Burma refused aid at first, then let a couple planes land, then impounded those planes so the aid boxes could have logo/image of the military junta placed over the aid organisation logo in an attempt to make the Burmese population believe the aid was coming from their own rulers.
The Burmese leader spent £25 million (or there abouts) on his daughters wedding yet only stumped up £2.5 million in aid for his people (Gordon Brown has given them £17 million in aid, god knows what other countries have chucked into the pot).
Atleast China reacted quicker, shame their buildings are so poorly designed and collapsed, not sure whether its poor standards or dodgy builders...or a combo of both.
The Burnese suffer through poor/corrupt leadership, the Chinese suffered through poor buildings, terrible hearing about all the kids trapped in collapsed school buildings, especially when lots of them where new buildings.
