Colin Powell, the US Secretary of State, is in Indonesia to see the destruction left behind by the tsunami. He flew over Aceh's destroyed provincial capital in a helicopter and was shocked by what he saw.
"I have been in war and I have been through a number of hurricanes, tornados and other relief operations, but I have never seen anything like this," Powell said. The death toll in Indonesia stands at 94,000 at present and is still rising.
A donors' conference is being held on Thursday in Jakarta, Mr Powell will be attending.
