Myanmar’s military on Wednesday announced a unilateral ceasefire in its fight against rebels until April 22 to expedite relief and reconstruction efforts after last week’s devastating earthquake, which has killed more than 3,000 people.

    Hasn’t the Junta also been making it really damn difficult for aid organizations to actually get in and help?

      Yeah Aussie docs were saying Junta was preventing aid being sent to rebel-controlled areas. And local media have reported that no help has been sent to Sagaing, the epicenter of the quake and an area that’s largely controlled by the PDF and NUG, or is in a constant state of fight for control.
