Humanitarian Coordinator issues statement to mark one month since the 28 March quake

Mizzima

On 28 April the Humanitarian Coordinator a.i. for Myanmar issued a statement marking the one-month mark since the destructive 28 March earthquake in Myanmar.

The text of the statement is as follows.

One month after two powerful earthquakes struck Myanmar on 28 March, millions of people are still struggling to cope with the devastating impacts. Although international attention has faded, for the communities shattered by the earthquakes and the front-line workers continuing to assist them, the emergency for most is far from over – it is another crisis on top of the challenges already facing the people of Myanmar.
