Dear Sir/Madam,

The international media has not given proper coverage to the relief efforts carried out by India for people affected by Tsunami disaster.  I am attaching with this e-mail a report dated 4 January 2005 on various efforts made by the Armed Forces.

You may see from the attachment that India is not only helping our own nationals but also of Indonesia, Sri Lanka and Maldives.

The National Disaster Management, Ministry of Home Affairs, is coordinating all the relief efforts.  For latest information, you may like to visit the website: http://www.ndmindia.nic.in .

Please pass on this to your Indian and Australian friends.

Yours faithfully,

A. Manickam
Acting High Commissioner
