What can you put for a conclusion about the 2004 tsunami?

People went to look for their loved ones, searching through the debris and bodies with bare hands. Cranes and heavy equipment was brought to the area, to help clear the remains of peoples houses and vegetation. Information and organisations were put in place, as was a national support scheme. Organised tents were put up to help the homeless (nearly 30,000 in North West India). Emergency services were hard to organise though because of conflicts between armed rebel forces and their national governments. There was so much international aid needed that overall, £7 billion pounds was spent on helping the people who survived this devastating event. By Becky Easter
