I would be happy to tell you Why there is still no foreign aid in: 1）No need. The road has not been cleared through, we have sent enough amount of persons to manage this disaster, if we need medical care afterwards we would be happy of outside aid. Believe in PLA, OK? We have undergone the 1998 flood and the recent snorm disaster, we know how to act and how to act effiently. About their helicopters, do you understand that it is extremely hard for a helicopter to locate itself in such a kind of environment? The sea wind is very directional, yet it is not the case in the mountain areas, which changes at any time. The helicopter is not so omnipotent as depicted in hollywood film. If they send the superman, that is the mostly welcome;) 2）Poor tools? We are using M-8 military helicopters and airborne landing techniques, with Wain's global system(GPS of China) to communicate with those conduct rescue. You called this poor tools? China military rescue has been instant and efficient. If you have no trust on the government, DO believe in the PLA. They are the most beautiful persons across this country. Salute them.

thx for replying but what I mean is that the people there need some professional tools like life detective equipments, the army is not trained for earthquake rescue.
I think some experienced SAR team would help a lot. That's why the gov is calling other parts of the country to send professional quake rescue teams.
That's why I say that they should let foreign teams in. Life is more important than ideology

Your posts frighten me. You seem so “pro government line”. There are reports of journalists being arrested for what? Posting pictures??? If this is the case, our friends in China being arrested, that would be worse for China than the disaster of murdering Tibetan priests. I hope this is not the case. We have “Bush bots” here meaning they are against anyone saying anything against the President but they are pathetic and useless people because they have no power. I hope you are one of those pathetic and useless people spouting the party line but I’m afraid you aren’t. The propaganda you spew has the stench of government protection. We have made many friends here and we would miss them if they were gone. I hope China finally made the decision that’s it’s ok to complain about the government. We do here all the time and it often appears we make no difference but at least we have the right to speak!!
