World Vision Responds: Myanmar Cyclone

This is another article on World Vision about Myanmar Cyclone.
 
Hope that my blog readers would be more than willing to show your sincere heart to help the needy ones!

Dear World Vision Donor/Sponsor,

Cyclone Nargis has wreaked major devastation on the Irrawaddy Delta region and Yangon city of Myanmar.
According to state news reports more than 22,000 people were killed and over 1 million have lost their homes. The cyclone is the deadliest natural disaster to hit Myanmar in recent history. The government has declared a state of emergency in five provinces, and has invited World Vision to assist in relief efforts.

World Vision is distributing relief items and has sent assessment teams to the worst hit areas.

亲爱的捐款者/助养人,

您或许已经听闻有关热带风暴"纳尔吉斯" 严重破坏缅甸的伊洛瓦底三角洲及首都仰光的新闻。

根据缅甸官方媒体报导,这场风灾夺走了22,000人的性命,造成逾一百万人流离失所。这场热带风暴是缅甸历史上最严重的天灾。缅甸军政府已宣布5个受重创的省份进入紧急状态,并邀请世界宣明会协助展开紧急救援工作。

目前世界宣明会已开始分派救援物资,也委派了考察团队到最严重的灾区进行调查。
欲知最新情报,请浏览http://www.wvasiapacific.org/

任何有心捐款支持世界宣明会在当地进行救援工作的善心人士,请击此处。谢谢。
我们非常感谢所有热心捐献者的回应。

备注:由于位置偏北,马来西亚世界宣明会在缅甸的社区发展计划并没有受到这次风暴的影响。
