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.

Dear Sir/Madam, I am deeply concerned about the news that your government will not allow US or French aid ships to land, and is making it difficult for humanitarian agencies to enter their staff in your country. I am also horrified that government officials are evicting people from emergency shelters, when they have nothing to go back to. Please change your policies and do everything possible to save the lives of your people. Yours sincerely, Lorien Vecellio |

I respectfully urge all those in a position to help to do so with utmost speed and determination. In such times as these the only thing that matters is saving lives. We only want to help and then we will be gone.

It is a shame to let people without aid these terrible moments in order only to protect miserable political views. Pain needs consolation and helpful and good willing people! Please, help the aid reach all these innocent human beens striken by the cyclone.

The people of Myanmar urgently needed humanitarian relief, and the world is waiting at your borders -- poised and ready to help. We respectfully urge you to fast track the paperwork for humanitarian aid workers who are eagerly awaiting the opportunity to help the people of Myanmar, and do everything possible to work with the UN and international aid organizations to provide immediate relief to your people.
