Collateral Damage,Demons and Angels of the Freedom of Burma

The Blogger’s thought

Truthfulness

Sincerity

Love

Peace

These are the values that this blogger love

Slandering

Back Biting

Lies

Hatred

These are the values that this blogger hate

However we are at the War with the Evil, who does not understand any values of the norm.

We do not have much time to think of in the War, as we need to move quickly and effectively to achieve the aim which is the Freedom Of Burma.

I have heard that some of my fellow bloggers were criticised by others for posting the information which was unable to verify its authenticity.

I would like to call this kind of mistake as Collateral damage of the War which is unavoidable. This blogger has posted some posts in this blog which may hurt some people’s feeling.

Please do not forget that Daw Aung San Suu Kyi,and U Tin Oo were still under the arrest. We heard that Ko Ko Gyi was sick in the Insein prison. Ko Htin Kyaw’s where about was unknown to his family. Latest information about him was “he was on hunger strike”.

Min Ko Naing and other 88 generation leaders were in the Burmese Prisons, which seems to be little humane whenever UN Envoys visit them. Otherwise these places are inaccessible to the normal Burmese Citizens.

In short Burma is an example of the modern day slavery under the Military Junta. Our Independence has been taken away by the Generals for almost half a Century.

So what is the big deal about making some mistakes in writing some wrong information in the blogs. I was told by a friend that Than Shwe was never hospitalised for the mental illness and Wikepedia was wrong in that aspect.

I wish Wikepedia was right about that information. Even if it is wrong , my conscious is clear as I am very sure that he is a real Evil. When we attack the father of the Evil, some of the small Demons will be exposed.

If these people are Angels, however we have wrongly placed them in the list of Demons, the history will finally reveal the answer of who were the Angels and Who were the Demons of the history of Burma.

I would call these unintentional mistakes as collateral damage on the road to the Freedom of Burma.

Because of the indecisivness and the slow reaction of U Nu, Ne Win has grabbed the Democracy from Burmese people and passed over to the generations of the Evil Regimes.

General Aung San was quick and swift in his decision, that made the “Temporary Independence of Burma” from 1948 to 1962 possible.

So let’s forget the distractions, and keep on moving forward.

Read the Classic Poem of the Great Burmese Poet.

The Pyinma* Stump
(Pyinma Ngote Toh)

Gnarled, grotesque and vulture like
Old Pyinma stump assumes an ugly sight
It stands alone on the mound height.

Its branching point has an old hole
Scab around it has hardened and old
It was eaten by white ants galore.

Near the mound bank the soil is parched
A soldier’s helmet and a dry cloth dummy perched
It points to a military camp.

This old Pyinma stump
Has endured wars and white ants
Suffered sword-cuts and sun-burns
Storms could not turn it bowed
When summer comes along…
Old leaves fall down for new leaves
It assumes a new look in the breeze
Wow! Thou art a hero to me.

* Pyinma is a big tropical tree like an oak tree in Europe.

Minthuwun
(11.1.1949)
Translation Dr Maung Maung Nyo
(13.6.2007)

Just want to share with the Burmese Readers. This  great poem , used to be recited by all of us, once upon a time in Burma.

Sayagyi Minthuwun who was a Great Burmese poet and National Literature Laurette’s Classic works were banned by the Military Junta for his involvement in the National Politics of Burma, even after his death.

R Zarnie created havoc in Mai Sauk?

(DVB Report of R Zarnie stage show)

This blogger has received information regarding the R Zarnie stage show from two different sources. According to DVB, the satge shows seemed to be uneventful, however the New Era Joural reported as follows. ( The blogger personally like R Zarnie’s powerful voice)

Burmese Singer R Zarnie has performed a live stage show recently, in Mai Sauk, Thailand. According to the New Era Journal, R Zarnie was late for his performance, which was initially scheduled to start at 7 pm. The live stage show actually started at 10 pm where 7000 odd Burmese workers gathered to support the famous Burmese Singer, had to wait for three hours.

Some of the workers were arrested by the Thai Police on the way back home as it was late. At least one worker was beaten by the Thai police during the performance.

After the show R Zanie refused to be interviewed by the press. He has told the press that he may be in trouble if he had granted the interview. He however said that those who were brave enough to follow with him to Myawaddy, ( Burmese Junta Territory) would be allowed to interview.

Poem “Man is”…by Generation Wave, Call for Democracy in Burma.

Man is…

Born to great sights

To immerse oneself in dignity

Chest puffed out, head thrust high in the air

Knowledge of freedom is empowering

Yet instead we succumb to servitude

Crouching and meekly folding our limbs, defeated.

Eyes cast downward, hearts in the mud

Dignity lost and unredeemed.

Man is…

created with a fierce need to oppose oppression

to welcome progress with embracing arms.

Why put ourselves through this travesty

to grind away at our very being

When dear comrades, it is much easier to stretch our legs and arms,

stand upright and join the glorious march for dignity and democracy?

Generation Wave
