The Burmese government has been found to be blocking aid to its citizens, with the suffering they have endured and the pain they're undergoing. Evidently this is an attempt to control the situation, a situation that evidently they have had no control over. The United Nations should, in the words of the French foreign minister, fully exercise its "responsibility to protect" the suffering citizens of Myanmar/Burma. The world fears for the people of Burma, and its suffering cannot continue unabated.
On a separate note, the sham referendum held presently is stunning in its plain blatantness and sheer audacity.
On a personal note, I've donated USD10 to the UNICEF, and USD5 to the International Burmese Monks Organization through Avaaz. Please support the amazing work these organisations are doing.
