What unites poeple, regardless of their age, race, religion or creed, is a tragedy that claims an insurmountable loss of life and, in its wake, leaves the living forever scarred. And what happened on that fateful day - Dev 26 last year - would be echoed through time, for such a tragedy will not be easily forgotten. Even now, months since the Tsunami tragedy, the outpouring of help and support continues.

Black Eyed Peas, Backstreet Boys, Boyz II Men, Lauryn Hill and Wyclef Jean are teaming up to raise money for tsunami victims by throwing a concert in a nation within the devastated region: Malaysia on March 18 in Stadium Putra, Bukit Jalil,Kuala Lumpur. Under the banner Force of Nature for Tsunami Aid, the concert will also present Hong Kong stars such as rocker Nicholas Tse, singer/actress Yumiko Cheng, and international celebrity Jackie Chan. The slate of Malaysian acts set to appear includes veteran singer Sheila Majid, Dayang Nurfaizah, Anuar Zain and vocal group Innuendo.

Organizers hope that the Force of Nature concert reminds people not only that the relief effort is far from over, but also that a bigger power than the tsunami could be the human spirit.
