From a Pakistani Weblog:

"Often the numbers and info being bandied about it in these crisis situations is unreliable. A few friends have put together this effort (http://pakistanidps.wordpress.com/). Two requests.

Please promote the site as a resource for information about the IDP crisis.

Please add information as you get it. http://pakistanidps.wordpress.com/. Remember to include your source. Please email info to me if you'd like it posted as a separate post.

I spent the day at Hathian, distributing food and other items (soaps etc) in camps that are not yet on the radar. Anywhere between 4000 and 6000 people. No food, or medicine from govt. but everyone taken care of by the local community. Unreal--inspiring and depressing both.

Full details in a post on the website in a few minutes.... http://pakistanidps.wordpress.com/

peace, "
