replies: text: I agree it should be primarily listed in the local currency, but I've added a rough conversion to help those of us who can't think in units of 100 million! (And a link to crore for those who want to learn) --Shannonr 07:48, 10 August 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Fighting over food 

message: Are the people of the flooded regions able to use their government to turn around the donations and buy food and supplies from the United States, Canada, England, China, Australia..?
 
:Generally, as far as India is concerned, it seems to have the money but it does not use it to help the disaster affected people. Things have been improving lately, but still. And to the immediate question, aid does not help immediately...it helps if at all only during reconstruction, I very much doubt if the aid is of much help. 74.196.213.12 04:50, 14 August 2007 (UTC)

message: The more I look at this article, the more I realise that it can be infinitely long - flooding was going on in SAsia before July 29, and there will be more floods after August 15th, as it's the monsoon season. In order that this article not become infinitely expandable, I'm going to put a duration of July 29-August 15 in, and refer readers to previous articles (e.g. Cyclone Yemyin, which struck Pakistan in July) or forthcoming articles (of which there will be one, no doubt). Should demand require it, this article can be easily reactivated as a current event: if demand does not, then no harm done. Regards, Anameofmyveryown 08:40, 19 August 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Actually, I'm going to have to push it back to July 3rd, when flood FL-2007-000096-IND hit (DFO number 115). Any further back, and it'll risk overlapping with Cyclone Yemyin floods. Apols, Anameofmyveryown 09:20, 19 August 2007 (UTC)
