Just when the Burmese people thought it couldnt get any worse

It looks like there may be even more trouble ahead for the people of Burma. Another cyclone may be brewing in the Indian ocean. This will obviously be devastaing for the people who have already lost so much.

    Sir, how and why will there already be another cyclone getting ready to hurt more people so close after one?

  • It isn’t definite that there will be another cyclone. Meteorologists are paying close attention to a storm which could get stronger and become a cyclone as Nargis did.

    The how is exactly what we discussed in class. This is the animation we used.

    Yeah, but it might be as bad weather, but a storm wouldn’t help them either

    Also, the bbc website has said even though we have sent one plane of aid, there are more on standby, why aren’t people sending it off ASAP?

  • People are sending the aid, its all waiting on Burma’s borders ready to go in. The Burmese Government isn’t allowing it in thats the problem.

  • Hey sir did you hear what the our prime minister said about the burma military government? I agree with him and think its horrible to practically deny aid to people when they need it the most wat do u think?
