PHILIPPINES SEARCH AND RESCUE TEAMS TO JAPAN?

LAST NIGHT I WAS NOT ABLE TO SLEEP, MY MIND WAS SO PRE-OCCUPIED WITH SO MANY THINGS. I WAS STILL SHOCKED WITH WHAT HAPPENED TO JAPAN WHEN AN 8.9 MAGNITUDE QUAKE ROCKS JAPAN FOLLOWED BY A DEVASTATING TSUNAMI THAT WIPES OUT LIVES AND PROPERTIES IN JUST A MATTER OF MINUTES. IN MOMENTS LIKE THIS, JAPAN NEEDED OUR PRAYERS AND ALL KINDS OF HELP AS PART OF THE GLOBAL COMMUNITIES. I WAS SO HAPPY WHEN I READ FROM THE NEWS THAT MY OWN GOVERNMENT, THE PHILIPPINES WAS SENDING SEARCH AND RESCUE TEAMS INCLUDING MEDICAL AND SURGICAL EXPERTS TO JAPAN. THE INTENTIONS WAS GREAT BUT THE REALIZATION WAS FAR FROM THE REALITY AND CHANCES ARE THE PHILIPPINE GOVERNMENT WILL NOT BE ABLE TO SEND SEARCH AND RESCUE TEAMS TO JAPAN OR IT IS TOO LATE SENDING OUR MEDICAL AND SURGICAL EXPERTS. GROUNDS THEY ARE NOT READY AND PREPARED YET. BECAUSE ONLY NOW THEY ARE ORGANIZING AND STARTING TO MOBILIZE THE COMPOSITION OF THE TEAMS AND AFTERWHICH, THEY WILL PROPOSE IT TO THE GOVERNMENT. I REALLY FEEL SAD FOR MY GO...
