Re: Just get the stuff to Burma ...

by jad

M, check out this link http://www.ctv.ca/servlet/ArticleNews/story/CTVNews/20080507/burma_relief_080508/20080508/ The disaster happened on May 2, and the Government announced its decision to go on May 8, which was SIX days later. Departure was held up because the Burmese government were refusing entry to aid workers, and the DART team ended up going to Thailand to await permission to go in. David, why can I not post a proper link on this site ? Is there some technical problem with your site, or was I doing something strange with the link ?
