Time and again small clear places
Emergency services remain feverishly looking for survivors in the ruins. There are a few good news: Chinese teams have succeeded in saving three buried ground, including a five -year -old child around 60 hours after the catastrophe.
Moreover, a pregnant woman and a 29-year-old were saved. Because many victims cannot be reached because of the poor infrastructure, according to the local media, there is already a worse scent of funeral in the air. The military junta in the Crisisland called a one -week state state until 6 April.

Air strikes on resistance groups with many deaths are the order of the day. Myanmar is also repeatedly affected by serious natural disasters. Only last year were there enormous floods after serious rains, the UN of which was hit by more than a million people. Hundreds drowned.
