Yes!

Asean says there is an agreement to allow medical workers, and disaster assessment teams from Asean member countries, to go in to Burma immediately.

Re: Natural disaster made in to man made catastrophe
 
As a slight side issue, when watching CCN I wish they would follow the BBCs lead and refer to the country as Burma and not Myanmar, the name the Burmese generals came up with. Obviously the Burmese people couldn't care less at present, but as outsiders looking in using the name Myanmar gives added credence to the generals.
