        "content": "<p>Managing donations<\/p>\n<p>It may be worthwhile to examine the effects of the tsunami<br>\ntragedy that hit Aceh province on Dec. 26 on the government, or<br>\nrather on the administration under President Susilo Bambang<br>\nYudhoyono and Vice President Jusuf Kalla, and its political<br>\nramifications.<\/p>\n<p>In technical sense, they have nothing to worry about judging<br>\nfrom the support given by international agencies and foreign<br>\ngovernments as an expression of their deep sympathy for the<br>\npeople who have miserably suffered from the dramatic,<br>\nunprecedented, and gigantic tidal wave onslaught.<\/p>\n<p>The Secretary-General of the United Nations, Kofi Annan, may<br>\nbe correct in predicting that total rehabilitation of the<br>\ndevastated areas in Indonesia may take no less than ten years.<br>\nWill the present administration be able to cope with the task if<br>\nit has to do it alone?<\/p>\n<p>Massive financial means has been pledged by all sides so there<br>\nwill be no problem in this respect. But the tsunami aftermath<br>\nwill surely be felt for a long time to come and may influence<br>\nother government rehabilitation projects already pledged or drawn<br>\nup.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, it seems justified to ask the question whether all<br>\nthe funds and aid received from the public as well as from<br>\ninternational donations, will reach the people and projects most<br>\nneedy.<\/p>\n<p>Personally, I fear that the aid funds will be fully expended<br>\nwithin five years.<\/p>\n<p>The nation&apos;s new leaders must deal with the effects of the<br>\ntsunami and the rehabilitation efforts to stricken provinces,<br>\nmust care for orphans and separated families, and has to live up<br>\nto the pledges they have given to the nation. Failure or<br>\ndisappointment may cause a loss of confidence in their<br>\nleadership.<\/p>\n<p>GANDHI SUKARDI, Jakarta<\/p>",
