Comment on Thidagu Sayadaw Teaching: To Avoid Scoundrels by Richard Zin

Richard Zin — Thu, 24 Jul 2008 11:06:32 +0000

Great teaching with great knowledge from Thidayou Sayardaw.
Wish all the generals and the soldiers understand what Sayardaw mean. Bad luck to our poor people in Burma. They can’t run away from Lu Maike Junta. So like Nargis, swept away all the people. Hope we can wish all the best for our Burmese people.

Comment on Burma after Nargis : Devastated, Depressed and Dejected by Samuel

Samuel — Thu, 24 Jul 2008 10:23:17 +0000

My colleaques from Myanmar presented the Nargis at the university hall. Participants includes students from nepal, Bangladesh, India, Philipines, Sri-Lanka, Australia and cambodia. They also invited profferssors and tutors who hails from Serbia, US etc. teaching here ( Cambodia). The Presentation clearly shows the hypocratic behavior of the Authorities in delivering the aid. Surprise to see that the government relief workers waiting photographer to click them before they were disperse to the affected places. The relief camps set up by the regime is also neat and clean. The photo shows a victims dress in style, good clothes shaking hands with the millitary personel. In reality, it was said that no affected victims wish to stayed in the govt. run camps. people stayed either in temples, churches or at relatives. The person was just called and he acted as if he is in the rehabilitation camps said to just show the outside world that they had done enough. people are questioning in the light of the human catastrophe why was the millitary regime proceed referendum? One of the volunteers who goes to the region said, after weeks of the Nargis, decomposed human bodies still lies in the open, people drink the same water wher they pass stool. he ask the millitary personel why the decompose bodies were not taken out till today. The personnel said that, why should we bother them when they are already dead. Don’t worry, within few days fishes will eat them up.

So many places around the world held memorial services too.
But NLD and it’s supporters inside Burma are the bravest of all.
They are under iron boots and risked everything including their freedom and probably lives for this memorial which is important day for all Burmese.
Congratulations, huge applaude, big support and bravo to them!!!!

This kind of article and sayings are insulting the burmese people who need help of international community. In stead of helping them, it pushes the situtaion into worse. The opposition still do not understand why 92% of people voted the so call sham constitution!!

It seems that the opposition has decisided to destroy our Nation at all cost because they had lost their game.

best regards

Comment on U.S. POSITION ON BURMA REFERENDUM by aminaputu

Dear All Burmese Public,

According to our contacts in Burma, MOE (Ministry of Energy) met with UNOCAL in July 2008 and some of delegation group are going to Japan for Energy matter.

The SPDC will continue the last pending project called 3 in 1 gas line project. Which is connecting from Total Platform to Rangoon through Irrawaddy (Nagis) Delta area.

So, the Government is not interested in Nagis victim’s relief program.

The SPDC will make some more US Dollar profit from those Pipe Line connection projects such as,

1. Pipe Contractors
2. Sub Sea jobs
3.Platform or up stream project construction
4.On shore projects
5. Gas Turbines purchasing
6. Gas Compressor Projects
7. Metering Station construction at along the pipe line route
8. Local projects.

So, we have to open our eye and ear for SPDC mis-using of our state owned money.

Some of enquiry are also making at Production Department and Planning Department of Myanmar Oil & Gas Eneterprise for detailed implementation.

According to our information, where is the last projects enquiry,

1. Pipe Line were purchased from CHINA and how many million of US Dollar for the POCKET MONEY were stolen.

2. Where is the Technic Offshore and HS Compressor’s Mark-Up price and how many million of US Dollar were taken.

3. Why not declare the Offshore Gas Income from 1996 to 2008 such as signature bonus, daily income, revnue and other profit.

Who destroy the Burma and who are the doing business with our public owned money or natural resources.

Comment on Photo: Burmese in Bonn Urged Ban Ki-moon for more Help by Nwe Aung (London)

Nwe Aung (London) — Fri, 18 Jul 2008 10:34:18 +0000

Congratulations, dear Burma Bureau colleagues, for your prompt efforts to show up UN SG Ban Ki-moon when he was in Bonn.
Ban Ki-moon should not be contented because he met the bully Than Shwe of Burma. He must continuously press Than Shwe until his promises are fulfilled. Since Than Shwe’s military regime has not and never taken the Responsibility to Protect its own citizens, it is now the duty of the UN SG Ban Ki-moon and UNSC to take the Responsibility to Protect the people of Burma by means of Humanitarian Intervention NOW, before more people died.

Dear All Burmese,

How can we agreed the SPDC created Election again, the above gentlemen are saying those SPDC groups are stealing our ntural resources money. How can we give respect those ” Thieves Gaing”"

We also request to China and Russia to stop as PILLET or Supporting status to SPDC or Martial Government.
