Help YOGYAKARTA
The province of Yogyakarta bore the brunt of a 6.3-magnitude earthquake on 27 May 2006 which killed 5,137 people and left some 1,700 persons injured. More than 13,000 houses are damaged. 200,000 are homeless. (source: http://iys.cidi.org/disaster/ins.06e27/)
The earthquake extensively damaged the local region of Bantul, and its surrounding hinterland. The most significant number of deaths occurred in this region. The Royal Graveyard of Imogiri had extensive damage, and has been closed.
The coincidence of the recent eruption of Gunung Merapi, and the earthquake would not be lost on the older and more superstitious Javanese - as such natural phenonomena are given considerable import within their understanding of the spiritual aspect of such events.
