More than 100,000 people are dead from the direct hot of the mega storm. But now disease is spreading, Rotting corpses are piling up as Myanmar junta stalls on aide. Close to 500,000 people will die if the UN does not intervene and take out the military junta that has lost its common sense.
Relief agencies say decomposing corpses litter ditches and fields in the worst-hit Irrawaddy delta area as survivors try to conserve fuel for transporting much-needed supplies.
The international community is growing increasingly frustrated with the junta's lack of progress in granting visas for relief workers and giving clearance for aid flights to land.
Myanmar Radio and Television (MRTV) announced that shipments from Bangladesh, China, India, Singapore, Italy and Thailand arrived at Yangon's international airport.
The station said the military was using helicopters to deliver medicine, food and generators throughout the Irrawaddy delta, specifically along the areas around Bassein and Pyapon.
But aid workers from the United Nations and other organizations were still concerned that supplies weren''t getting into the country fast enough.
It is world’s worst managed disaster ever in recorded times.
