demand on enteral nutrients in Japan


These are the messages Naomi sent with a small amount of enteral nutrients she could buy from shops in Western Australia, to Japan.
Obviously, they were shipped by the fastest postage with a normal postage cost.

It's not widely known that there are big shortage of enteral nutrients in the disaster area of Japan.
The Japanese factory has enough supply, but
since the container factories were all washed away by Tsunami,
they are not able to ship out the nutrients to people. 

Taiwan has already supplied about 7000 cans to Japan,
however, they will be consumed quite quickly that
they are quite desperate for more.

People who depend on these nutrients are sick people who can not consume normal food.
Needless to say, their condition will deteriorate without nutrients.

Naomi has been collecting donation from Japanese people who live in Western Australia,
and has been buying and shipping what she could to the most needed places.

Abott Australia has considered Naomi's act, and has now joined with Americare
to ship supply of these nutrients to Japan as an International team.
They are now discussing the matter with the Japanese government
as the number of supply is enormous.

In the meantime, Naomi is working hard to get the information of the most needed places
and gathering the most recent information of the needs of Japanese people
as they will change as time goes by.

If anyone can help Naomi's activity, please e-mail her naoan.champ@gmail.com
