"Citizens secretly aid Burma victims; Deliver supplies to hard-hit areas" by Washington Post | June 22, 2008
RANGOON, Burma - Seven weeks after huge swaths of Burma were savaged by a cyclone and tidal wave, a new and remarkable citizen movement is delivering emergency supplies to survivors neglected by the military government's haphazard relief effort.
Sigh. Push, push, push the agenda. Please see: Burma Not So Bad
The scores of ad hoc Burmese groups, many of them based in Rangoon, the country's largest city, are not overtly political. But they are reviving a kind of social activism largely repressed by Burma's successive military rulers.
Defying roadblocks and bureaucratic obstruction, volunteers have reached devastated villages in many parts of the Irrawaddy Delta, dropping off food, drinking water, and other essentials and bringing back photos that contradict claims in the state media that life is returning to normal.
Some members of the groups say they hope to keep working together when the cyclone damage is finally repaired and to turn toward other activities that carry shades of political activism in this tightly controlled state.
With residents' frustration over the official relief effort mounting, pledges of support and donations to the National League for Democracy, the main opposition group in Burma, also called Myanmar, have doubled since the cyclone....
And we KNOW WHO BACKS THEM, don't we?
No wonder Burma didn't want U.S. help!!
Trying to overthrow their regime!!!!
The storm, which came ashore on the night of May 2-3, killed an estimated 134,000 people and created severe hardship for 2.4 million more. The country's deeply xenophobic junta refused many offers of foreign help....
Gee, I can't imagine why!!!
As for xenophobes: The Zionist Pushers of Hate
The informal organizations are often based on occupation. Artists, doctors, students, and gem dealers have formed separate groups. In other cases, the groups are made up of friends....
Spies and agents can take ANY COVER!!
