me because in two years I’ll be in a kot there. And my brother was in Liège during the explosion thus I was not very quiet.
