Ireland pledges €1 million in aid (I have no idea who comes up with the figures for this stuff)

America pledges $4 million in aid

I'm not trying to make a point here, because I'm still doing the stunned monkey impression.

update: (thx, [livejournal.com profile] canetoad) That $4m appears to be just the Red Cross' slice of a $15m package. (CNN article). Also, the rather paltry sum of €3m that the EU had initially pledged has been upped to €30m.
