THE PLIGHT OF THE BURMESE PEOPLE
As if the Burmese people hadn't enough to contend with by being brutally ruled by a Junta of military criminals, they now have to contend with one of the worst natural disasters ever to occur in the region. With a bit of luck this will spell the end of the general's rule as it appears that they don't have the resources to deal with the disaster. Hopefully, the world's aid agencies will get in there as quickly as possibe and do what they can to alleviate the suffering on the ground.

Footage from a video of the damage caused in the Irrawaddy Delta region of Myanmar (formerly called Burma) by Cyclone Nargis which devastated the coastal region on 2-3 May.134,000 people are estimated to have been killed and the United Nations estimates that 2.5 million people have been affected by what is being called the country's greatest disaster in living memory.The tightly controlled local media have been showing only positive images of generals distributing food aid to grateful refugees, but videos such as this were being sold illegally on every street corner in Yangon days after the disaster. The videos sold like hotcakes to people in the cities and further regions hungry for real information.
