Description: CYCLONE NARGIS AND ITS AFTERMATH - HEADLINES: ARTICLE: "Donate publications to broaden the horizons of storm victims" by Hnin Oo Khin: "...It is very encouraging to note that plans are well under way to fulfil the basic needs of the victims and to improve the living conditions of the entire local people by providing them with wooden houses then with brick ones. The benevolent attitude of the government and great generosity of the well-wishers have completely won the admiration of those who have witnessed or learnt the generous deeds. Now, local residents in the storm-hit areas have been provided with materials to a certain degree. So, it has yet to improve their mental conditions. Man is made up of body and mind. It is required to improve their physical and mental conditions. Naungyo Battle made history of Myanmar owing to daring spirit of Bayintnaung and sacrificing attitude of his troops. Scholars therefore said, ?Never give up whatever it is”. Mental caliber is a must for human beings..."

The government?s taking measures to ensure smooth transition to democracy without disruptions is neither deprivation of democracy rights nor suppression. To be frank, subversive elements inside and outside the nation are lackeys of the neo-colonialists. In serving the interests of neo-colonialists, they are never worried that their motherland and the people may come under alien subjugation, and the whole nation may be ablaze with conflicts and may be reduced to ashes due to their acts to get funds and brokerage fees..."

ARTICLES: "Unity is strength" by Hlaing Aung: "The harmonious cooperation of the entire people to address and surmount the situations triggered by the storm ?Nargis” seems to support the saying that goes ?Unity is strength”. Myanmars showed such a consolidated unity among them in times of emergency that they won the recognition of the international community...the cohesion of the government, the people and the Tatmadaw. Since the time when the storm was still raging, the Head of State and national level dignitaries were laying down programmes to launch rescue and resettlement tasks. In the post-storm period, Chairman of the National Disaster Preparedness Central Committee Prime Minister General Thein Sein stayed in the stormravaged areas to supervise the rescue and relief measures. Furthermore, the Head of State and the Deputy Head of State made inspection tours of the storm-hit areas, fulfilled the requirements and gave guidance. A minister has been assigned to each storm-struck township to supervise the relief and rehabilitation tasks...It is also required of the entire people to maintain the already-achieved consolidated unity and participate actively in the drive for building a new nation. That is the national concern or the lifeblood for the nation..."....."A journey to storm-hit area of Mawlamyinegyun" Article & Photos: Mawgyun Myint Aung (IPRD).
