Just discovered this blog, seems really thorough and informative. I work with a int development charity and our partners in South East Asia are under a lot of pressure. I work with HelpAge International and we find that often older people are pushed to one side when it comes to emergency responses and disaster relief. We're also part of the DEC appeal, so that will help but as you said about the World Bank figures, so much more is needed...
If anyone is interested, please have a look at our staff's posts from the Philippines and Vietnam www.helpage.org/blogs/
