Among the raft of countries sending earthquake relief teams to Haiti is Indonesia.

The personnel from Indonesia's National Disaster Handling Agency include experts in search and rescue as well as medics and other humanitarian workers.

As Al Jazeera English's Step Vaessen reports from Jakarta, Indonesia has extensive experience with natural disasters, particularly earthquakes. (Jan 18, 2010)

I was quite touched by this. It's awesome that countries from all over the world are coming together to help out the victims in Haiti.
