Indonesia to end search for earthquake, tsunami
victims as death toll soars over 2000
 PALU, Indonesia -- Indonesia's disaster agency said Wednesday
that it only needs tents, water treatment units, generators and
transport from other countries as it tries to take complete control
of the response to the Sulawesi earthquake and tsunami that
killed more than 2,000 people. The agency's spokesman, Sutopo
Purwo Nugroho, said the death toll from the double disaster on
Sept. 28 has risen to 2,045, with most of the fatalities in the
coastal city of Palu. More than 80,000 people are living in
temporary shelters or otherwise displaced, he said.
 Possibly 5,000 people are buried in obliterated parts of the city
and its surroundings where the force of the quake liquefied the
soil and sucked houses into the earth. Miles of coastline were
trashed by the tsunami and Nugroho said its waves were up to 36
feet high. A tsunami warning after the quake had predicted
waves of 1.5 to 10 feet.
 Nugroho reiterated at a news conference in Jakarta,
Indonesia's capital, that the official search for bodies will
end Thursday with mass prayers in hard-hit neighborhoods
but volunteers and family members can continue searching.
 Memorials will be constructed in hard-hit neighborhoods
such as Balaroa and Petobo, he said.
 "People are traumatized. They don't want to go back" to
those places, Nugroho said. "They asked to be relocated to
another place and a house made for them."
 After a rare appeal for international assistance, Indonesia is now
trying to limit foreign involvement in the disaster relief effort.
Nugroho said there's no need for international aid other than the
four priorities identified by Indonesia.
 The disaster agency has circulated guidelines that say foreign aid
workers can be in the field only with Indonesian partners.
Groups that sent foreign personnel to the disaster zone are
"advised to retrieve their personnel immediately," according to
those guidelines.
 International aid groups with Indonesian sister organizations say
foreign personnel they want to send are being vetted by the
government in a process that takes several days or longer.
 In a belated response to the influx of international journalists,
Nugroho said foreign reporters need to apply for a journalist visa
to report on the disaster. It's likely the majority have already left.
