Myanmar opens border to international aid

Myanmar's military junta opened its borders under pressure to more international help after a devastating cyclone killed over 100,000 people, according to the US diplomat in Yangon, Shari Villarosa. UN relief flights started to arrive on Thursday. South Korea's Foreign Minister has also said his country would provide $2 million US dollars-aid to cyclone-ravaged Myanmar on top of the 100,000 US dollar worth of aid announced earlier.
