Abstract

On 26 December 2004, an earthquake and tsunami—the world’s worst natural disaster in living memory—struck the Indian Ocean region, killing more than 150,000 people, making almost a million homeless, and sending a wave of shock, an outpouring of sympathy and offers of assistance from across the globe. Indonesia bore the worst brunt of the disaster, concentrated in the provinces of Aceh and North Sumatra. With more than 115,000 people dead and 20 per cent of the Acehnese population homeless, no family in the region is untouched by the disaster.
