Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 74084, member: 636"] Guyana just shipped out its second batch of hurricane relief gear headed for Jamaica after Melissa tore through the island and left families scrambling for shelter. The MV Falk loaded up with enough materials to rebuild 200 roofs plus mattresses, water tanks, and rice before pulling out from the Friendship wharf, and it should dock in about six days. Local companies made the mattresses and tanks, which the Civil Defence Commission director said shows the country can handle regional disaster response with homegrown production. Defence Force engineers will head over to help put roofs back together once everything lands, and officials grabbed available cargo space on a ship that was already hauling lumber for a private timber company. A third relief run with more food and building supplies is set to roll out in two weeks, keeping the support pipeline active while Jamaica tries to bounce back. [/QUOTE]
