Very sad indeed. International help is always very useful, to say the least, in any natural disaster of this scale. The world become very united and warm when this kind of disaster strikes

Thanks A Million ! Burmese/Myanmar people are grateful, as their own government could care very little on people's welfare.

Don't just take Nyein Chan's or anybody's words, if you watch the world news, reporting from the disaster areas,(thanks to the reporters who risk their lives in reporting them), where the desperate victims are speaking out for themselves, you will understand the real situation on the ground. These are the…

The first part of this tragic event was natural disaster.(Body count is impossible since tens of thousands of victims were simply washed away into the sea.)

The second part of the tregady, which is extremely slow and painful is PURELY MAN-MADE. Due to the military leaders' ineptitude and blatent disregard…

But now it only costs 2000 kyats in Nyaung Bin Lay market. Without international monitoring system in place, these things are bound…

It is inhumane for the rest of us to watch the human tragedy unfold in Burma and do absolutely nothing. A few token cargo deliveries are not enough especially when we do not know where the supplies are going. It can no longer be an excuse by saying "The military…

To start doing airdrops, do we need UN's agreement? Because if we have to wait for the UN's agreement it will be blocked again by CHINA and Russia. Burmese military has about 30-40 small helicopters and 10 of them are not working. Only 6 of them are being used for…

If the International Community do not stand unanimously behind the UNSC to take EVERY POSSIBLE ACTION to help those victims, Myanmar Junta will let millions die of diseases,starvation and exposure. THE JUNTA DON'T CARE WORDS.
