This chapter presents findings on the
extent surveyed households in the
Cyclone-affected areas had re-
established productive lives two years
after the disaster. As a prelude to its
inquiries into primary livelihood issues,
the survey sought to capture the most
important articulated needs of the
surveyed households. Heads of
households were asked to rank their
‘most important needs’

Two years after Cyclone Nargis, the
physical health of the people living in the
Ayeyarwady Delta and Yangon Division
has stabilised in many aspects because
of Government and humanitarian
agencies efforts to improve access to
food, health care, disease-prevention
activities, clean water and sanitation.
Despite this stabilisation, unequal health
impacts were still seen across
geographical areas among more
vulnerable households. Those who lost
dwellings due to Cyclone Nargis were
less likely than others to have access to
adequate water supply and sanitation.

Cyclone Nargis not only affected
individuals and families in special
circumstances or with special needs, it
also created many more. Many people
lost their spouse as well as extended
family members. Children were
orphaned. Some were disabled, and
others already disabled were left without
supporting family to assist them. Elderly
couples or individuals who lost their
children or extended families found they
were unable to support themselves.
These people and others like them make
up a special category of those most
affected by the disaster.

The Tripartite Core Group wishes to express its appreciation for the continued participation and contributions of our partners in the essential process of
monitoring and assessing the relief and recovery efforts in Cyclone Nargis-affected areas.

The ASEAN Humanitarian Task Force, Government of the Union of Myanmar Ministries, UN Agencies and many national and international non-government
and community-based organisations (see Annex 5.1) were instrumental in making the Periodic Review IV and previous Periodic Reviews successful. The
Delta Recovery Working Groups also provided valuable expertise to the Periodic Review process.

The Tripartite Core Group extends its thanks for the generous financial support to ASEAN and its donors for the Periodic Review IV and would like to
thank the Periodic Review team members who compiled, analysed and produced the data in this report.
