Mandalay, Yangon, London, London, April 11 (IPS) -A two weeks after a fatal earthquake, the military Junta, located in the center of Myanmar, instructed the flow of international aid in the center of the city where the civilians were bombed by the resistance.
As the number of deaths confirmed by the earthquake on March 28 approached, foreign aid efforts led by the regime began, and joined with other neighboring countries, including India, Bangladesh and Thailand, and major relief agencies and the European Commission.
However, the degree of disaster, which is estimated at 2 million people, has seriously weakened the national structure of health and education by the non -violent civil disobedience movement after the four -year inter -Korean war.
“We did not receive the help of the authorities. The support is rarely present. The rescue ability of the authorities is very limited. The rescue group has reached very late in the affected community, so we are seeing more losses than when it happened.”
“We’ve faced a big financial burden because we can’t afford to repair the house. It hurts me to see my loved ones and others who have lost their homes, and I feel guilty.”
Other survivors accused the regime that they did not allow medical workers to quit the main sector in a 2021 coup. Former doctors and nurses employees are employees of employees, employees of employees, employees, employees, employees, cannot resume and resume employees.
The prices of food, fuel and other essential elements are rising, and people are afraid of crime and plunder. “With all these challenges, the army is consulting people who oppose their will.”
In many regions, relief efforts are led by local individuals and charity, and donations and parallel NAGs (NAG (National United Government) are also driven out of the coup and partially operated outside of Myanmar.
The destroyed legs, roads, power supply and communication have already interrupted relief, and JUNTA is exercising the control that it can do.
On April 5, deputy director SOE WIN declared that the original organization could not operate independently and demanded the approval of the regime. Many had to give up their mission. Unknown volunteers were arrested and some were drafted.
Until April 6, there was no hope to dig more survivors, and foreign search and rescue teams left, including Singapore, Malaysia and India. Some donated equipment donated to Myanmar firefighting services. Most Red Cross in many countries, including the UK, work through Myanmar Red Cross, JUNTA’s wings.
The state council of the regime, led by Min Aung HLAIN, has prioritized the slogan and aid efforts of NAY PYI TAW. Military Fortress and Showcase City declared the capital in 2005, and declared friends and monasteries as well as Mandalay, the second largest city in this country.
In the Yamethin village of Mandalay, thin thin thin thin thin thin thin thin thin thin thin thin thin thin thin thin thin thin thin thin thin thin thin thin thin thin thin thin thin thin thin thin thin thin thin thin thin thin thin thin thin thin thin thin thin thin places of Mandalay, “When the house collapsed, we lost a lot of ancient buildings in our village and many people in our village. It collapsed in the earthquake. ”
“The government does not help us. Only the people around the neighbors are helping to liquidate the debris. Everything needed to rebuild the house is too expensive. What we need is cash support.”
DAVID GUM AWNG, the deputy director of the NUG International Cooperation, is trying to adjust relief efforts if possible, and the regime is particularly limiting access to the region beyond JUNTA’s control in the SAGAING area, the epicenter of the 7.7 earthquake. The regime raid continued.
He told the IPS that NUG is working with UN institutions and international relief groups to expand the reach by safety, path cleaning and sharing information.
“The prospects for peace are in Limbo because Junta did not show signs of persistent and positive peace,” he said.
“SAC troops are still engaged in active battle, attacks and drone attacks, making relief efforts more difficult.” “If Junta seriously thinks about sustainable peace, they can first solve all political prisoners and stop all offensive. It will be a very good start and not happen yet.”
NUG said JUNTA performed 92 air raids and artillery attacks from March 28 to April 8, killing 72 civilians, including 30 women and six children. Sagaying and Mandalay are the most targets.
JUNTA declared a three -week ceasefire in accordance with the international pressure on April 2, and immediately went bankrupt and accused the various national armed groups and people’s defense of the defense of their ceasefire. In the remote jaw, this week, the national army allies captured the military base of Palam after five months of siege, and JUNTA reported that it could withdraw the control of Lashio, a major city of Shaan.
As the army stretched on several fronts and weakened into defectors and casualties, the army had little scope or appetite for earthquake relief.
“A much better resource army has arranged only the small soldiers to protect the famous buildings, visited the generals in major Buddhist areas, and arranged only small soldiers to organize the debris.
In the middle of war and after death, the government has a major city but has about one -third of the territory’s intention to hold elections for four weeks in late 2025 and early 2026. Many of the parties, including the National League for Democracy (NLD), who won the 2020 elections in which the army was invalidated, is already forbidden and will be boycotted. NLD leader Aung San Suu Kyi remains in prison in the capital.
Min Aung HLAING, who had been able to travel several times after taking control of power, took time to attend a local summit hosted in Thailand in Bangkok on April 4.
As a side job, the 68 -year -old 68 -year -old general met Muhammad Yunus, the head of Bangladesh.
On the same day, the media office of the Bangladeshi government said that 180,000 refugees in Myanmaro were eligible to return.
The repatriation process has been stagnant for several years. Many refugees refuse to return as long as citizenship and other rights are rejected. The Myanmar regime, on the other hand, led to the possibility of survival of large -scale repatriation operations mainly by losing control of the Lakin border states mainly in the Buddhist nationalist Aracan army.
“While the Myanmar people mourned the dead, the chief general Min Aung Hlain is enjoying some diplomatic sunshine,” Frontier Myanmar is the first trip to Southeast Asian countries since early 2021 and the Prime Minister Shinawatra and Narendra mode in India He mentioned a handshake with Prime Minister Thai.

The European Union responded to a 13 million euro aid and demanded a “all party” to give an unpredictable approach. It said that in order to harmonize with the “human partner”, 12 European experts and two EU liaison officers are on the ground.
