SMALL BUSINESS TSUNAMI WIPEOUT

TRAGEDY TO DESTROY MUM AND DAD BUSINESSES

NO INSURANCE FOR WATERSIDE BUSINESSES

The tragedy unfolding in Queensland will have consequences well into the future if not addressed from the start, instead of an often overlooked afterthough that will add misery to thousands left with the rubble to clear out of their small businesses.

If you think insurance companies will pick up the bill you are sadly mistaken!

The National and Queensland governments need to address this issue first up this time as most businesses along Brisbanes waterways are uninsurable for flood damage.

This means most business people will lose just about everything for which they have worked and established.

Hopefully the nation will see the need and compensate these people that run the restaurants and other retail outlets, the tech based companies whose electrical equipment that will be useless...the losses are endless.

Unlike the bushfire recent disaster, this holocaust was not created by lunatic pyromaniacs, but by the collusion of a horrific natural event that has been added to by the Queensland government's refusul to build a few more dams and the deliberate, but necessary, release through their infrastructure.

We all pray for the city's speedy recovery and the care of its citizens...I know we all do what we can to help.
