Description:
"The death and destruction in
Burma as a result of Cyclone Nargis
may yet come close to the Asian
Tsunami in impact: some 120,000
dead and 2.5 million needing help
now, compared to 190,000 deaths
and three million displaced in
2004. The level of devastation
might have been less in Burma,
but for the government?s decision
to control the international
response. The impact of this on
the global policy community, and
the country?s fractured opposition,
has been extensive."
