Plug all loopholes

How to make sure that every penny and the materials donated are reasonably and efficiently used in earthquake relief has become a concern for both donors and those who manage the fund. The donations amounted to more than 32.7 billion yuan ($4.72 billion) as of yesterday.

It goes without saying that more efficiently and reasonably the money and materials are used, the more quake survivors will benefit from them. And of course, every person who has donated money and materials is expecting that his or her benevolence will contribute as effectively as possible to the alleviation of the survivors' suffering.

The transparency about the entire process of rescue efforts and disaster relief so far has contributed substantially to what has been achieved so far.
