It has sacrificed a lot of humanitarian ideals in being greedy and seeking out money ultimately and while it was able to come up with tremendous amount of money for the causes of compensating for the losses in wealth of the tragedies, it fails to come up with a much less sum of money needed to renovate water systems in remote areas of the world where water can't be provided, to fight for the universal diseases like TB and AIDS and much more.

인류에 서로 이바지하는 세계가 되길 작가는 기대해봅니다.
