Myanmar update
Posted on May 8th, 2008 by Derek
Apparently there are over 100,000 dead and the Myanmar junta is keeping US aid workers from the people. When that part of the world gets back on its feet, I wonder how many people in charge are going to be able to keep their lives after condemning so many others to death.
I am saddened that I live in a world where politics is more important than helping people. It was apparently that way in New Orleans after Katrina, Iran after the earthquake and now in Myanmar after the cyclone.
Just sad, but it makes me wonder how Phuket, Thailand was able to bounce back as well as they did so soon after the tsunami.
