Foreign Aid for Myanmar Still Struggles to Get In - WSJ.com

Foreign Aid for Myanmar Still Struggles to Get In - WSJ.com: "YANGON, Myanmar -- Two weeks after Myanmar's government promised to open its doors to foreign-aid workers, little has changed for relief staff here, and in some ways the situation has worsened.

Access to the country's devastated Irrawaddy River delta has improved for a few relief organizations, including groups affiliated with the United Nations, since U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-Moon met with Myanmar's top generals in late May and appeared to extract a promise for greater access to victims."
