Decisions in Paradise Paper, Part 1
In the South Pacific there was once a paradise called Island of Kava (UOP, 5/31/2010). Due to natural disasters and environmental disasters, the paradise is no more. The natural disasters are tidal waves and tsunami, typhoons and hurricanes, tornadoes, floods, volcanic eruptions, and earthquakes (UOP, 5/31/2010).

We were ready to send more help. Sarah (a representative from Martin Services) and Nik (a Wal-Mart Stores Inc. representative) joined Alex. Martin Services would take care of the clean-up, repairs, as well as youth centers. Wal-Mart Stores inc. would provide funds as well as supplies. As soon a Sarah arrived in Kava, she organized the location chosen for...
