Myanmar devastation
Pic 16: Residents in Yangon wait in line to buy cooking oil. Many businesses are exploiting shortages caused by damaged roads and ports, charging exorbitant prices for gasoline, building supplies and other items in high demand.
Pic 15: Refugees live in a temple for the shelter in Laputta town, Irrawaddy Delta.
Pic 14: A boy feeds a banana to his younger brother at a temple being used a temporary shelter on the outskirts of Yangon.
Pic 13: Children survivors of Cyclone Nargis cover their heads from the rain with empty aluminium plates as they wait for food at a private donation center in Myanmar.
Pic 12: A young survivor waits for relief supplies by a makeshift house in Bogalay
Pic 11: An elderly woman comes out of her destroyed house in the cyclone-hit Dedaye township, south of Yangon.
Pic 10: Families sort through their destroyed houses in Konegyangone township, looking for possessions.
Pic 9: Children beg for food from passengers in a passing car Thursday in Bogalay. More than a million survivors of the cyclone are battling to stave off hunger and disease.
Pic 8: In this picture made available Friday, injured villagers mill around their destroyed homes Saturday in Bogalay township, one of the regions of Myanmar hardest hit by Cyclone Nargis.
Pic7: Rice farmer U Maung Saw, 58, is rebuilding his own home from scratch and trying to salvage hundreds of pounds of unmilled rice soaked by the cyclone, before it rots. He says his village, Kyaiktaw, has received no aid at all. “The government never gives us anything,” he says. “We’re not angry. We’re not surprised. We don’t expect anything else.”
Pic6: A woman comforts her child at a relief center after fleeing Kyauktan, about 40 miles southeast of Yangon, Myanmar's main city. Tropical Cyclone Nargis, which slammed into the rice-growing Irrawaddy River delta region in the country's south, may be followed by another storm: A tropical depression is building over the Andaman Sea as survivors of the first storm await aid. The government raised the official toll to 29,000.
Pic5: Young monks wash themselves in the river in Pyapon, a town in the Irrawaddy delta of Myanmar on Sunday. A a week after Nargis hit, few areas have seen proper relief efforts, with the government handing out meager rice rations while preventing foreign aid workers from entering.
Pic4: Villagers rest on the outskirts of hard-hit Bogalay town in southern Myanmar. A Red Cross boat carrying relief supplies sank, and aid groups warned that up to 1.5 million people are in desperate need of clean water and sanitation.
Pic3: Myanmar villagers receive treatment from a local non-governmental organization at the Paw Taw Mu pagoda on the outskirts of Bogalay town in the country's devasted southern delta region Sunday. The government has been missing in action.
Pic2: A boy carries away material scavenged from the debris of cyclone-ravaged houses in Kyauktan, about 40 miles southeast of Myanmar's main city, Yangon, also known as Rangoon.
Pic1: A fallen tree trunk rests near a cluster of buildings on the outskirts of Yangon in southern Myanmar. Some villagers criticized the military regime. “They are very selfish,” said a man in Kyaiktaw. “They don’t care what happens to others. They only think about themselves.”ASEAN meets in Singapore on Myanmar disaster
ASEAN meets in Singapore on Myanmar disaster
Posted: 19 May 2008 0823 hrs
SINGAPORE - Southeast Asian foreign ministers meet here Monday to discuss how to help Myanmar recover from a devastating cyclone, amid criticism their regional bloc has been too slow to respond.
The meeting comes more than two weeks after Cyclone Nargis left more than 133,000 dead or missing and up to 2.5 million survivors needing urgent aid in Myanmar, whose military rulers have spurned offers of a huge foreign relief operation.
Fast Facts Singapore, which currently chairs the 10-member Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN), called the talks to discuss the humanitarian situation in its impoverished member "and consider how best to assist Myanmar in its relief and recovery efforts." In contrast with more aggressive calls by Western nations for Myanmar to open its doors to foreign aid workers, ASEAN is likely to attempt a compromise to speed up aid delivery and spur reconstruction, diplomatic sources said. But under ASEAN's consensus doctrine, any such plan must have the approval of Myanmar, whose foreign minister Nyan Win is attending.
Thai Foreign Minister Noppadon Pattama has said he and his fellow ministers would discuss forming a mechanism within ASEAN to help member nations suffering from similar disasters in the future. Thailand will also air its proposal for ASEAN to work with the United Nations to help Myanmar recover from the disaster, Noppadon said. But critics wonder whether the Singapore talks would make any difference if Myanmar, whose human rights record has become a black mark for the entire organisation, remains reluctant to accept substantial foreign help.
ASEAN member states, including Singapore and Thailand, have individually sent aid to Myanmar, whose ruling generals have accepted relief goods but refused to allow foreign relief workers to distribute them. Despite impassioned appeals by the United Nations, the United States, France, Britain and humanitarian groups for Myanmar to ease restrictions, ASEAN's leaders have yet to make their voices heard.
Debbie Stothard, an activist with the anti-Myanmar group Alternative ASEAN Network on Burma, noted that the cyclone is the biggest natural disaster to hit the region since the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami, and called ASEAN's reaction "deeply disappointing." "It's still not too late for ASEAN to redeem the situation. But they need to show some political leadership and ensure that the Burmese regime behaves in a more sensible manner," she told AFP, using Myanmar's former name. "ASEAN has a lot to make up for, they need to show that they have some spine here." Hannah Ruth Chia, an analyst with the International Centre for Political Violence and Terrorism Research at the S. Rajaratnam School of International Studies in Singapore, said Monday's meeting must address the urgency of aid reaching the victims. "But with ASEAN having failed to exact significant change in Myanmar over the past 11 years since it became a member, what can such a meeting achieve except to hector the Myanmar foreign minister in private?" she wrote in a commentary.
Chia said that with Western powers considering forced intervention to deliver aid, ASEAN risked being viewed as ineffective if it refused to take a stand. Despite its non-interference policy, ASEAN "must show that it is willing to make subtle exceptions when a government refuses to help its own people," she wrote. "If ASEAN is seen to be unwilling to act one way or another, it could find itself being undermined by external powers should these powers decide to go ahead with forced intervention regardless of ASEAN's position on the matter," Chia said. - AFP/ir
