As you know, there’s unimaginable human suffering in Burma after the devastating cyclone. And on top of that the evil military junta that rules Burma is preventing most aid from entering the country. In fact, the UN had two shipments seized by the government at the airport.
I personally have never lived in a disaster zone. I did, however, volunteer for six weeks with the Red Cross in Mexico City after the September 1985 earthquakes. I was living in Monterrey, Mexico and as soon as I heard the news myself and my friends went down to Mexico City to help. Nobody knows what the final death toll from the Mexico City earthquakes was, but after what I saw I know it was well over the estimate of 25 people dead.
As bad as it was in Mexico City, it’s multiple times worse in Burma. Mexico had an earthquake which is clearly a disaster, but a cyclone is worse. You have rain, high winds, storm surge and lots of standing water around afterwards. It destroys bridges, roads, railroad lines and makes the country impassable.
But a least, Mexico City was easy to get to and in the days after the earthquake the weather was warm and sunny. Just think of Hurricane Katrina and New Orleans and you’ll get an idea on a small scale of what’s happening in Burma.
You personally can help the cyclone victims in Burma. 100% of your contributions go directly to Burma. My family and I have known Steve and Kathy Gray since 1998. Steve & Kathy have a long-standing relationship with a Burmese pastor, Timothy Laklem of Asian Tribal Ministries, one of the few Christian ministries with access into the country.
