Why do people run away from Burma?

Burmese mother and her loved one (This is not the actual picture of victims)

Blogger’s thought

This blogger has heard the numerous sad stories of Burmese Refugees.Every day, several young men, women, old men and children of all races and religions from Burma seems to be running away from the Motherland, leaving behind their homes and for some of them, the loved ones.

Why are these people running away from Burma? Let me quote the words of a friend of this blogger (a Professional) in a job interview. He has said “If my country is 1/10 th of the current situation, I would not be  sitting here for this interview”. These unusual words of a proud professional cause the “would be” employers caught in surprise. He got the job that he deserves.

But the story is different for poor unskilled people who were forced to leave their home and the loved ones because of fear, torture and hunger. The recent news of a ten years old boy who was shot dead, in the hands of his mother hits this blogger’s heart. This news will be hard to believe for those who are living in the big cities without fear and hunger.

The mother and son were from Rakhine State, which is the western border of Burma with Bangladesh. The Father is a general worker in Malaysia. The wife and son finally decided to follow him after several years of separation. However there were no ways that they could unite legally. Finally, they have decided to trust the human traffickers who usually bring people from Burma through Thailand to Malaysia. The night journey in a bus over a highway to Malaysia with other 28 hungry and desperate people fleeing their home was initially uneventful, until Thai police ordered to stop the Bus .The driver decided to ignore the warning.

There were gun shots fired by Thai police to the runaway bus. The mother noticed blood oozing out from her chest and she thought she was hit. The boy was sleeping in her arms .Few minutes later the boy said “ May May(Mother) I think I am hit”.

These are the last words from the ten years old boy before he stopped breathing. The bus continued for one hour and then finally stopped. The Bus driver ordered the dead body of the boy, to be dumped into a roadside drain. The mother refused, and then she was told to stay behind with his son body in darkness. Confused, shocked and frightened, she finally continued the journey with a gunshot wound over her hand and of course with the guilt. She was not treated in any hospital for the wounded hand as she was too afraid to get arrested. Latest news said she finally met with her husband in Malaysia.

This blogger is keep on thinking. Why do people run away from Burma? Who are the culprits?

An Isolated Rohingya Village

Thursday, 28 February 2008

Maungdaw, Arakan State:

Twelve villagers of Thinn Baw Gwe (Kol Loon) in Maungdaw Township have been sentenced to seven years in jail by the Maungdaw High Court on February 24 for renovation of a mosque and Hafez Khana (Quaran memorial center).

The villagers had renovated the village mosque and Hafez Khana after acquiring necessary documents and permission from the Commander of Nasaka area No. 8 of Maungdaw Township , three months ago.But, the Commander was transferred and a new Nasaka Commander was appointed to Nasaka area No.8, recently. The new Commander was not happy with the renovation of mosque and Hafez Khana.

Another 20 villagers including village Chairman Khobir Ahmed (50), son of Basir Ahmed are still absconding to evade arrest by Nasak and police, said another village elder.

In Arakan State, one cannot renovate mosques, religious schools, houses even cow sheds without taking permission from concerned authorities. This is valid for only the Rohingya community.

Radio campaign for “No Vote” or ” Vote No”, Burma Referendum

February 27, 2008 1 comment

We need radios for ordinary Burmese

We need radios..radios for Burmese

Please allow this blogger to continue with the Radio Campaign for “No Vote”. This blogger has already said that this referendum is going to be a sham. It was announced in unexpected time to make people caught in surprise. This blogger agrees with Lary Jagan, that it was an act of desperado by General Than Shwe to protect his power base before it is too late.

Lary Jagan wrote in Asia Times, On-line today as follows

The planned referendum and elections indicate Than Shwe’s new determination to press forward with the country’s so-called “roadmap to democracy”, which will ensure a continued role for the military in governance. “Than Shwe obviously now feels he is secure enough in his position … to push on with some measure of reform,” said the Myanmar academic Win Min. “His failing health may also have prompted him to move at this time, as he may fear that time is running out for him.”

Everything was planned for the survival of General Than Shwe, his family and cronies. Than Shwe health is deteriorating fast. He learned a good lesson of how his predecessor Ne Win had lost absolute power, when he was ailing with poor health.

The knee jerk response of General Than Shwe was visible with reappointment of General Kyaw Win as a head of Intelligence Training school with 500,000 kyat a month salary.

Whether Than Shwe is still smart or senile with Alzheimer is non issue for all of us. (Lary Jagan said that he may need a second cardiac operation soon in Singapore!)

The important point for all of us is how we should convey the message of either “No Vote” or “Vote No” to our people. Political leaders should come up with clear message to Burmese people as this referendum will be very important step for our future generation. It will legitimize authority of the Military Junta and will turn Burmese people into the slaves of Military forever if we are not united with one voice.

Well, we all know these facts, but how to make Burmese people aware of the unseen shadow of permanent Military Dictatorship for Burma is looming over them by the name of “referendum at gun point.” Some thinks that Burmese people know what to do.

(This blogger found the post ျပည္သူကို ယုံပါ
by ၀င္းေပၚေမာင္ which is very interesting at Momakha..link at the end of this post)

Not enough with the daily struggle for food, and other basic needs, Burmese people are under tremendous pressure due to poor socioeconomic condition and corruption. Military Junta knows well how to effectively use the ” Fear” tactic to divide and rule among Burmese.

Comrades, from DVB, RFA, and all those who love to see “Free Burma”. Please continue your radio on air with the simple message that tells Burmese people what to do with this referendum. There should be only one voice for referendum among pro-democracy groups and that should be either “No Vote” or ” Vote No”.

Aljazeera, BBC and VOA, should add more slots for “No Vote” or ” Vote No”campaign on their program as soon as possible.

For this blogger, I can only plead the leaders to come up with the clear message for all of us. We would like to hear only one voice from you all “No Vote ” or” Vote No” ?

King and Fire, enemies of Burma

February 25, 2008 Leave a comment

Fire has ravaged the newly built Yadanapon supermarket today. According to the local source the fire was successfully put down only at 6:00 PM local time.

Mandalay is the business hub for the Military ruled Burma as it is strategically located in the junction of main roads leading to China, India, and Thailand. The fire may cause the Computer Market of Mandalay in adverse, as most of the computers and IT business thrived in Yadanapon supermarket. A staff of an ICT center who tried to start the generator with petrol was the source of the fire, according to unconfirmed sources.

There was another major fire broke out in Rangoon on the same day. Estimated three thousand people became homeless due to this fire.

Burmese believe that fire and kings are among the five major common enemies of the citizens of a nation. The king of Burma has already proved to the world that he was indeed an enemy of Burmese people. The fire which was just an accident and a natural disaster will enhance the belief of Burmese people that, they are facing the enemies according to the traditional teaching and religion.

This blogger can not stop thinking how many Million of Burmese people will be whispering among each other to night by comparing a bad King and Inferno of Mandalay and Rangoon, in terms of disastrous effect to the society.

Bad news for all of us. Fire razed a downtown supermarket in Mandalay on 25.02.2008. Yadanarbone Market is a relatively new for Mandalay, compare to well known Zay Cho.

It was built and operated in 2003, near Mandalay Railways Station. An ICT center, a supermarket and several restaurants and retail out lets selling Chinese products were in the complex.

Sorry for those who have lost their properties in this unfortunate fire of Yadanarpon Market, Mandalay.
