Concern for the fate of Nepalese students currently in Australia

Submitted by Mulligrubs on Mon, 01/06/2015 - 12:33pm

Following the tragic earthquake of 25th April 2015 the city of Kathmandu is in ruins. It may take years to recover economically, if ever.

There are many Nepalese students studying in Australia whose future was destroyed with the earthquake. There are no longer jobs to return to. There is no hope of future success in Nepal. Parents and other family members are living in tents and sleeping in cars.
