I am looking for a sponsor or program to aid a little girl with leukemia in Indonesia, what is out there

I am looking for a sponsor or program to aid a little girl with leukemia in Indonesia, what is out there?
I have a friend working in Indonesia who encountered a girl with leukemia. This is third world life and there is no medical programs around to help her, not to mention her family would never be able to afford it. What sponsors or programs are out there that offer aid to either bring her the help she needs or transfer her to a country where she can get the help to live the life she doesn't deserve to have taken away? Please, if you have any information, let me know. If I am not specific enough, contact me. Thank you.

Would it be 'safer' to enter Indonesia on an Australian or British passport

Would it be 'safer' to enter Indonesia on an Australian or British passport?
I am a dual citizen hoping to live and work in Indonesia in the future, and wonder if it would be deemed safer to be a citizen of either of the countries. Thanks! :) Plan to teach, hopefully in an international school :) Thanks very much to all who have answered.

yes, you are. lots of expatriate live and works here. and i believe everything is a lot better than years ago. indonesian won't hate you because of your nationalities. it's a safe place to work and live. you gonna love it. i'm indonesian but now work and live in united states, but i do love my country, for better or worse. one more thing, don't trust everything you see on tv,sometimes is just one-side story.
2 :
Australia has a history of problems with Indonesia, whereas Britain not so much. You'd probably be safe on either - depending on what you intend to do and where you plan to go while here. You never did state what your plans in Indonesia are.
3 :
I think it won't be necessary to think about your nationality when you go to Indonesia. As I am a balinese and live in Bali, we have never been in a problem with foreigners, and I also see a lot foreigners live and work here.
4 :
British or Australian passport both are safe but i think British passport will be 'safer' than Australian passport coz some of 'problems' that we had/have wit Australia government.

This cannot be help. Companies need to keep their overheads low so that tey can make huge profits for their invesors. Automation sadly can displace people, so people will have to re-train to do jobs that cannot be done by computers.

its call globalization dumba55. computer just the machine and they will still need HUMAN BRAIN. You can see who has BRAIN and who`s not..... LIKE YOU!!!!
3 :
I was told that there were no computers in hell. Why don't you excuse yourself, and go check it out? While you're there, say hello to Osama and friends. And, please .. don't bother to come back. We no longer need people like you. We are long for a peaceful and quite world. Have a safe travel to hell!

My dad was a banker, and the bank (Citibank) in Alabama office employed about 1000 employees before the 90's. Now they had expanded the business, the odd thing is the number of employees kept declining until about 900 employees although they opened new branches in countries or downtowns. I think ARS is right at some points. The brain stuff huh? You don't need to be a grandmaster to beat Kasparov, chessmaster software will easily do it for you. I know a friend in MIT who can simulate human's brain. We can't race against the machine. Siallan, have you ever heard the term "Artificial Inteligence" or "fuzzy logic"? A single chip can solve algebra equations 10.000 times the number you can solve from 1st grade to 12th grade in just a second .

On the other hand, computer creates many jobs too. See how many people are working on computer stuff in Mangga Dua, Glodok or Roxy area. Don't blame the technology just because you cannot operate the computer.
6 :
This question is quite interesting. BJ Habibie once said that 1 ton of rice worth only 1 million Rp (that time) while 1 ton of technology worth 1 million US$. Devastated you said that computer makes jobs for their sales & technical service... I can say that the IT fields may make living for 1000-2000 people in Indonesia but make 1000000-2000000 people jobless.
7 :
You cannot blame the computer, dude... It is effect of globalization... If you don't want lose your job, don't live like the past when all job only doing manually....! Remember, computer still need person who can operate them... So, you must expert operating computer, even only Microsoft Office, since at present if you want to get a job, you must expert in certain software... Be smart! Experting use computer could make your live better... If you lose your job, like you've said, because your job replaced by computer, you can use computer to get work again... ! You can get money from Internet. You can open "store" without need a building, you just create your own website to promote your products. You can open computer course to children. You can use computer to write your own novel. Or, you can use computer to design post-card that you can sell to bookstore.

Computer can't work by itself. It needs somebody to operate it. It is everybody's responsibility to upgrade their competence to keep up. Stop whining. Start working hard and thinking smart. Cut down birth rate to improve the quality, not the quantity. Improve the education system. Stop corruption! Stop clinging to your past. Far before you were even born, there were cave men... Do you want to live in the cave and give up the facilities you have now? I bet you'll miss your computer a lot. If the bank employees are asked to choose whether they'd like to work with their computers or to work manually, what do you think they'd choose? I bet they wouldn't let go off their computers. Would you?
9 :
Hai, I think you're very funny guy... never tired of asking dumb question ha? :D STOP waste your time here, and get your self write a letter rather then sending email. in that case you're giving more jobs to a post man.
10 :
kindda hard to grasp what you meant. but here it goes: Computer does not cause unemployment in Indonesia. Unemployment caused by low quality of human resources. lack of initiative and break through in thinking makes company hard to grow, not enough leaders to lead the company eventually make company can not grow. Computer really makes job easier but it also makes company even more productive and should have more income thus more power to employ even more people. just can not employ stupid people who will just consume company's power
