FACTBOX: Aid offers for Myanmar
(Reuters) - Myanmar was promised nearly $50 million in cyclone aid at a conference in Yangon on Sunday, but some Western donor nations said their cash was contingent on the junta keeping its word on letting in foreign aid workers and assessment teams.
Up to 2.4 million people face hunger and disease in Myanmar, three weeks after Cyclone Nargis struck the southern Irrawaddy delta region on May 2-3 leaving 134,000 people dead or missing.
The junta said last Wednesday that it needed $11 billion for resettlement, reconstruction and rehabilitation. On Friday it agreed to admit foreign aid workers to the delta region, after a top-level meeting with U.N. chief Ban Ki-moon.
