ARTICLE [continued from yesterday]: "Let?s replace earth bricks with stone ones (2)" by Kyaw Min Lu (Shwepyitha): "...Now, the victims are consuming the relief supplies donated by US citizens. So, my heartfelt thanks go to them. A meal and some drinking water are invaluable for a natural disaster victim. However, the strings attached to the relief supplies carried by warships and military helicopters are not acceptable to the Myanmar people. We can manage by ourselves. Myanmar has many good neighbourly countries. The people remain united in times of emergency. Now, we have achieved success in the relief and rehabilitation tasks to a certain degree. The task is very challenging, but we will be able to achieve the goal if we continue to work together with tenacity. So, I would say don?t worry about that..."..... "PERSPECTIVES": "Carry out rehabilitation work through concerted efforts".
