UN says it needs more money for Myanmar relief | Chron.com - Houston Chronicle: "YANGON, Myanmar — The United Nations said Thursday it has received less than half the money it needs for cyclone relief in Myanmar, with some nations delaying their donations because of concerns about restrictions imposed by the military government on foreign aid workers.
The U.N. set a goal of $201.6 million for its relief efforts but so far has received only $113.2 million, or 44 percent, from government donors, it said. An additional $51 million in pledges has not yet been delivered, the U.N. said."
