There are currently about 2,000 people sleeping/waiting at the FKS facility. Many are not well and have lost everything but the things on their backs. They have not been able to bath properly for several days now and food and water have been in shortage. The reaction to VMW being here has been good and they have thanked us and made very positive comments. We also have teamed up the Korean Disaster Relief ORG. = www.kdr.or.kr for this mission.
