Myanmar has been in serious trouble since the cyclone hit, as the UN has had trouble getting aid to those in need in the nation.

Ban Ki Moon called on the government while in Myanmar to work with international donors to get their people the aid that they desperately need.

The UN has stated that as of right now, foreign relief workers are still being banned from helping out those who need it most in Myanmar.

This comes nearly 3-weeks after the May 3 cyclone hit.

The report states that 25% of those in need in Myanmar have received aid, but that is not enough obviously.
