Anyway, looking for the news on Pakistan, one finds mention of the recent flooding of villages along the Sutlej river, but nothing about Bajur.
And I came across this gem of a paragraph in an article called 'High-tech Survey Tool offers New Hope to Disaster-Hit Communities':
The sight of humanitarian assessment teams moving through calamity-hit villages and punching data into small, hand-held computers as they interview villagers may soon become routine in Pakistan.
All I can say is: I sincerely hope not!

Yes, and it just goes to show the priorities in the allocation of aid funds. We must get PDAs for our development sector yuppies. It speeds up the collation of data don't you know?
