Can't remember the documentary, but an African hospital needed money for ambulances to reach wide rural areas. Instead of spending the money on ambulances, they bought themselves a dozen or so luxury 4x4's and one ambulance. Funny how years later that still sticks in my mind - even more than 'Live Aid'. So, how about recording these practices from the inside as a 'volunteer'? Public anger forces governments to act - especially if there's a bandwagon to jump on.
On a personal note, I don't believe in any kind of organized charity for the worlds poor. We've had the power to fix these problems for decades, but haven't. Perhaps it's meant to be - or perhaps we're making it worse. Just my thoughts.
