Singapore Help out in the China's Quake

A 55-STRONG team from Singapore will leave for earthquake-hit Chengdu province in China on Friday to help the local authorities in their search and rescue efforts.

A Ministry of Foreign Affairs statement said the contingent from the Disaster Assistance and Rescue Team (DART) will be led by LTC Ng How Juah, Commander of the 4th Civil Defence Division.

MFA said Singapore is sending the overseas rescue team at China's request.

Way to go... Sinkies...
