While I appreciate the relief efforts, I wish the government would be more transparent about the costs involved in Operation Brahma. Humanitarian aid is important, but taxpayers deserve to know the financial details.

The IAF C17 doing double duty - bringing supplies and taking back personnel - shows efficient planning. Small details like this make a big difference in disaster response operations. Well done!
