In this May 2008 photo released by the Mandalay Gazette, a body is seen floating in the Lat Put Tar region of the Irrawaddy delta of Myanmar. Winds of 120 mph (190 kph) and a storm surge 15 feet (4.5 meters) high pounded the Irrawaddy delta, killing or leaving missing more than 60,000 people in one of the worst natural disasters in living memory. Nearly 2 million others were left homeless or in need of food, shelter and medicine. (AP) |
