A young boy runs past a wardrobe in a house destroyed by Cyclone Nargis near Pyapon in the Irrawaddy Division of Myanmar May 9, 2008. Myanmar will accept foreign aid but not foreign aid workers, the foreign ministry said on Friday, after a disaster rescue team from Qatar that arrived in Yangon on an aid flight was turned back.
