represent the people. The people of the Country Burma were unable to have a say in the way
they want there Country to go. Instead we see a military rule that is raping is Country of its resources
such as tin, stones, etc. and is manufacturing crystal meth at industrial portions. We have only to thank
China for allowing this to happen in its own backyard. But then again we see how China puts under house artists local artists and imprison writers Men who speak because they can. A man that will receive the Nobel Peace prize in December is sitting in a Chinese Prison for a 10 year term. - For Writing. I for one will not buy Chinese made goods any longer. The Artist name is Ai WeiWei and was arrested last week on his way to Shangai and the Nobel Laureate is Liu Xiaobo.
The problem is no longer about Aung San Suu Kyi the Lady who has been under house arrest for what
is it 20 years. The sweetest looking Women and I can imagine the heart of gold. As the leader of the
" National League of Democracy" she has tried her best to bring Burma back to a religious, wholly land of the past. To bring back the identity of what a Country what was and what can be again. Today here Son is in Bangkok having flown from London. He is waiting for the hope of his Mother's release.
You should know that during the election all media: reporters and press were not allowed to enter this Country we once called Burma. Kind of like there buddy North Korea. Not the best role model. So lets step out of the dark ages and wake up and see what is really happening in not only Burma but South East Asia as a whole. China says it has no influence and yet seems to be changing Tibet and casting away ethnic groups like it was playing "Risk". Does anybody think that North Korea would be allow to create a nuclear bomb and even test them. No China holds the very air that North Korea breaths. And has over the years been stone walling the United Nations and the World by allowing both North Korea and Iran from there pursuit of a nuclear bomb over that past 8 years. And still to this day China believes the Diplomacy and talking is the only way to defuse the Iran nuclear problem. Maybe China is correct with regards to Iran. The answer to that question will be the meeting taking place between Iran and the World Powers this coming week - supposedly.
But we will have to wait and see how that turns out. But judging from the past 7 years of negotiating with Iran it looks like a long shot. Now back Burma, as I said it is no longer about Aung San Suu Kyi but why they would continue to hold here is beyond me. It just makes you look bad.
All the Best,
Toast
later that day:
Thai officials said more than 10,000 people had fled the fierce fighting in and around the town of Myawaddy.
It erupted on Sunday in a protest linked to the election.
The poll, which was boycotted by the main opposition group, was marred by campaign restrictions, reports of irregularities and low turnout.
The UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon said voting conditions had been "insufficiently inclusive, participatory and transparent".
In a statement, he called on the ruling generals to turn the poll into a "a new beginning" by freeing Aung San Suu Kyi and more than 2,000 political prisoners.
Votes are still being counted, but two parties closely linked to the ruling military junta are expected to do well.
The poll is the first in Burma since 1990, when Ms Suu Kyi's National League for Democracy secured an overwhelming victory but was never allowed to take power.
