Myanmar enters a desperate phase
It is indeed heart-wrenching to hear reports of Myanmar citizens struggling to find food on a daily basis.
We hope those who ruled that sad land with an iron fist will relent and allow foreign aid to come into the country, unimpeded.
God knows the desperate villagers in the interior are desperately in need of food, medicine and other essentials.

Say a prayer for Burma
Even as these lines are penned, US ships off the coast of Burma are preparing to leave because the military junta has refused to allow army helicopters to land on their soil.
Who knows how many lives have been affected by this harsh decision? The aftermath of the cyclone that devastated the Irrawaddy Delta has taken a terrible toll on the land and on human lives.
As politics are being played out in this sorrowful land called Myanmar or Burma by others, the ordinary people continue to suffer and to die.
What a waste of human lives. Mercy has been extended but has been turned down, not once but 14 times, according to UN reports.
