Burma's reclusive military junta has banned foreign aid workers from entering the Irrawaddy Delta, the region hit hardest by Cyclone Nargis, sources in the military said.
Burma Prime Minister Lt Gen Thein Sein on Tuesday told local Burmese businessmen assigned to help the reconstruction in Rangoon and the Irrawaddy Delta that foreigners would not be allowed in.
During the meeting held at Rangoon Military Command Headquarters, Thein Sein also said that anyone assigned to relief and reconstruction would not be allowed to carry cameras, the source said.
