BBC: Mandalay was the 'city of gold' - now it reeks of death

"...So many corpses have piled up since a 7.7 magnitude earthquake struck last Friday close to Mandalay, that they have had to be "cremated in stacks", one resident says...."

A person walks past a sculpture of Buddha in a damaged temple following an earthquake in Mandalay, Myanmar, 31 March 2025.
www.bbc.comMandalay was the 'city of gold'. Now it reeks of dead bodiesResidents in Mandalay, Myanmar's second-largest city, speak of despair and sleepless nights since last week's earthquake.

There is now undeniable proof that #doge is actually COSTING the #usa money due to all the cuts making agencies LESS efficient.

500 billion is predicted to be lost by the IRS this year. Our military budget is 880 or so.

It should be called DOG because there is NOTHING efficient about it, and #elonmusk is definitely a dog. The Department of Government fits, since he wants the whole thing.

He's running things like a corrupt CEO would.

May not load great here (Mastodon does not like these GIF animations), but comparison of 3/24/25 and 3/29/25 images on this small town (Sam Ngao) you can see there have many areas where there have been some high rises/buildings collapsed. You can tell because the color of the buildings change from one color to another (roof into pile of rubble). 3/29/25 #Thailand #Earthquake #disaster #RemoteImaging

Unprepared for disasters
"the "cell broadcast service (CBS) system", which allows #emergency weather & natural #disaster #warnings to be disseminated via mobile phone messages, is not yet active. Since 2004 BoxingDay tsunami, almost every govt has promised to launch a #CBS.. #collapse of e under-construction State Audit Office Building has raised concerns abt how e #public #project, built w tax money, was so easily destroyed.. Most importantly, 🇹🇭 #government must do more"
