| The UN organization gave $8mil. and yet Jet Li and his foundation gave $4+mil. Surely the UN could be a bit more generous. |

| "The UN organization gave $8mil. and yet Jet Li and his foundation gave $4+mil. Surely the UN could be a bit more generous." Gary, Jet Li is a Chinese and those who contribute their money to the One Foundation mostly are Chinese too. UN just gave 8 million dollars as humanitarian aid. This is the difference. How about USA? They just gave 500,000 dollars. Saudi Arabia has donated 50 million dollars and 10 million relief materials. Who is generous? It is reported that the Red Cross in US has donated 10 million dollars and other enterprises, 12 million dollars. It seems that those NGOs in US are more generous than their government. |
