The World Today Vol 62 No 1 January 2006, pp.11-12Summary: Almost a year after the tsunami some 430,000 Achenese are still living in tents, temporary housing or with friends. Only ten percent of the 120,000 homes needed have been rebuilt. Not surprisingly, the reconstruction effort has been criticised as being too slow. Comparitively more progress has been made on transforming the three-decade conflict between the Indonesian state and the Free Aceh Movement (GAM). Peace talks were renewed after the tsunami and a memorandum of understanding was signed in August 2005, but challenges remain.
