Buddhist monks have given food and shelter to the cyclone survivors and have 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 news to the world and some are helping the people. My friend blogger Ko Soe Zayya and four other bloggers have recently organized a Private Volunteer Group for Nargis Cyclone Victims under the name of Handy. They have been to the Irrawaddy delta and are building there shelters and houses for the survivors. " They will build 29 houses in Seik Kan Thar Laygone village and 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.
