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.

j'ai séjourné à deux reprises au Myanmar et ai admiré la profonde gentillesse de son peuple et la beauté de leur civilisation . Il faut tout faire pour sauver les rescapés et surtout ouvrir rapidement les frontières pour faciliter les secours.Michel Bonnabry

People are not getting help at all, thanks to our great military junta. Nothing we can do but pray for those poor souls effected by the disaster and also for all the citizens to get through this difficult time that one egg is at almost USD1 while common wages earned by people is less than USD10/month.

Makoro Hiraiwa My message: I can't tell the people of Myanmar how sorry I am about more than 100,000 people in Myanmar have been killed, and 1.5 million people "severely affected" or left homeless due to influence of cyclone Nargis. I sincerely pray that suffering people will soon recover their orginal life.
