After Buddhist Monks, Bloggers are the second most helpful asset for the Burmese people.

::::::::

Buddhist monks have given food and shelter to the cyclone survivors. They've raised money , medicine, and aid, by preaching Dhamma in public to help the people in need.

Like the Buddhist monks, some Bloggers are also helping the victims by raising money from blogs.  Some Bloggers are reporting the news to the world, and some are helping the people. My friend, blogger Ko Soe Zayya, and four other bloggers, recently organized Private Volunteer Group for Nargis Cyclone Victims under the name of Handy.

 They went to the Irrawaddy delta where Nargis cyclone hit. They are building shelters and houses for the survivors. " They will build 29 houses in Seik Kan Thar Laygone village. To date 15 houses are completed" said Soe zayya, a Burmese blogger. They have already built many shelter houses for survivors in Kanyintabin village and Kammalartabin Chaung village.
