well..Beggars have no choice.
US gave 11.74 billions, So Chinese masters are paying less than US masters.
Where is Ummah support? Pakistan is getting money from a communist (kafir) country.
Wow! China that is sitting on $3.5 trillion dollar reserve and whose GDP is $7.5 Trillion is giving $1.5M !! This is like a person in Pakistan, with earnings of Rupees $10 million per month giving a beggar Rupee 1 as alm. While, beggars can't be choosy, China's grand donation of $1.5M can't be anything but an insult.
"The assistance has been provided to Pakistan as a token of friendship between the two countries." $1.5 million? Oops- Going by the higher than mountains, deeper than oceans song that we hear from the Foreign Office spokesman time and time again, doesn't this amount appear peanuts?
Thank you China. You are a friend indeed, 'cause you are a friend in need.
Despite the fact there are floods and natural calamity in China as well, the Chinese People & Government not only bravely coping with the difficult situation at home but also extending help to their friend Pakistan.
For that we the people of Pakistan are grateful for the people of China.
A Friend In Need Is A Friend Indeed.
Long Live Pak China Friendship.

Only 1.5 million aid from a country which has trillions in $$$ reserves. It’s a slap on the face not aid.
