I wanted to take the opportunity to apprise you of the recent torrential rains that have caused tremendous damage in Pakistan’s southern provinces of Sindh and Balochistan. According to the NDMA (National Disaster Management Authority of Pakistan) over a million people have been displaced. In Badin district (Sindh province) alone the count is estimated at over 200,000 people affected as a result of 100 villages that have been swept away due to flooding from a 200 foot wide gap in the salinity drain there.Wednesday, August 24, 2011
