The cyclone NARGIS, occurred over the Bay of Bengal on May 3rd 2008, it struck Yangon and other parts of Myanmar at a wind speed of about 192 kilometers per hour within a diameter of 240 kilometers. The cyclone was at its high for about 10 hours from early Saturday to noon. The impact of the cyclone is so devastating that more than 30,000 people have been killed in two parts of Yangon and Irrawaddy and about many people are still reported missing. The worst hit are the villages where lakhs of people have become homeless. The cyclone has left the cities totally lifeless and it is difficult to calculate the loss of lives & property. The Irrawaddy delta which was regarded as Myanmar’s Rice Bowl has no more rice to offer its own people.
