International Development Secretary Douglas Alexander tells Burma's leaders they'll be judged on their help to Cyclone Nargis survivors.

Mr Alexander was speaking in the Burmese capital Rangoon, at a UN sponsored meeting that has seen nearly $50m pledged in aid.

Some nations - led by the US - said the funding would depend on the Burmese leadership keeping its promise to allow foreign aid workers "full and unfettered" access to the worst hit areas.
