<http://www.cafebabel.com/en/dossier.asp?id=145>Tsunami: what the sea left
behind...
The wave of media coverage surrounding the tsunami is subsiding, but the
misery of those it affected remains. What impact has the disaster had on
regional conflicts? And is Europe fulfilling its responsibilities, not only
in South East Asia but elsewhere?

 <http://www.cafebabel.com/en/article.asp?T=T&Id=3067> The European Wave
The biggest natural disaster in history has prompted a flood of donations
which will be difficult to maintain for long. It remains to be seen if we
are just caught up by events or if we are in it for the long haul
		 Gonzalo de Mendoza - Bruxelles

 <http://www.cafebabel.com/en/article.asp?T=A&Id=1063> Aid is not enough
The tsunami may have put poverty, aid and debt back on the political agenda
but what is really needed is a reappraisal of the fiscal relationship
between the richest and poorest nations
		 Chris Yeomans - Durham

 <http://www.cafebabel.com/en/article.asp?T=T&Id=3068> Hope for Aceh?
The humanitarian crisis caused by the tsunami offers the Indonesian
government the chance to resolve the conflict between separatists and the
army, although there is also the risk of a renewed escalation in violence
		 Ulrich Schwerin - Paris

 <http://www.cafebabel.com/en/article.asp?T=T&Id=3069> Humanitarian aid:
the good and the bad
Who should intervene? National governments, the UN or NGOs? These are the
groups promoting worldwide solidarity but which have been subject to harsh
criticism in relation to the Tsunami disaster. Europeís ëgenerosityí has
also not escaped criticism
		 Tommaso Merlo - Milano

 <http://www.cafebabel.com/en/article.asp?T=T&Id=3066> Sri Lankaís
forgotten North
The tsunami has made far-flung places such as Galle or Ko Phi Phi suddenly
sound familiar. But Sri Lankaís Tamil region, one of the worst hit areas,
has not come under the spot-light of the international media
		 Stella Willborn - Bruxelles
