God's Punishment

This is a story of inspired leadership in response to the world's greatest recorded natural disaster, the 2004 Indian Ocean Tsunami. Centred on Aceh, Indonesia's hard-hit western province, 'God's Punishment' tells of the global leadership that responded to this tragedy, military leadership that brought peace to a land in conflict, national leadership that led the great humanitarian response and individual leadership that laid the foundations for recovery despite dark opposing forces. This is the first of six books in 'Tsunami Chronicles: Adventures in Disaster Management'. It begins an epic journey into the dangerous and difficult world of emergency response. A practical study, 'God's Punishment' demonstrates the power of positive political leadership in delivering breakthrough results when confronting man-made and natural disasters. The lessons are as relevant today with global warming and climate change as they were when the tsunami struck.
