SYDNEY, Australia (AP) - Many of the nations offering aid to the United States after Hurricane Katrina including India, South Korea, Japan and Germany said Wednesday they were still waiting to hear back from Washington on whether their donations had been accepted.
India, which regularly suffers flooding unleashed by monsoon rains, has a planeload of supplies waiting but nowhere to send it.
"The plane is parked at the airport here and we are awaiting instructions on where to send the medicines and food items," an External Affairs Ministry official said Wednesday, declining to be identified under government briefing rules.
