BANGKOK, May 12 (Reuters) - The World Food Programme is delivering emergency food to Myanmar's cyclone-ravaged Irrawaddy delta at a fraction of the rate needed by the storm's 1.5 million survivors, officials said on Monday.

"We think we need to be moving 375 tonnes of food a day down into the affected areas. We are doing less than 20 percent of that," WFP spokesman Marcus Prior said in the Thai capital. (Reporting by Darren Schuettler, Writing by Ed Cropley; Editing by Bill Tarrant)
