By Mark Sweney

The BBC World Service is to launch a series of Burmese-language emergency broadcasts in the wake of the destruction of cyclone Nargis.

The broadcasts will be funded by a £50,000 donation from Vodafone.

The "lifeline" broadcasts, which will be made by the BBC Burmese Service from June 2, will provide information on disease prevention and health with advice on issues such as sanitation and food supplies.

The £50,000 donation, from the Vodafone Group Foundation charity, will enable a series of emergency broadcasts of six programmes of five minutes duration for six days each week.

The donation has been made to the BBC World Service Trust, the BBC's international development charity, which will develop the broadcasts in partnership with BBC Burmese Service.

"As the tragic news from Burma unfolds it has become apparent that traditional aid is not getting through," said Stephen King, director at BBC World Service Trust.

"The power of the media offers a vital way of getting people access to information to help them survive and start to recover."

The emergency programming will augment existing news and current affairs shows already broadcast in Burma and will reach an estimated seven million listeners.

"The provision of accurate, timely information is a disaster response in its own right and this can help," said Andrew Dunnett, director at Vodafone Group Foundation.

He says EU diplomats are pushing the United Nations to take action to convince Myanmar to open its doors to aid workers.Solana says the "most important objective" now for international donors ― including the EU ― is to get aid into the Asian country devastated by a deadly cyclone.

'Clock Ticking' As Burma Aid Trickles In

The first planeload of British aid is to arrive in Burma today more than a week after the Cyclone Nargis left swathes of the country underwater.

A consignment of bales of plastic sheeting were sent last night from a government store in Dubai - the first of four such flights as part of a £5 million UK aid package.

It also emerged that the Queen had made a "significant" personal donation to the relief effort.

CSW CALLS FOR INTERNATIONAL ACTION IN BURMA CRISIS

BURMA: CSW CALLS FOR INTERNATIONAL ACTION IN BURMA CRISIS

Christian Solidarity Worldwide (CSW) today called for immediate, significant and effective action to address the deteriorating humanitarian and political emergency in Burma. CSW warned that failure on the part of the regime to facilitate international relief efforts could result in the international community being left with no option but to act without the regime’s permission. CSW also called on the UN Security Council to refer a case against Burma’s military regime to the International Criminal Court.

While CSW welcomes the news that a US plane carrying aid has been permitted to land in Burma today, it is vital that international aid workers be permitted to access the disaster regions without further delay in order to ensure aid reaches the victims of Cyclone Nargis. Nine days after the cyclone struck, visas continue to be denied to aid workers.

CSW is concerned after receiving clear evidence that in addition to the regime failing to respond to the crisis and blocking international access, it is actively obstructing the delivery of aid. There are reports that Burmese people attempting to distribute aid have been attacked by the regime’s militia, the Union Solidarity Development Association (USDA) and Swan Ah Shin. CSW believes these actions provide further evidence amounting to charges of crimes against humanity already levelled against the regime, and calls for the implementation of UN Security Council resolution 1674, known as the “Responsibility to Protect”.

CSW has also received reports from sources in some parts of Burma that people have overwhelmingly rejected the regime’s proposed constitution in a referendum held on Saturday 10 May. Initial reports from some villages in Chin and Kachin states indicate a strong majority of votes cast against the constitution, and reports from other parts of the country show clear rigging by the regime. CSW has strongly condemned the referendum process as a “sham” and urges the international community to unite in rejecting the result if the regime declares victory. Voting in the cyclone-affected areas will take place on 24 May.

CSW’s Chief Executive Mervyn Thomas said: “As the death toll mounts daily, further delays in bringing aid and aid workers into Burma simply mean more deaths through starvation and disease. The bodies are piling up, and shocking photographs smuggled out of the country show whole communities wiped out. The regime is now guilty not only of neglect but of deliberate obstruction of emergency relief efforts. This adds to the list of charges of crimes against humanity which has mounted against this brutal regime over the years. It is time now to bring help to the Burmese people and to bring the Generals to justice.”

France Backtracking on Intervention

France appeared to be backing down Sunday on claims it would send a naval vessel carrying 1,500 tonnes of aid to Burma “without waiting any further” on permission from the Burmese authorities, after a French foreign ministry source said France would not send the ship into Burmese waters, according to a Reuters report on Sunday.

French Foreign Minister Bernard Kouchner had on Saturday told reporters that France had decided to go it alone and deliver relief supplies to victims of Cyclone Nargis in the Irrawaddy delta after Burma’s ruling junta failed to respond to calls for international aid and relief teams to be allowed access to survivors.

Thai envoy to seek access for western aid groups

By Supalak Ganjanakhundee,Piyanart SrivaloThe NationPublished on May 10, 2008
Generals now 'too busy' to meet Samak
Prime Minister Samak Sundaravej will dispatch a special envoy to Burma today to attempt to convince the junta leaders to permit foreign relief teams, notably those from the United States and the United Kingdom, to help those hit by Cyclone Nargis.
The US and UK ambassadors to Thailand have asked the premier to assist.
Samak said earlier that he had contacted Burmese generals in the capital of Naypyitaw and would fly to see them tomorrow, but subsequent talks suggested that the junta's leaders were "too busy" to welcome the Thai leader.

Lt-General Niphat Thonglek, director of the Supreme Command's Boundary Affairs Department, and Thai Ambassador to Burma Bansarn Bunnag will instead carry a letter from Samak to Burma's Prime Minister Thein Sein.
The letter conveys condolence messages and concerns from Thai leaders to Burmese leaders and people, Niphat said. However, he declined to reveal further details, such as whether the letter also asked for permission from the junta for Western relief teams to enter the country.
The British ambassador to Thailand, Quinton Quayle, met Samak yesterday to discuss the possibility that Thailand could use its influence to convince Burmese leaders to open the country to Western assistance.

"In order for the international community to assist the Burmese people at this time of pressing need, the Burmese government should provide immediate visas to allow rapid access for specialists and aid to reach those affected as soon as possible," Quayle said.
The UK through its Department for International Development has made an initial pledge of up to ฃ5 million (Bt311 million) - the largest single contribution by any one country so far - to go to United Nations, Red Cross and NGO partners on the ground to help meet immediate needs.
The Burmese junta asked for humanitarian assistance to help millions of affected people after Cyclone Nargis hit the country last week, but has refused to grant visas for foreign relief teams.
US Ambassador to Thailand Eric John met Samak on Thursday to ask the premier to help facilitate Burmese visas for the US teams who are now waiting in Bangkok.

More than 65,000 people are dead or missing in the region, with fears the death toll will top 100,000. More than 1 million people have been left homeless.

The UN has blasted the military government, saying its refusal to let in foreign aid workers to help victims of a devastating cyclone was "unprecedented" in the history of humanitarian work.
The UN's World Food Programme, however, said it was able to begin delivery of food and plastic tarpaulins to cyclone-devastated areas in the Irrawaddy delta.

Dear friends

I received a letter from Myanmar Embassy London today and couldn’t believe my eyes.

There is an invite for a boat trip in the Thames River by Myanmar Association (UK).
Myanmar Association (UK) is organized and control by Myanmar Embassy in the UK.

Ticket is 10 GBP which include Mon-Hinn-Ger lunch (free) and karaoke entertainment by singer Tin Zar Maw. It said, don’t forget to can bring your favourite karaoke if you want to sing along.
By the way, I’ve heard that Ambassador U Nay Win is a keen karaoke singer.

How these people can enjoy singing in the River Cruise boat trip?

It should rather be in a boat at Bo-ga-lay and help the people, if they really like the boat.

Also, you have might already seen this news.
I forward this news just in case.

Regards.

Dr. win Naing

Cyclone Nargis


Cyclone Nargis was a tropical cyclone. It was the first in the Indian Ocean in 2008. It was classified as a Category 4 storm. It made landfall (went on land) in Myanmar in April and May 2008. It s possibly one of the worst storms to have hit the country. Officially at least 22,980+ people have died in the storm, with more 41,000 still not found (missing)[1][2]; the figures however are still rising, and 80,000 were reported dead in just one town. After the disaster, the Burmese government has called for help in dealing with the situation.[3] Some people say the government is having problems coping with the situation.[4]

More recent reports from the government say that about 80,000 have died. Some non-governmental organizations estimate that the final number will be well over 100,000.[5] Certain aid workers that came into the country estimate that 2 to 3 million are homeless, in the worst disaster in Burma’s history. They say it is comparable with the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami. Andrew Kirkwood, country director of a British charity organisation said:"We're looking at 50,000 dead and millions of homeless. I'd characterise it as unprecedented in the history of Burma. [It has had about the same effect as] the tsunami on individual countries. There might well be more dead than the tsunami caused in Sri Lanka."[6]

Because of the storm, the government has declared five regions - Yangon, Ayeyarwady, Bago Divisions, Mon and Kayin States currently as disaster areas. Thousands of buildings were destroyed; in the town of Labutta, located in the Ayeyarwady Division, state television reported that 75% of buildings had collapsed and 20% had their roofs ripped off.[7] It is believed that the cyclone is the deadliest tropical cyclone in the world since Hurricane Mitch in 1998, which killed about 18,000 people. At least 10,000 people have been reported to have died in the delta town of Bogale [8].

A diplomat in the city of Yangon spoke to the Reuters news agency, giving them a description of the scene. He said that the area around him looked like a 'war zone' as a result of the cyclone. Burst sewage mains caused the landscape to flood with waste, ruining the rice crop. [9] An official from the United Nations also talked about the situation, at the time of the event. "It's a bad situation. Almost all the houses are smashed. People are in a terrible situation," he said. Another UN representative also talked about the incident. He reported that "The Irrawaddy delta was hit extremely hard not only because of the wind and rain but because of the storm surge." The Daily Telegraph, a UK newspaper, reported that food prices in Myanmar could be affected by this disaster.[10][11]

Burma's victims need help right now

Bo Kyi (DVB)—

The secretary-general of the United Nations and the leaders and foreign ministers of many nations including the United States, China, France and the UK have all urged the Burmese regime to allow international aid into the country to help the victims of Cyclone Nargis.
The situation in Burma is becoming increasingly desperate. Most peripheral towns south of Rangoon, like Kungyan Gone, Kawhmu, Kayan and Thongwa, are still heavily flooded and only accessible by helicopter.

Tens of thousands of families are still stranded in their farm houses, surrounded by sea water. No help has reached the area yet, and the death toll in the area is likely to continue rising.
Yesterday, donations of rice from merchants in Rangoon began to arrive in Bogolay, one of the hardest-hit towns in Irrawaddy division.

Donors reported tragic scenes of families searching for loved ones amongst the corpses. No-one has the capacity to deal with the thousands of dead bodies scattered everywhere, increasing the risk of disease.

About 25,000 injured and traumatized survivors from Latputta and Mawgyun townships in Irrawaddy division were picked up by boats and carried to safety in Myaungmya. The regime ordered local people to provide food.

But the locals have quickly run out of rice and medicines, clean water, food and clothing are all urgently required, with 5,000 more survivors expected to arrive in Myaungmya tomorrow.
In Rangoon division, people in Hlaing Tharyar, North and South Dagon, Shwepyithar, Dawpone, Dala, Seikkyi Kanaungdo, Thanlyin and Kyauktan areas were among the hardest hit.

Relief provided by the regime in these areas has been inadequate, angering local people. Local authorities have assumed complete control over aid distribution in the area, with the Union Solidarity and Development Association giving some aid to local people merely as a token gesture.

In Rangoon itself, suburban areas of the city are now becoming accessible, but electricity and water supplies are still cut off. Many people have to rely on lakes on the outskirts of the city for water. In downtown Rangoon, state-sponsored agencies like the USDA are selling construction materials such as zinc roofing and nails rather than giving it away. Rangoon is the only place in the storm-hit area where clean drinking water is available, but at vastly inflated prices.
In spite of this desperate situation, the Burmese regime has been slow to accept international aid and still refuses international expertise.

The regime’s refusal to issue visas to relief experts is unprecedented, according to the UN. The country is technologically poor, and the regime does not have the expertise or the capacity to effectively manage the aid operation. The regime can ill-afford to refuse this help.

If the international community - particularly the United States, the UK, France and China - cannot get access to Burma to help victims, even more people will lose their lives.
The authorities have stated that they are only willing to accept money and aid. This allows them to maintain their absolute grip on power and, through their propaganda machine inside Burma, the illusion that they are the benevolent ones who are providing aid to the people.
The regime is still determined to go ahead with the referendum on its draft state constitution. Its obsession with legitimacy and refusal to postpone the referendum nationwide in favour of focusing efforts on delivering aid is costing Burmese lives.

Now is the time to go into Burma and deliver the help that is so desperately needed, with or without the regime’s permission.

The United Nations must give an ultimatum to Than Shwe's regime, calling for permission to enter the country within the next 48 hours. If Than Shwe's regime ignores the ultimatum, the UN should enter Burma without his permission.

Burma does not belong to Than Shwe and his army. Burma belongs to 57 million people. Now nearly two million people are suffering and need water, shelter, medicine and food immediately.
The people of Burma cannot wait any longer; too many will die.

An letter to the ASEAN Secretary-General

Dr. Surin Pitsuwan
ASEAN Secretary-General
The ASEAN Secretariat
70A, Jalan Sisingamangaraja
Jakarta 12110
Indonesia

Dear Mr. Secretary-General,

ASEAN must act for Burma Cyclone On 2 May 2008, Cyclone Nargis ripped across the coast of Myanmar (Burma) bringing massive devastations to hundreds of thousands of people. The scale of the devastation is so immense that a huge relief and reconstruction efforts will be needed as soon as possible. There are a lot of aid teams waiting outside to go in with supplies but are being blocked by the Government of Myanmar.

With these concerns, we, the Burmese People, strongly urge ASEAN to act as a proxy-role to divert resources and aid from the United States, EU and Middle Eastern countries to Myanmar (Burma) for effective aid and breaking the aid deadlock and mistrust.

Furthermore, we, the Burmese People around the world, would like to urge ASEAN to organize to send humanitarian assistance teams from governments of ASEAN countries, China, Japan, India and Australia to Burma as an urgent matter.

Sincerely,
Concerned Burmese People for Cyclone victims
