Ceasefires got the bull by the horns

The Burmans, Ethnics, Rohingyas, Westerners' blood come in one single colour; Red for Passion, it is very strong and powerful. We must save and protect every single drop, any disagreements on colours or disguises must be kept under control as we are all Human Beings with rights to this earth and many of the displaced people are born in Burma with full rights to live there...

Educated elite eloquent Burmese officials

Burma's regime has "dedicated" a lot of resources to the development of education for his Elite followers and we are being delighted with the results from the Than Shwe's regime dedication to his Elite forces after all, during his tenure he has done a lot of good improvements to the country which the citizens are enjoying NOW such as, education, for example:

Xenophobic Than Shwe regime, his propagandists and vanguards

By Habib Siddiqui

Khin Maung Saw's thesis on trying to de-legitimatize the Rohingya history in Arakan is not new. For the last three years, as an obsessed, xenophobic Rakhine, much given to pen-pushing, and spread of hateful messages, he is known for trying his best to re-write history that would obliterate Rohingya's historicity in today's Arakan. His pseudo-history has been already refuted by others.

Alteasean February 2009 Burma Bulletin

SPDC sabotages ASEAN Summit. ASEAN leaders: decide to deport Rohingya - if they really exist; adopt a draft of toothless procedures for ASEAN’s human rights body; and allow the junta to hijack meaningful dialogue with civil society organizations.

Color me pretty Burmese...!

I see I see true colours…

I see I see how blind they turn

I see I see how white make some blind

I see I see racism in many

I see I see a sad opportunist group

They are Burmese in need of help

The blessed ones would be the colored Rohingya

God protects the Rohingya

Let the sad groupy to be looked after
by handsome Than Shwe

Rohingya, Tha Shwe and Burmese racism

For years we have known who and what Than Shwe is. I read so many tags about him and his junta that I lost count already.

The Rohingya people have the ‘right to exist’ in Arakan, illegitimate SPDC has no rights

The Rohingya people have the ‘right to exist’ in Arakan,

ROHINGYA ARE INDIGENOUS TO BURMA

Press Release
31 January 2009

We strongly protest and condemn SPDC for its lie in ‘New Light of Myanmar’ dated 29th January 2009 - “Rohinja is not included in over 100 national races of the Union of Myanmar”. This is an evil design to deny us of our rights, and we rebut as follows:

Burmese junta denies rights to exist

Is there a holistic approach to Burma’s refugee problem?

With the Rohingya boat people washing up almost daily on Thai shores, it is appropriate and as well, a welcome initiative for the Thai government to call for a conference, involving and consulting all concerned countries, including Burma, Bangladesh, Malaysia, Indonesia and India to find durable solutions. In other words, applying a holistic or comprehensive approach, like an opinion piece on 26 January of The Nation rightly pointed out.
