Straight to the point
• A SHAM TRIAL
The military junta is at it again in Myanmar, going after democracy advocate and Nobel Peace Prize winner Aung San Suu Kyi just days before her latest detention sentence was to expire. After an American man visited Ms. Suu Kyi's home and spoke with her, she was arrested.
The charge? Violating the conditions of her house arrest by sheltering the American. Ms. Suu Kyi has been in detention 13 of the last 19 years after her party won the national election in 1990. The generals are afraid of her because she is beloved by her countrymen and symbolizes their quest for freedom.
It will be no surprise if the junta finds another excuse to keep Ms. Suu Kyi under house arrest. The generals seem impervious to international sanctions and other pressures to unshackle Ms. Suu Kyi and Myanmar's suffering people. But that doesn't mean any country should ease up on the military autocrats. Ms. Suu Kyi needs every bit of international support and attention possible to keep her, if not free, at least safe.
Where there's political will, there is a way
政治的な意思がある一方、方法がある
စစ္မွန္တဲ့ခိုင္မာတဲ့နိုင္ငံေရးခံယူခ်က္ရိွရင္ႀကိဳးစားမႈရိွရင္ နိုင္ငံေရးအေျဖ
ထြက္ရပ္လမ္းဟာေသခ်ာေပါက္ရိွတယ္
