Valuable help
A US carrier battle group of five ships centered on the aircraft carrier Abraham Lincoln, and a Marine assault group of seven ships centered on the helicopter carrier Bonhomme Richard are heading for the Indian Ocean disaster area.
With a total of 37 helicopters between them and each ship capable of producing 90,000 gallons of fresh water each day their potential contribution to the relief effort will be invaluable.
I was surprised to discover that Indonesia is the largest Muslim country in the world with a population of 239 million four times greater than the population of the UK, and the world's fourth most populous country after China, India and the USA.
