Aussieroaming Posted February 20, 2020 Share Posted February 20, 2020 and what about the remaining millions raised by private donation....how much of that will be delivered to the rightful victims. Would be nice to see a audit trail to make sure that the money isn't absorbed into "Administrative Fees". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
