    Though it is hard to shuffle around money for disasters like this, but it is more harder to make sure it reaches the intented targets! Corruption is the biggest killer in our country, lets fight and introduce 'under cover' operatives to nab all corrupted officials and strip of their juniforms, make news with names etc & send them home!! Do it now Presi!

    Follow what is happening in Pakistan. Reduce the size of the cabinet at least now and use the money save to rebuild the areas affected by the floods. We can not accept any more increased in food prices.
