    No government... is immune from natural disaster... But a government that is not accountable to anyone and does not allow any form of decentralised structure to function... is a recipe for what amounts to mass murder in the event of a natural calamity... The Myanmar government’s conduct in the last few weeks may soon rank among the worst tragedies in living memory caused by people obsessed with power.

    Excerpted from ‘The Unforgiven’ by Alvaro Vargas Llosa in The New Republic
