    Swan Arr Shin and USDA members along with some other people such as richshaw pullers, are being offered 2000 kyats per day to swell the ranks of government’s civilian security forces.

    I think the Swan Arr Shin and government officals are there too.But they are not taking any action against the monks because they are outnumbered.Thanks for………..
