Myanmar

This whole thing with Myanmar not allowing aid into the country, but not doing anything themselves if making me tear my hair out!

Read this article though:

Maybe we should be air-dropping supplies to the monks instead. At least they're doing what they can, even though it might mean more government sanctioned beat-downs.:grumpy:

Stupid stupid stupid

i know, we have been discussing this in one of my classes.



how sad is it that in this day and age a government won't provide for its people??

its not like we have any political objectives here, we simply want to HELP the innocent people. oh and whats worse is that if they don't get any rain this year-no rice, so then they will REALLY need help.

stupid government. I can't even think WHY they are preventing food aid!

just wait, the people will riot and it will be burma again.
