Seoul City
to Send Money, Supplies to Haiti


The
Seoul Metropolitan Government will provide 100-thousand dollars
in monetary aid and emergency relief supplies to Haiti, which
lies in ruin following a magnitude seven earthquake that hit the
Caribbean nation on Wednesday, Korean time.
Seoul says it will supply food and daily necessities at the
earliest possible time, will participate in restoration
activities and will join in other global humanitarian efforts.
Seoul officials say that due to the considerable amount of time
it will take to purchase and deliver the supplies --- given that
transport is virtually paralyzed in Haiti --- the monetary aid
will be delivered first to the Red Cross Korean branch for
prompt use.

Dear members of the UCLG ASPAC,
The
Presidency and the all members of United Cities and Local
Governments Asia Pacific express their solidarity with the
people of Haiti following the catastrophe caused by massive 7.0
magnitude earthquake which has struck the Caribbean island of
Haiti on Tuesday 12 January 2010.
The Red
Cross estimates that up to three million people in Haiti have
been affected by Tuesday's earthquake and 45,000-50,000 people
have died in Haiti's devastating earthquake, as rescue teams
race against time to find survivors. The country's
infrastructure has been devastated, the scope of the calamity
enormous.
It is with
great sadness that they have witnessed the dramatic unfolding of
the consequences of this catastrophe.
This is a
moment of grieving but also one which calls for urgent action;
the UCLG ASPAC Presidency encourages all its members to support
the Haitian local authorities.
UCLG ASPAC
shall keep its members informed of the humanitarian aid
operations to which they can lend support as well as initiatives
directed at Haitian local authorities.
