Christiano Ronaldo to visit Aceh


Manchester United star Cristiano Ronaldo is to visit Indonesia's tsunami-hit province of Aceh this weekend to raise funds for victims of the massive December disaster, an event organizer said Thursday.

The 20-year-old Portuguese international will arrive on Saturday and fly to Aceh the same day where he will be reunited with tsunami child survivor Martunis, an organiser of Ronaldo's trip told AFP.

Martunis triggered an outpouring of aid from Portuguese football officials and players after he was pictured wearing Portugal's national colours after surviving the December 26 disaster.
