Myanmar asks for international aid to handle floods


The Myanmar government has appealed for international aid amid floods which have killed at least 46 people and affected more than 210,000.


Four areas in the country have been declared disaster zones with widespread flooding and landslides caused by heavy monsoon rain.


Many areas are still completely cut off by high waters or damaged roads.


The government has admitted giving a weak response to the disaster, according to state media.


The Global New Light of Myanmar newspaper quoted Information Minister Ye Htut as saying that flood warnings had not reached everyone, and there had been confusion over evacuations.
