Burma softens stance on cyclone aid | World news | guardian.co.uk: "Burma agreed today to allow some international assistance for the victims of Cyclone Nargis, two weeks after the devastating storm killed an estimated 128,000 people.
The move came as the ruling junta announced three days of official mourning for the cyclone victims, starting tomorrow, with flags flown to be flown at half mast. It mirrors a similar mourning period which began today in China, for the victims of last week's earthquake in Sichuan provice."
