It isn't only poor Asian countries that are at fault.
Their troops were sat idly in barracks while poor Americans drowned.
All nations need to start caring about poor people, and spending less on weapons, the UK included.
Why are there regular arms fairs for conventional weapons, instruments of torture, chemical and biological weapons taking place in Europe, regularly, every year, when poor people need money???
UK Government deals with companies such as British Aerospace, are shameful.
