Help Families Affected by Typhoon Bopha in the Philippines


As you already know together, over 5.4 million people have been affected since Typhoon Bopha hit the Philippines on December 4.  Nearly 64,000 houses have been damaged, and 370,000 people have been forced to leave their houses. Around 650 people have been confirmed dead, and 780 are still missing.

On Tuesday (12/11) the World Food Council (the United Nations World Food Programme / WFP) has applied for humanitarian aid amounting to 21.6 million U.S. dollars to provide life-saving food and nutrition assistance, and logistical support for people who have been most affected by Typhoon Bopha in the worst-hit areas of  Compostela Valley, Davao Oriental, the CARAGA region, and Lanao del Sur. 

The amount is intended to provide food aid and will be held until May 2013 as a complement to early recovery and relief operations given the Philippine government. WFP assistance will include the provision of a special nutritious food for 80,000 children in the areas worst hit by the typhoon and 60,000 pregnant women and nursing mothers.


As of Monday 10th December, WFP had already delivered rice and high-energy biscuits for 142,500 people and Ready-to-Use supplementary foods for 26,000 children. Thirty-eight trucks have also been deployed to help local government units deliver relief goods. 
Help them . .

Perginya si Tukang Mie Ayam. (RIP)

Pagi ini baru aja dapet kabar kalo tukang mie ayam langganan gw di kantor yg lama Graha Piesta (daerah warung buncit raya) meninggal tadi subuh. Penyebabnya apa? Cuma karena dia ga sengaja mergokin maling yg mau bobol warung rokok di samping gerobak mie ayamnya, trus si maling yg panik lgsg ngebacok si abang setelah (mungkin) ada perlawanan dr abang mie ayam.
Innalillahii. Umur emang ga ada yg tau, tapi kenapa sesepele itu masalahnya sampe si maling lgsg ngebacok?
Tukang Mie Ayam itu padahal fenomenal bgt, mie ayam dia jd favorit orang2 kantor sekitar. Udah buka pagi2 jam 7an. Banyak orang yg sarapan mie ayam dia. (Mie Ayam buat jadi sarapan? itu mgkn karena saking enaknya :(( hiks ) Trus juga pas jam makan siang, sampe ada yg pesen dobel. Itu pun ga lama setelah jam makan siang pasti langsung tutup karena udh abis. Pasti. Selalu begitu.
Gw, yg sebelumnya ga suka sm mie ayam, bisa menjadi salah satu langganan dia. Mie Ayamnya terkenal enak. Emang beneran enak sampe makan 2 porsi sehari jg ga heran.
Gw udh setaun lebih pindah dr kantor itu dan ga pernah makan mie ayam itu lagi, tetep ngerasa kehilangan sama tukang mie ayam itu.
Miris. Karena harusnya mie ayam dia bisa berkembang dari cuma sekedar gerobak pinggir jalan, ke sebuah toko dengan brand atau paling ga buka cabang baru yg dikelola istrinya.
Well, rejeki, jodoh, maut emang ga ada yg tau. Itu namanya takdir.
Mungkin post ini ga akan pernah dibaca sama istri/keluarga si almarhum, tapi post ini cuma sebagian kecil dari penghargaan2/doa2 lain yg diberikan oleh pelanggan2nya.
Alfatihah.
