Beijing News: How should we commemorate May 12th earthquake
|
The municipal government of Southwest China's Chengdu city has released a report about the spending of social donations after the May 12th earthquake last year.
The report says the city had received money donation, equal to around 1 and half billion US dollars by March.
70 percent of the funds have been used in the relief and reconstruction work.
The Beijing News published an editorial, saying the report is a good gift to the victims in memory of the devastating earthquake.
The author says the move demonstrates the transparency of government work.
It's also a responsible action that respects every donor's right to track their money.
The newspaper calls on the governments of other affected regions to follow suit.
The author further notes that as more memorial activities are planned ahead of the one year commemoration of the disaster, people should express their sincerity and best wishes.
The article suggests a close inspection of the reconstruction work.
It notes not only the details of donations, but also the government investment should be made public.
