MSF asks to stop donations as they have too much...
Quite incredible. Basically, they've too much, and being a strictly medical agency, they can't spend it on reconstruction etc.

Look also at the generosity of the public towards this particular incident:
"8 jours après la catastrophe, nous avons déjà collecté plus de 40 millions d'euros de fonds affectés à cette crise au niveau international, dont 5 millions pour la seule section française de MSF. A titre d'exemple, l'année dernière à la même époque, pour le tremblement de terre à Bam, en Iran, nous avions recueilli 600 000 euros en 15 jours en France. Cet été, pour le Darfour, nous avons réuni un peu plus de 650 000 euros en deux mois. Aujourd'hui, nous sommes donc réellement face à des volumes de fonds collectés jamais atteints en un temps si court. "

Translated with Babelfish...
"8 days after the catastrophe, we already collected more than 40 d'euro million of funds assigned to this crisis at the international level, including 5 million for the only French section of MSF. With title d'exemple, l'année last at the same time, for the earthquake in Bam, in Iran, we had collected 600 000 euros in 15 days in France. This summer, for Darfour, we joined together a little more than 650 000 euros in two months. Aujourd'hui, we are thus really vis-a-vis with volumes of funds collected ever reached in a so short time.

And corrected into real English:
"8 days after the catastrophe, we already collected more than 40 million euros of funds assigned to this crisis at the international level, including 5 million only for the French section of MSF. By comparison, last year at the same time, for the earthquake in Bam, in Iran, we collected 600 000 euros in 15 days in France. This summer, for Darfour, we collected a little more than 650 000 euros in two months. Today, we are really faced with amounts of funds collected that we never achieved in such a short time. "
As said on one of the 3-minute argument threads, it shows how much people care about this crisis rather than the others which passed us by...
