Congratulations on a great job ! I got an idea for you. How about a sitting Buddha picture, but with the face of Than Shwe, and furthermore, draw the thinggan robes colored with army green color, not the saffron color. Phra Than Shwe seems to be preaching the traditional -- Buddhan tharanan gissami Damman tharanan gissami..... However, in the cartoon, he is instead preaching, TAYOKE tharanan gissami KALAH tharanan gissami // or combined // Tayoke-kalah tharanan gissami ASEAN tharanan gissami RUSSIAN tharanan gissami with an English explanation that it means he is seeking refuge in the above national powers. In his hands is a rosary made of (you decide) human parts, or bullets, or mini-grenades, and he has assorted swords, spears, all dripping with blood. There is no need for Buddhists to quit their religion. In your cartoon you emphasize that Than Shwe is practicing BUTCHERISM, not Buddhism. It will help Buddhists regain faith. Dear Feraya,

I've heard from my Burmese friends that many Burmese stop practice in Buddhism because of Buddha with Butcher's face. That’s Ya Da Yar.
