Local government officials in Rangoon, Burma, are using Cyclone Nargis as an opportunity to make a buck. Some are selling aid and bribing residents, according to sources in Rangoon. See my article on the front page of today’s Huffington Post.

Hi Hanna,

I saw a note about your piece on NPR Re: contacting family in Burma. Would your husband or anyone that you know be interested in telling their story for our show? Please get in touch with me (919) 445-9243, and I can give you some more information on what I’m looking for with this piece.

Thanks!
-Jeannette Arrowood
