Monsoon season

It's kind of saddening to see that when a bunch of westerners get killed in any disaster, it's generally quite prominant in the news, but when 200 people in India are killed by floods, 1500 in India and Nepal since the start of monsoon season in June, it doesn't even make it into the Dominion Post! 57,000 people evacuated in one area, 300,000 in another - that's really not insignificant!
