Difference between China and Burma

What is the big difference between China and Burma(Myanmar)?

Well, while the Chinese government at least take care for there people, and is intelligent enough to accept foreign aide workers into the country, the Burmese one is stupid and only takes care about their power(and money, of course).

After the devastating earthquake in the Sichuan province, which caused 19.000 dead's until now, many of them kids, the Chinese government acted quickly and send 80.000 soldiers to the region to help the people. And also, they accepted immediately the aide workers from other countries. Even from the USA.

And now they even mobilized 30.000 additional soldiers, not just to help victims, but also to shore up weakened dams and other elements of the infrastructure whose failure could compound the disaster. If the dams would break, nobody even would like to think what could happen than.

And Burma? Their the military junta is sitting on their fat asses, and have sealed off the delta from the outside world, expelling foreign aid workers, and placing multiple checkpoints along the roads. The Red Cross reported, that as many as 2.5 million people were affected by the cyclone, and that the death toll could reach 120.000.

Oh, sorry, I forgot, now Burmese authorities say they would accept up to 160 foreign aide workers, but only from India, China, Thailand and Bangladesh.
