A Filipino friend tells me the best way to help those devastated by Super Typhoon Yolanda (Haiyan) is through the Philippines Embassy.
You can find the necessary details halfway down the Embassy website’s front page, i.e.,
the Federation of Filipino Associations, Societies and Clubs in New Zealand Inc. (FFASCNZ Inc.) is now making the necessary arrangements. Donations may be made at the following bank account:

We welcome thoughtful disagreement.
But we do (ir)regularly moderate comments -- and we *will* delete any with insulting or abusive language. Or if they're just inane. It’s okay to disagree, but pretend you’re having a drink in the living room with the person you’re disagreeing with. This includes me.
PS: Have the honesty and courage to use your real name. That gives added weight to any opinion.
