More on the Relief Concert for Taiwan
News SOHU.com (Translated with Google Translate)
Fairly readable translation of news from SOHU about the Charity Relief "Spread the Love" concert on Friday for the victims of the Typhoon in Taiwan. It confirms Jackie's participation via a telephone link. A lot of familiar names will be taking part as well.

Typhoon Morakot Disaster Relief
I don't know if you all are aware of the Typhoon that hit the southern part of China (Fujian) and Taiwan on Friday/Saturday.
Some news here: LINK LINK 2 LINK 3 LINK4 (just as a random sampling of the news)
I believe there is also some footage on Youtube if you want to search for it.
One report has 2.5 meters of rain falling on Taiwan over the weekend, with 62 people dead, hundreds missing and $89 million damage. Over 1.4 million people have been displaced in China.
Anyway Andy Lau will be participating in a Taiwan Disaster Relief Event and Jackie is expected to also participate via a telephone link
Translated news on the event here
Disasters like this are always so hard to cope with because they are so overwhelming in their magnitude. My heart goes out to every person affected by this. I hope that everyone finds the help, comfort and support they need at this time.
