Ermm sorry... the billion in chinese is actually only 8 '0's so NT$118 billion should only be $11,800,000,000 which is around USD$400million. Note the word they used is assets which could actually means that might already spent and not in cash form.

I've posted on the newspaper facebook page too. We should speak up for the untrue reports and hopefully they do some self-reflection about it.

Thank you for your support ^^

Now who is the one making use of the Earthquake AND Ayu to boost their newspaper sales?

Sometimes, being a Singaporean, it's quite sad to see fellow Singaporeans only caring for themselves.

the article is so plain stupid.
That's it

Stupid article, there's no need to announce to the world about how much money you're gonna donate is there?
Ayu non-stop tweeting on twitter means she's trying to attract attention? Then what about the ppl who tell the whole world exactly how much they're donating?
Aren't they just trying to attract attention from the world too?
Why couldn't they have donated secretly without telling anyone?
It's the heart that counts, not the amount :/
Plus, Ayu probably donated secretly, kept it quiet, like any non-attention seeker would do.

Ooh tat is no good.. but obviously she is not doing tat for attention.. not jus her who is tweeting. Ayu def is concerned abt the earthquake happenings, not like wat they said!

The person who wrote this news's so pathetic and lame!

I think that this will become even worse. Especially since Ayu disclosed the number of her deposit to japan (30.000.000yen).

I feel sad for her, especially because she cares for the fans a lot. And I mean 143 messages in 1 day really shows that. And wth like ayu saw this earthquake and tsunami coming when she decided to pick March 30th as release date for her new album.

It's really annoying. I hope the author gets fired ..

From a Singaporean's point of view... I think Singapore has the least rights to bash artists on donating right now. >_>

I remember seeing an article saying that "Japan's affected, but Singaporeans are only worried about not being able to travel." It's so selfish and if you think of it, it's really hypocritical.

Besides, I don't get why the media is going crazy over celebs not donating/announcing their donations. I mean, it's none of their business (well it's their job BUT STILL.)!! Besides, they're probably just sitting behind their computers typing trash about celebs whereas they probably don't donate much or don't donate any at all! It's so ridiculous. Why so self-righteous when the media is so selfish in the first place?

=_= for promotion? who want buy album with that disaster condition?

I think it might've started from there when ayu responded by saying she DID donate but she doesn't have to go announce it to everyone, and she loves and wants to protect her country.

寄付したぞー！と、大声で言う必要性を感じないので言わないだけです。私達アーティストも自分たちの国を愛する気持ち、守りたい気持ちは皆様と同じです。RT @rococchan: 日本のアーティストはなんで寄付しないの？？母国なのに。。海外アーティストを見習って欲しい。

And her insane retweeting the last 4 days was REALLY helpful, since they were all important tweets regarding how to get food/stay safe/and news information.

Some people are just so stupid it's ridiculous.

Here is the link to the tweet of ayu-chan! and the Chinese TV
