According to latest UN figures, around 113,000 people have been killed in the earthquake with another 196,000 injured. Up to now, UN aid to Haiti has improved significantly. "About 150 flights are flying to Haiti daily, 64 million meals have been distributed to 600,000 people," said Nandy, however, regarding the 3 million quake affected people including 1 million displaced from their homeland, the "relief work has just begun."

Both the UN officials stressed the importance of post-quake psycho-social support. "We learnt from the Wenchuan experience, there're people who are not physically injured, there's a huge psychological trauma, particularly among children and women. This is much more needed than physical support." Nandy explained.

Regarding the homeless children in Haiti, UN discouraged the adoption initiative, "because real orphans still needs time to settle before this task can move to the next stage", Malik explained.
