Hmm, sure i agree that the Military junta shd be removed; but if
the means is through deception i.e. posing as monks and
deliberately get themselves shot to raise public anger and
sympathy?? then.. are you sure when the junta is gone, the incoming
government will then be clean with impeccable integrity and honor?
NO!
even if it's really really really thru deception, it's at least
better than nothing.
at least burmese got action and they wanna save themselves.
what's wrong with fighting for your freedom?
this myanmar episode has made me learnt a lot of new things about
politics and politicians: they're all words and no-action.
across the world, all the politicians, even our divine flawless SG
government, can ever do....is to come up with super-fanciful words
of condemnation, such as "we will not tolerate such a REPULSIVE
regime", "abhorrent act", "we strongly urge..."
i always wonder why politicians don't change careers and be
literature teachers instead since their use of words are better
than our english teachers.
the people of myanmar are waiting for foreign help to save
them.
judging from the looks of things, it's impossible for them to
topple the government or rebel since they don't even have access to
ammo to begin with.
their government is an absolute one.
in the case on indonesia / phillippines / eastern europe
governments, their troops don't shoot at their own people even when
the latter rebels, but in myanmar, they don't ****ing care who
you're.
that's why the governments above can be toppled by their own people
but not in the case of myanmar.
japanese, korean, whatever, the very moment they think u wanna
rebel, you die.
