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.

Is it not obvious? We would hope for the assistance of others in crisis, the least we could do is begin to learn how improving the lives and livelyhoods of others helps us, in more ways than one. A man/woman who cannot empathis in action, could never be truely called great. And a nation that turns it's back on human suffering is no nation at all.

This is not the time to play king of the castle. Your people need help, and we're all waiting to give it. Let us in or be responsible for their suffering and death.

I believe it is your primary occupation to help protect the people from harm. Outside workers are there not to harm the country in any way, but only to help your devastated people. Please let them in.

In the modern and globalized world that we live in today, a nation simply cannot refuse help from the "ROTW" (Rest of the World). It's irresponsible and childish.
