Pray for Indonesia


Am not claiming myself as a true nationalist or whatever, but i do love my home country Indonesia..
This post is about "Pray for Indonesia"..

Since nowadays most people are either with Blackberry or iPhone, sending forwarded emails is not so much in trend anymore.. People prefer to broadcast message directly from their mobile.. either with Blackberry Massenger or anykind of other social networking media..
I found this quite annoying sometimes, when people just keep on broadcasting unimportant (read: rubbish) message.. But lately, i do feel glad because those broadcasts are my way of keeping myself up to date about whats going on over there in Indonesia.. especially when my parents were in New Zealand, and practically no one's at home for quite sometime..

Lately there have been quite a lot of natural disasters going on in Indo..
First, we got this tsunami on the Mentawai Island, in West Coast of Sumatra..
Then, we got Merapi, one of the most active volcano in Java Island..
what makes it worst is Merapi keep on searing ash (we refer it as "wedhus gembel") that makes a lot of people got sick, respiration problem, cloudy air, and even the road got all white from the ash..
As soon as the news were spread, people started to use #PrayForIndonesia as their tag on Twitter and Facebook as well. I know who started this.. but there are some logo's of "Pray for Indonesia" being used. This i guess is a symbol to show their compassion and care with Indonesia..

Some news on either Tsunami in Mentawai and Merapi Volcano can be read here..
Let's together Pray for Indonesia..
let God be with those who need His help..
