Looking at the 2 different governments, I feel the Chinese government has done better in crisis management, their Premier Wen was there at the disaster zone for the people and to direct rescue efforts. Contrast different from the Burmese government.
The Junta in this case, has refused all Aid Workers initially, stating; ‘Give me the Aid and stay away… We don’t need your help’. Then why in the first place they need Aid?
Looking at China, Singapore Premier Lee offered SCDF Disaster Assistance Rescue Team and $200,000. in financial aid, which was warmly welcomed by Premier Wen. However, the DART team was declined as time was not ‘ripe’ as access route to the disaster zone is not accessible. (See… at least China welcome relieve efforts but they provided a valid reason.)
Unless access route is cleared, having relieve workers there will put on farther strain on the Chinese government to look after them.
Only hope is for the Burmese government will open up their borders quickly to receive Aid workers.

Two different goverment working differenly..
i really salute China's Premier Wen, he is there to confort the victims and give support to the rescue teams.. Everyone in China is doing their bits, even the youth in Beijing is donating blood to help..
This shows that China's spirit is very strong..
