Among the aid offered to help relieve the sufferings of tsunami disaster victims in Aceh is volunteer services for the evacuation and medical treatment of survivors as well as the clearing of rubble.

However, the goodwill and noble intentions, if carried out impulsively and hastily, without considering various emergency factors amid Aceh's devastation, may even increase the burden of government and military personnel now undertaking post-tsunami relief work.

The fact is that some volunteers are complaining that they do not receive attention or facilities in Aceh. Others even seek military protection in case of disturbances caused by the Free Aceh Movement separatists. Isn't this ridiculous and unreasonable?
