Kurdi, a resident of Hatay, the southernmost province of the nation, didn\u2019t think much of them at first. But then he heard a loud rumbling sound from the earth, followed by violent shaking and then a blackout. \u201cMy children were all screaming,\u201d said Kurdi. \u201cMy youngest son fell on me and became completely silent.\u201d<\/p><p>Using all his strength, Kurdi pulled his four-year-old son out from under a collapsed closet. Then they and the rest of their family hurried downstairs in the darkness. When they had escaped to safety outside, they turned and saw the six-story building in which they had lived collapse in front of their eyes, one floor after another. \u201cThe violence of the shaking this time blew my mind,\u201d Kurdi recalled. \u201cYou had only a few short minutes to respond.\u201d<\/p><p>Outside, it was very cold and raining. Kurdi waited until it was light, then began quickly working with his neighbors to rescue survivors from under the rubble. \u201cOver the next three days, there were people calling for help from under toppled buildings on every street. But I had only a hammer. When I had managed to get one person out, more asked for help from me. Some refused to be saved because their family members had been killed.\u201d<\/p><p>Some time later, Kurdi and his family went to Istanbul to live temporarily with relatives. During the 1,100-kilometer (685-mile) journey there, they didn\u2019t eat or drink anything. The meal they had at El Menahil International School, where Kurdi\u2019s brother worked, was their first meal in three days.<\/p><p>Kurdi\u2019s face had been injured, having been hit hard by a falling object during the quake. His clothes were covered in dust, and his hands, soiled and swollen, trembled every now and then.

A large number of residential buildings were reduced to rubble while people slept soundly. Nine hours later, another strong quake, this one with a magnitude of 7.5, hit Kahramanmara\u015f Province, to the north of Gaziantep. The result was more damage, death, and injury.<\/p><p>The severity of the devastation was caused by a perfect storm of factors: the large magnitude of the quakes, buildings not built to withstand severe earthquakes, and a bitter cold front that dropped the temperatures to lower than -10\u00b0C (14\u00b0 F) the day after the quakes. The combination of these resulted in more than 40,000 people killed, 100,000 injured, and over ten million affected in T\u00fcrkiye alone.<\/p><p>T\u00fcrkiye, which encompasses the junction of three tectonic plates, is prone to earthquakes. In 1999, for example, the country was struck by two earthquakes with a magnitude greater than seven. But the strong tremors that had hit the nation had for decades been concentrated in the east and northwest; the south hadn\u2019t been hit by a major quake in over a century. The capability of local buildings, both old and new, to resist a quake had never been tested.<br \/>The two powerful earthquakes and a series of aftershocks wrecked a huge area in 11 southern provinces in T\u00fcrkiye. The disaster zone was three times as large as Taiwan. Some regions in northern Syria, located to the south of T\u00fcrkiye, also suffered severe damage.<\/p><p>Northern Syria has long been under the control of resistance forces; armed conflicts have been going on there since the Syrian civil war broke out in 2011. Almost all of the buildings that had not been destroyed in the war had sustained some sort of damage from artillery and mortar shelling, which made them even less capable of withstanding a major earthquake. It\u2019s sad to think of the Syrian people, who have already suffered a lot from the war, to be hit by even more tragedy.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-31a5ead elementor-section-full_width elementor-section-stretched elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"31a5ead\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;stretch_section&quot;:&quot;section-stretched&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-no\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-110b870\" data-id=\"110b870\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1ffe1a7 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"1ffe1a7\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1440\" height=\"811\" src=\"https:\/\/tcmonthly.tzuchiculture.org.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2023\/03\/1352606-\u54f2\u4fee.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/tcmonthly.tzuchiculture.org.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2023\/03\/1352606-\u54f2\u4fee.jpg 1440w, https:\/\/tcmonthly.tzuchiculture.org.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2023\/03\/1352606-\u54f2\u4fee-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/tcmonthly.tzuchiculture.org.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2023\/03\/1352606-\u54f2\u4fee-1024x577.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/tcmonthly.tzuchiculture.org.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2023\/03\/1352606-\u54f2\u4fee-768x433.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1440px) 100vw, 1440px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c7a0ed9 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"c7a0ed9\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Tzu Chi volunteers assessing damage in Hatay Province greet quake survivors who had returned to their collapsed homes to salvage belongings. <span style=\"color: #808080;\"><em>YU ZI-CHENG<\/em><\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-98e92a8 elementor-widget-divider--view-line elementor-widget elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"98e92a8\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider-separator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-515a0f8 elementor-section-full_width elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"515a0f8\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-no\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-31a9e1e\" data-id=\"31a9e1e\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-887a7dd elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"887a7dd\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h5><strong>Rushing in blankets<\/strong><\/h5>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-521663d elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"521663d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>The devastation caused by the earthquakes shocked the world. More than 60 countries sent in rescue teams to help save lives. Taiwan\u2019s National Fire Agency, for example, dispatched 130 rescuers in two groups to T\u00fcrkiye. The first group arrived in Adiyaman Province, a hard-hit area, on February 8. Volunteers from the International Headquarters S.A.R., Taiwan, a non-governmental organization, also flew to T\u00fcrkiye to aid in the search and rescue efforts.<\/p><p>The Tzu Chi Foundation, based in Taiwan, responded quickly too. While preparing to dispatch a delegation to T\u00fcrkiye to assess damage and carry out relief work, the foundation launched a fundraiser and initiated other aid work in the immediate aftermath of the disaster.<\/p><p>\u201cThe disaster area is huge,\u201d said Yen Po-wen (\u984f\u535a\u6587), CEO of the Tzu Chi charity mission. \u201cBut wherever we want to go [within the disaster area], we are required to work with the Turkish government or the organizations they have authorized to coordinate the relief work.\u201d The CEO said that the Turkish government allowed only rescue workers and media personnel to enter the disaster areas immediately after the quake; all donations of relief supplies, on the other hand, were required to be referred to T\u00fcrkiye\u2019s Disaster and Emergency Management Presidency for management and distribution. In other words, all aid from abroad, once it was transported into T\u00fcrkiye, was to be handed over to the Turkish government for further allocation. Any distribution events would have to be supervised by government agencies as well.<\/p><p>After the tremors, Recep Tayyip Erdo\u011fan, the President of T\u00fcrkiye, declared a state of emergency for the earthquake zone. The government tightly controlled everything, including the coming and going of people and goods related to disaster relief work. It was a real challenge to obtain tax-exemption on imported relief goods or get permission to collect, transport, and distribute relief goods on one\u2019s own. Even so, Tzu Chi personnel worked hard to negotiate with the Turkish government on these matters.<\/p><p>On February 8, Tzu Chi headquarters in Hualien, eastern Taiwan, instructed the foundation\u2019s Neihu office in Taipei, northern Taiwan, to quickly prepare and pack more than 8,000 extra-thick Tzu Chi blankets (made from recycled plastic bottles) to be transported to T\u00fcrkiye by air. Tzu Chi volunteers in northern Taiwan worked overnight and had all the blankets ready for shipping the very next day. The first batch of blankets were flown to T\u00fcrkiye that very night.<\/p><p>\u201cStandard-size Tzu Chi blankets are packed five to a bag and two bags to a box,\u201d explained volunteer Wu Yue-ying (\u5433\u6708\u9daf). \u201cThe extra-thick blankets, on the other hand, are packed three to a bag and two bags to a box.\u201d Wu added that the 8,000-plus extra-thick blankets weighed about the same as more than 13,000 standard-size blankets. Since the weather was cold in the disaster areas, the blankets would be very useful to survivors.<\/p><p>\u201cThanks to all Taiwanese people,\u201d said Muhammed Berdibek, T\u00fcrkiye\u2019s representative to Taiwan. \u201cThanks for your generous support for T\u00fcrkiye after the quake.\u201d Berdibek said those words in the donation ceremony for the 8,000-plus blankets, held at the Turkish Trade Office in Taipei. The representative also thanked Tzu Chi for their help. He said that when their trade office called for in-kind donations from Taiwanese people after the tremors and needed a place to receive and sort the donated goods, Tzu Chi donated blankets to them and provided its facility (the Tzu Chi Neihu office) to serve as a center to receive the goods donated by Taiwanese people. His gratitude for the foundation was obvious.<\/p><p>\u201cThe quakes wreaked such havoc that almost all houses in the disaster areas collapsed,\u201d said Ayse Ucar (\u803f\u6176\u829d), a staffer at the Turkish Trade Office in Taipei. \u201cSurvivors are sleeping outdoors and have no access to running water or electricity. The Turkish government can\u2019t tend to the needs of so many people at the same time, so they appealed for aid from the outside world.\u201d Ucar added that T\u00fcrkiye\u2019s diplomatic posts all over the world had started raising needed relief items for the quake victims in their country.<\/p><p>The Turkish Trade Office in Taipei solicited the donation of 17 kinds of necessities from Taiwanese people, including new or unused winter clothes, blankets, and sleeping bags. Donated items began flooding into Tzu Chi\u2019s Neihu office as soon as their donation request was sent out. Tzu Chi volunteers and many members of the public pitched in to sort and pack the goods.

After meeting with local volunteers, they started working to organize relief work for quake survivors.<\/p><p>The Tzu Chi team flew to Ankara, T\u00fcrkiye\u2019s capital, on February 12 to meet with the nation\u2019s vice president, Fuat Oktay. This was via the introduction of Ali Uslanmaz, a former deputy governor of Kayseri Province. Tzu Chi finally obtained permission to enter areas hit hard by the quakes. Early on the morning of February 15, an advance Tzu Chi team set off from Istanbul, and after traveling for more than 1,000 kilometers (620 miles), arrived in the hard-hit Hatay Province, which borders Syria.<\/p><p>The volunteers set up a disaster response center at a hotel owned by a friend of former deputy governor Ali Uslanmaz, then began visiting shelters for survivors. They also conferred with personnel from other relief organizations to explore possible partnerships.<\/p><p>\u201cWe also assessed damage in provinces near Hatay Province to evaluate whether to hold distributions there,\u201d said Simon Shyong (\u718a\u58eb\u6c11), deputy CEO of the Tzu Chi charity mission and a member of the Tzu Chi delegation from Taiwan. He said that their team\u2019s mission was to assess who should receive Tzu Chi\u2019s aid, how to get relief items into the disaster zone, and where to temporarily store those items. He explained that they would follow Tzu Chi\u2019s guiding principles for relief work and find locations in which Tzu Chi could personally distribute aid to survivors. \u201cWe\u2019ll also explore possibilities to help with the reconstruction work in the future.\u201d<\/p><p>Many survivors flooded into Istanbul after the quakes to seek help from or live temporarily with their relatives. Tzu Chi T\u00fcrkiye mobilized volunteers to visit this group of people and compile recipient rosters for distributions. Aid was subsequently distributed from February 17 to 19 to 1,044 families. The items given out included blankets, scarves, and gift cards.<\/p><p>\u201cTheir houses had collapsed in the earthquakes,\u201d said Faisal Hu (\u80e1\u5149\u4e2d), a Tzu Chi volunteer in T\u00fcrkiye, referring to the aid recipients. \u201cLeft with nothing, they had no choice but to come to Istanbul to seek help from their friends or relatives. Our aid can help tide them over a difficult time.\u201d Hu said that Tzu Chi T\u00fcrkiye mobilized nearly 300 Syrian refugee volunteers to make home visits. From the visits, the volunteers learned that what was most needed by the survivors was items that could protect them from the cold. Volunteers therefore quickly set to work purchasing blankets for distribution.<\/p><p>Twenty-four years ago, in 1999, a strong earthquake hit T\u00fcrkiye on August 17. Tzu Chi had at the time purchased blankets at a discounted price from a local manufacturer for distribution to quake survivors. Volunteers were happy to learn that the manufacturer was still in business after all these years. Even better, the manufacturer agreed to sell blankets to Tzu Chi for a reduced price again. They also agreed to rush to get the order out.<\/p><p>On the eve of the distributions, the first shipment of blankets\u2014more than 2,600\u2014arrived at El Menahil International School by truck. All the male teaching and administrative staff at the school turned out to unload the goods. They finished unloading and moving all the blankets into a storage space in just half an hour. The first man to climb onto the truck for the unloading had been Cuma Serya, the principal of the school. \u201cEvery one of us feels that those who can help others are the happiest,\u201d the principal said. \u201cWe had a great time unloading the blankets. We hope to share with everyone the joy we feel.\u201d<\/p><p>Whether it is extending care to quake survivors who are staying in Istanbul or providing emergency aid in the disaster zone, a lot of relief supplies and manpower are needed. Fortunately, because Tzu Chi established El Menahil International School for Syrian refugee children and has also for years been helping refugee families, the foundation has developed a strong team which can be tapped when help is needed to carry out work in response to a disaster or other emergency events. In addition, many graduates of the school, now in college, are willing and capable of assisting Tzu Chi with its disaster relief work.<\/p><p>\u201cThe volunteers we need will have to be able to speak Turkish, Arabic, and English,\u201d said volunteer Hu. He explained that the Syrian young people from whom they are planning to enlist as volunteers are 11th and 12th graders at the school and graduates that are attending college. They will provide help, such as interpreting for Tzu Chi volunteers from Taiwan visiting T\u00fcrkiye for the quake relief work. \u201cI\u2019ve asked the school to collect information on the following: what students have special talents; their majors in which university; what languages they can speak; the dates on which they will be free to volunteer, etc. We\u2019ll build a database with this information to facilitate our future work.\u201d<\/p><p>Hu added that the school\u2019s staffers he had talked to had told him that whether Tzu Chi needed a hundred people or even 300, there would be no problems. They said they could quickly organize a big enough team of volunteers for Tzu Chi. \u201cI believe they can,\u201d Hu said with confidence.<\/p><p>Aside from the disaster areas in southern T\u00fcrkiye, Tzu Chi has also launched work to help survivors in northern Syria. Chen Chiou Hwa (\u9673\u79cb\u83ef), a volunteer in Jordan, said that Tzu Chi Jordan had prepared over 10,000 jackets, pairs of shoes, hats, and gloves for affected Syrians. There were, additionally, Taiwanese businesspeople who had said they\u2019d donate winter clothing to help. If things went as expected, the United Nations would help transport Tzu Chi\u2019s aid supplies from northern Jordan into southern Syria and deliver them across areas controlled by the Syrian government into the disaster zone in the north, controlled by resistance forces.<\/p><p>For the quake survivors, the path to recovery won\u2019t be easy, but hopefully, love from across the globe will help them get back on their feet.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-1bb7cdee elementor-section-full_width elementor-section-stretched elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"1bb7cdee\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;stretch_section&quot;:&quot;section-stretched&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-no\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-25a3eda2\" data-id=\"25a3eda2\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-57a61080 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"57a61080\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1440\" height=\"960\" src=\"https:\/\/tcmonthly.tzuchiculture.org.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2023\/03\/DSC09224-\u54f2\u4fee.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/tcmonthly.tzuchiculture.org.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2023\/03\/DSC09224-\u54f2\u4fee.jpg 1440w, https:\/\/tcmonthly.tzuchiculture.org.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2023\/03\/DSC09224-\u54f2\u4fee-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/tcmonthly.tzuchiculture.org.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2023\/03\/DSC09224-\u54f2\u4fee-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/tcmonthly.tzuchiculture.org.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2023\/03\/DSC09224-\u54f2\u4fee-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/tcmonthly.tzuchiculture.org.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2023\/03\/DSC09224-\u54f2\u4fee-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/tcmonthly.tzuchiculture.org.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2023\/03\/DSC09224-\u54f2\u4fee-330x220.jpg 330w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1440px) 100vw, 1440px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6e4d3313 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"6e4d3313\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Tzu Chi purchased 10,000 blankets in Istanbul for distribution to quake victims.
