Re: Dutch TV2 - Telethon for Quake Victims
Acha.. dis is off the record.. but dis morning i read abt 3 girls in Den haag or Rotterdam who were around the age of 14/15. They were collecting money claiming to collecting it for Pakistan. But they got arrested cuz they wanted to keep the money to demselfs.. 
That’s juz sick.. to make advantage of other peoples misery.. the money they collected so far is after all given to 800800.

Re: Dutch TV2 - Telethon for Quake Victims
^ wid the tsunami they collectes abt 90 million.. they wonder y people didn't gave so much this time.. anyway..many people r afraid that the money wont go 2 the right places..thas y many people didn't donated so much..
Re: Dutch TV2 - Telethon for Quake Victims
The standing now is 13.3 million euros…cool…this collection has been achieved within 80 minutes… :k:
Re: Dutch TV2 - Telethon for Quake Victims
Score: Holland vs World XI 3-1 (2nd half)...
Re: Dutch TV2 - Telethon for Quake Victims
Just to correct you…the Tsunami donations ended upto some 212 million euros…I think the collection was so huge due to the enourmous geographical areas the tsunami hit and some 12 countries were affected…and of course the water quake…
Re: Dutch TV2 - Telethon for Quake Victims
Final score…Holland vs WorldXI 7-4…the match yielded almost 1 million… :k:
Re: Dutch TV2 - Telethon for Quake Victims
They also said on the news, that many people here don't realise how big the disaster really is. (!!!)
Anyway, those three girls were also on the news here. The reporter said they would have to pay a fine and that collected money will still go to giro 800800. :)
I don't ever want to hear from anyone again that only Pakistani's do baimanie.
