COMMENTARY     

Thomas
31st December 2004 		The disaster from sunday's tsunami in the Indian Ocean has rippled far beyond Asia, making it truly a tragedy felt across the globe. The disaster's reach is an unsettling reminder that globalisation has brought the world closer together in unexpected ways so that people now share the pain as well as profit from far-flung places. Even for people who have never left home, otherwise abstract calamities in distant lands now frequently have a familiar face.
OE Nerstad
13th March 2005 		As of March 2005, the confirmed number of Norwegians who died in the tsunami is over 50, not 16 as stated on this site.
Abigail medina
17th March 2005 		I need to know about how many people died from the tsunami -- the total from the time it hit the first coasts to the last.
