Even though the mainstream news crews have left Haiti, the relief work continues on. One organization, Partners In Development, has seen a surge in the medical care required by the locals, as they are still without general care with almost no hospitals/medical facilities up and running. As PID’s relief work continues in Haiti, they look to a way to keep those interested informed, and keep those who may have otherwise forgotten the situation in the know. Please see the attached link for a short documentary that a few recent relief trip members put together to keep the world informed.Even though the mainstream news crews have left Haiti, the relief work continues on.... more

Port-au-Prince, Haiti (CNN) — Earthquake victims, writhing in pain and grasping at life, watched doctors and nurses walk away from a field hospital Friday night after a Belgian medical team evacuated the area, saying it was concerned about security.
The decision left CNN Chief Medical Correspondent Sanjay Gupta as the only doctor at the hospital to get the patients through the night.

"BEIJING — A human rights advocate who tried to help grieving parents push for an official investigation into a school that collapsed during May’s earthquake in Sichuan Province has been charged with illegal possession of state secrets, a legal step Chinese officials take when they intend to punish a dissident.
The advocate, Huang Qi, runs an informal organization called the Tianwang Human Rights Center in Chengdu, the capital of Sichuan, in southwest China.
Mr. Huang’s wife, Zeng Li, said she was told Monday morning of the charge against her husband and that a closed-door trial would be held on Tuesday. She later said that a judge called her at 6 p.m. to say the trial had been postponed indefinitely, possibly because several foreign news organizations had run articles about the charge on their Web sites. "
There's more on the actual article about the specifics. Typically, it has been predicted that the economic boom in China will eventually lead to a surge of attention to human rights in the region. As we see the suppression of civil liberties push-pull with the country's reaction to international pressure, what do people see as the outcome?
where is this all going?"BEIJING — A human rights advocate who tried to help grieving parents push... more

CHENGDU, China — In response to inquiries from grieving relatives, local officials announced Monday that parents whose only child was killed or grievously injured in the May 12 earthquake would be exempt from the country’s one-child policy. The Chengdu Population and Family Planning Committee said those families can obtain a certificate to have another child.
The anguish of parents and grandparents has been compounded by the one-child policy, which was introduced in 1979 to control population growth. Provincial officials, especially those in rural areas or in regions with large minority populations, are sometimes given latitude in the application of the regulations. In some places, for example, families are permitted to have more than one child if the first is a girl.
"Our grief is incomparable," said Li Ping, 39, eyes rimmed red, as he and his wife slowly, carefully pulled a pair of pink pajamas over the bruised, naked body of their 8-year-old daughter, Ke. "We got married late, and had a child late. She is our only child."
