Help the Burmese People Receive Aid in Cyclone Aftermath
Target: Embassies of Myanmar, in Washington DC and internationalSponsored by: Care2
In the aftermath of cyclone Nargis, it is believed that up to 100,000 people in Myanmar have been killed, and at least 1.5 million people "severely affected" or left homeless. The United Nations has landed an aid plane in Myanmar, bringing food and equipment to some of the country's population, but the military junta continues to resist offers of large-scale help by blocking most international aid.
At Care2, we are committed to empowering regular people to make a difference around the world. That's the power of a caring community. But when the amazing humanitarian organizations that Care2 partners with are struggling to reach the Burmese people because the corrupt and brutal military junta fails to process visas and open its borders for aid, it makes us mad.
Sign our petition to the Embassies of Myanmar, and urge them to do everything possible to enable the UN and humanitarian aid groups to reach the people of Myanmar immediately.

As the leaders of the Myanmar people, you will gain your people's respect and that of the UN by welcoming the aid supplies and organizations/people who care about the Myanmar people. As global people, we all need to give and receive help -- that's what makes being alive so wonderful!

Many people in Canada hope that aid for the people of Myanmar will reach those most in need with the help of the UN and non-governmental relief agencies. We urge the government of Myanmar to facilitate this aid in a timely manner.

Hey government of Myanmar, I know its hard for you to accept help or sympathy from all the countries because you feel that its your own country and you can help the affected citizens yourself and that you don't want or need pity or sympathy,that's human nature and i understand. However,it is time to face up to reality and im sure even you now know that now is not the time to reject help and aid from the humanitarian air workers and organisations,because right now the fact is that your people NEED URGENT AID,HELP AND TREATMENT FROM THE SIDE EFFECTS OF THE CYCLONE. THEY ARE SUFFERING FROM SEVERE FOOD SHORTAGES,OVERCROWDING,UNHEALTHY LIVING CONDITIONS,SEVERE WATER SHORTAGES AND DISEASES THAT ARE KILLING THEM BY THE THOUSANDS OR EVEN HUNDRED THOUSANDS. FYI,THE ABOVE SIDE EFFECTS THAT I JUST NAMED HAPPEN TO BE WHAT THE PEOPLE OF THE 1ST AND 2ND WORLD WARS SUFFERED FROM. SURELY YOU DO NOT WANT HISTORY TO REPEAT ITSELF,DO YOU? Surely you do not want the people of Myanmar to lose their confidence in the government they trusted so very much,do you? So please,for the sake of the future of your country,allow help from the humanitarian aid workers and organisations. Thank You.

In this circumstances any government must immediately try to safe the people's lives and get the help to all survival. The world is aware of such need and urgency. Any government who do not care about it's people, should not exist at this era.
