I was still full of hope when last week news reported foreign aids were allowed into Myanmar. But I was wrong..it seems like the situation is not getting much better. Saw the news that Myanmar's military leaders is evicting storm refugees from relief camps back to their land to tend their fields and revive agriculture. Reviving agriculture is indeed vital but they are forcing people home without any aid. Many people are still starving..Another piece of news that I come across really sadden my heart...Here's a paragraph extracted from the news, "hunger could not be a problem, since farmers can gather water clover or go out with lamps at night and catch plump frogs." Oh my god..this is so so sad..According to the news report, this is a statement made by the military leaders of the country...Check out these 2 links if you are interested to read more.

Aren't we fortunate to be living in Singapore...Many people complaint and complaint about anything or everything but I think the problems we enountered are so tiny compared to people in Myanmar...
I hope..I pray...for peace and love to surround the entire universe..May love and light be shed upon every dark corners of the world..I really hope love can put a smile back onto these people's face again...
