The situation in Nepal is quite severe after the strong earthquake and help from outside is still not enough.
see the video below:
 
As humans, we are all concerned with the difficulties faced by all our sisters and brothers.

What a wonderful thing it would be if collectively the world would concentrate on doing the right thing. Food, lodging and medical care is possible for all people on the planet if that is what we wanted.

Unfortunately, a few want too much. The 'best' are the enemy of the good.

'Kind, creative' Texas teacher murdered in Nepal
September 8, 2015 | Police in Nepal on Tuesday were searching the Seti River for the body of an Austin art teacher murdered while helping with earthquake recovery efforts in the mountainous South Asian nation.
Authorities say Dahlia Yehia, 27, was beaten to death Aug. 7 by Narayan Paudel, who was hosting Yehia while she worked in and around the Nepalese city of Pokhara. The Pokhara area, 120 miles west of the capital city of Kathmandu, was devastated by an April earthquake that killed more than 8,000 people and destroyed thousands of homes. Nepalese police official Govinda Adhikari told The Himalayan Times that Paudel was arrested Wednesday. The next day he admitted beating Yehi with a hammer while she slept, then throwing the body into the river. Adhikari said police found blood-soaked sheets and a pillow from the room.

Paudel, while being questioned, attempted to flee the police building by leaping off the roof, Adhikari said. Paudel was hospitalized with a broken leg and other injuries, the official said. Police officals Hari Bahadur Pal told the Associated Press that investigators believe robbery was a motive for the killing. Pal said officials will press for the maximum sentence of life in prison for Paudel, 30, but need to find Yehia's body to strengthen their case.

Yehia arrived in Nepal in late July and began staying with Paudel on Aug. 4, authorities said. Family and friends of Yehia had created a community page on Facebook titled "Find Dahlia," saying they last had contact with her Aug. 6. "We have seen an incredible outpouring of love and support during these past few weeks, from every corner of the globe," a post from Friday said. "Recently, we received word from the U.S. Embassy that Dahlia's life has been taken from us. We do not have any further details at this time and are asking for everyone to respect the privacy for her family."

Bailey Bounds, Communications Coordinator for Wayside Schools, told KVUE-TV that said Yehia taught art to 7th through 11th graders at Wayside's Sci-Tech Preparatory School in south Austin last school year. "She was a very valuable part of our community and we are really going to miss her," Bounds said. Administrators are planning a memorial for Yehia at the Sci-Tech Preparatory School. A picture of 'Ms. Y," as her students called her, along with some of her art pieces will be put up on a wall inside the school and students will be able to write messages as they try to cope with her death. "She was a really kind, creative person who really genuinely cared about the students and they really loved her," Bounds said.

Assuming the motive will end up being about rejected sexual advances. Robbery doesn't make any sense. Can rob people wihtout hammering them to death as they sleep.
