The Embassy said the Indonesian refugees in Sanjo refuge camp need blankets, heaters, food and drinks, tissues, and information about the exact location of evacuation and the post-tsunami syndrome might have affected the Indonesians tsunami victims.
However, the refugees are in good condition, while the food supplies are mostly for the elders and children.
Water is limited, while the existing emergency toilet booths are in very bad condition.
Previously, two embassy teams have arrived at the Sanjo Junior High School of Sendai, Japan early on Sunday morning (March 13) to help the Indonesians affected by the tsunami which hit the region on Friday (March 11).
The damaged infrastructure in Sendai make it difficult for the logistic supplies to reach the city.
There are 89 Indonesians (68 adults and 21 children) at the refuge camps and at the Sanjo Junior High School.
According to the Embassy, the Indonesians taking refuge in Sanjo were in good condition.
The logistic supply brought by the Indonesian team is only enough for two days, while the region also lacked clean water.
There is electricity in some parts of Sendai only, and none in the Sanjo refuge camp.
There are 28 Indonesians in the refuge camp in Sanjo Junior High School complex of Aoba-ku, Sendai-shi, in which a contact person is Fatwa Ramdani (+81 80-3337-5369) or email fatwaramdani@gmail.com.

Seven Indonesians who are in Kunimi Elementary School would be moved to Sanjo Juniro High School.
There are other 15 Indonesians contacted by phone but their locations are still unknown.
