ခင္ဗ်ားဟာ က်ေနာ္တို႔စာေတြအားလံုးကို နားလည္ေအာင္မဖတ္ဘူးဆိုတာ က်ေနာ္ေၿပာခဲ့တာပဲ။
က်ေနာ္ေဆြးေႏြးတဲ့အထဲမွာ၊ ဦးေက်ာ္ၿငိမ္းနဲ႔ကြန္ၿမဴနစ္ေတြကိစၥပါလို႔လား။
ဒါေတြကိုက်ေနာ္တို႔လည္းစိတ္မဝင္စားဘူး။အထူးသၿဖင့္စစ္ေအးတိုက္ပြဲအခင္းအက်င္းထဲမွာ
ရပ္တည္ေနတဲ့သူေတြအားလံုးကိုစိတ္မဝင္စားဘူး။အခ်ိန္ကုန္တယ္။
ဒီႀကားထဲခင္ဗ်ားက ဒါေတြပဲၿပန္လာတင္ေနေတာ့ ေဆြးေႏြးတဲ့အေႀကာင္းအရာေတြက
တၿခားလမ္းကိုေရာက္သြားတယ္။
က်ေနာ့ေဆာင္းပါးေတြဖတ္တယ္ဆိုရင္
က်ေနာ့ရပ္တည္ခ်က္ကိုရွင္းရွင္းလင္းလင္းသိဖို႔ေကာင္းတယ္။
ခင္ဗ်ားေသခ်ာမဖတ္လို႔ ခင္ဗ်ားစာမွာ ထင္သလိုေလွ်ာက္ေရးေနတာေပါ့။ မဟုတ္ဘူးလား။
ခင္ဗ်ားစာေတြကိုဖတ္ႀကည့္ၿခင္းအားၿဖင့္လည္းခင္ဗ်ားဘာကိုေရးေနတယ္ဆိုတာ
က်ေနာ္ခန္႔မွန္းမိၿပီးသားပါ။ ကေလးေတြမဟုတ္ဘူး။ အဲ့သလို ကုိယ္မသိတဲ့အရာေတြကိုေလွ်ာက္ေရး၊
ေလွ်ာက္ေၿပာေနတဲ့ကိစၥေတြကိုဖတ္ရမဲ့အခ်ိန္ေတြအတြက္လည္းႏွေမ်ာတယ္ဗ်ာ။
ညီညြတ္ေရးကိုခင္ဗ်ားအခုေၿပာေနတာေတြထက္၊ ေဒၚစုမေၿပာခင္ကထက္
က်ေနာ္တို႔တေတြေလးေလးနက္နက္နားလည္ၿပီးသားပါ၊ ေဒၚစုတို႔ႀကီးေလးႀကီးကို
၈၈ ေက်ာင္းသားေတြက ညီညြတ္ေရးအတြက္ဖိအားေပးေခၚတဲ့တယ္ဆိုတဲ့သမိုင္းကိုၿပန္ေလ့လာပါအံုး။
ေဒၚစုေၿပာမွညီညြတ္ေရးကိုနားလည္သြားတယ္ဆိုတဲ့သူေတြထဲမွာ က်ေနာ္တို႔တေတြမပါဘူး။
တေလ်ာက္လံုးဒီညီညြတ္ေရးေပၚမွာအေၿခခံၿပီးတုိက္လာခဲ့တာပဲမဟုတ္လား။
နဝတ က ေအာက္တန္းက်ေမာက္မာေနသေရြ႕၊ေမာက္မာေခါင္းမာေနသေရြ႕၊
အမ်ိဳးသားၿပန္လည္သင့္ၿမတ္ေရးဆိုတာဘယ္ေတာ့မွမရဘူး။
ေအး-က်ေနာ္တို႔ညီညြတ္ေရးတည္ေဆာက္တယ္ဆိုတာလည္းအဲ့ဒီလိုပဲ။
ကိုယ့္ကိုယ္ကို ပညာတတ္ဆိုၿပီးဘဝင္ၿမင့္၊ေအာက္ေၿခလြတ္ေနတဲ့သူေတြက
သူမ်ားကိုအထင္ေသးေနေသးသေရြ႕ ညီညြတ္ေရးတည္ေဆာက္လို႔ဘယ္ေတာ့မွမရဘူး။
ၿခစားေနတဲ့သူကလူတန္းစားတရပ္ၿဖစ္လာၿပီး၊တကယ္ရင္းခဲ့ရသူေတြက ငတ္ေနတဲ့အေနအထားမွာလည္း
ၿပႆနာေတြကဆက္ရိွေနအံုးမွာအမွန္ပဲ။
က်ေနာ္စာေရးဆရာပါ။ ခင္ဗ်ားေရးတဲ့အသံုးအႏႈန္းေတြကိုတေႀကာင္းခ်င္းၿပန္စစ္ပါအံုး။
ဘာေတြကိုေဖာ့ေရးၿပီး၊ဘာေတြကိုပင္းေရးထားသလဲဆိုတာဗမာစာဖတ္သူတိုင္းနားလည္ပါတယ္။
အဲ့ဒါကခင္ဗ်ားအခြင့္အေရးမို႔၊ခင္ဗ်ားေရးႏိုင္တယ္ဆိုေပမဲ့ အဲ့သလိုအသံုးအႏႈန္းေတြအယူအဆေတြနဲ႔
ႀကားကေနဝင္ပါလို႔မရဘူးေလ။ ႏွစ္ဘက္လံုးဆီက ညီညြတ္ေရးလိုခ်င္ရင္လည္း၊ၿဖစ္ေနတဲ့ကိစၥေတြကို
သိရတယ္။ နားလည္ရတယ္။ ႀကားကေနၿဖတ္ၿဖတ္ဝင္ၿပီး ကိုယ္ဂဂဏဏမသိတဲ့အေႀကာင္းအရာေတြမွာ စာအရွည္ႀကီးေလွ်ာက္ေရးေနေတာ့အာရံုေနာက္တာအမွန္ပဲ။
ကြဲၿပားတဲ့အယူအဆေတြကိုၿငင္းခုန္ႀကတာလက္ခံတယ္။အေမရိကန္စာသင္ေက်ာင္းေတြမွာ၊
စာတမ္းေတြမွာ ဒီလိုအခ်က္ေတြကိုပဲေရးႀကရတာပဲ။ ဘာလို႔ႏိုင္ငံေရးလုပ္ခါစလူငယ္တေယာက္လိုုလာရွင္းၿပေနတာလဲ။
ဒါေပမဲ့ ကြဲၿပားမႈကိုတင္တဲ့အခါ၊ ေစာ္ကားမႈကိုေရွာင္က်ဥ္ရတယ္။ ဒီမုိကေရစီႏိုင္ငံေတြမွာ ေစာ္ကားတာေတြကိုလြတ္လြတ္လပ္လပ္လုပ္လို႔မရဘူး။
စာေတြကိုေသခ်ာၿပန္ဖတ္ပါအံုးလို႔တိုက္တြန္းပါရေစ။
ေနာက္တခုက ကိုယ္ညႊန္းတဲ့စာမ်က္ႏွာ၊အခ်က္အလက္ေတြကိုခိုင္ရတယ္။
မခုိင္လို႔တဘက္ကေထာက္ၿပတာကို စိတ္ဆိုးရင္ အဲ့ဒါဒီမိုကေရစီသေဘာကိုနားမလည္သူၿဖစ္တယ္။
ဒီအခ်ိန္ဟာဘယ္ေလာက္အေရးႀကီးတယ္ဆိုတာ က်ေနာ္တို႔သိတယ္။
က်ေနာ္တို႔ၿဖတ္ခဲ့တာအႏွစ္(၂၀)ေက်ာ္ၿပီ။ ညီညြတ္ေရးဆိုတာ
အေသြးအသားထဲကလိုလိုခ်င္ခ်င္ရိွမွရတဲ့အရာၿဇစ္တယ္။
ဘဝတခုလံုးေပးလာတဲ့သူေတြအမ်ားႀကီးပါ။ ညီညြတ္ေရးကို ခင္ဗ်ားလိုခ်င္တာထက္က်ေနာ္တို႔ပိုလိုခ်င္တယ္ဆုိတာစြဲစြဲၿမဲၿမဲမွတ္ထားပါ။
ဒါေပမဲ့ က်ေနာ္ေၿပာခဲ့သလိုပဲ၊ ေမာက္မာတဲ့လူေတြ၊
ဘဝင္ေလဟပ္ေနတဲ့ေလသံေတြ၊ဆရာႀကီးဂိုက္ဖမ္းေနတဲ့လူေတြနဲ႔
ညီညြတ္ေရးလုပ္ဖို႔ဆိုတာလြယ္တဲ့အရာမဟုတ္ဘူး။
ေက်ာင္းသားေတြကိုေစာ္ကားေနတဲ့ဘဝင္ရူးကိုလည္းညီညြတ္ေရးလုပ္စရာအေႀကာင္းမရိွပါ။
က်ေနာ့္အေၿဖကိုသိၿပီးၿပီဆိုေတာ့ ခင္ဗ်ားအေနနဲ႔ဆက္ေမွ်ာ္လင့္စရာမလိုေတာ့ဘူးလို႔ထင္ပါတယ္။
ေနာက္တခု၊
(ခင္ဗ်ားအဝန္းအဝိုင္းမွာေတြ႔ခဲ့ရတဲ့လူေတြေလာက္ကိုႀကည့္ၿပီး လူတိုင္းစာမဖတ္ဘူးမထင္ေလနဲ႔။
ဗမာၿပည္အေမရိကန္သံရံုးမွာႀကိဳးစားေလ့လာေနတဲ့လူငယ္ေတြ၊ ႏိုင္ငံတကာမွာ
ေက်ာင္းတက္ေနတဲ့မ်ိဳးဆက္သစ္ေတြကိုၿမင္ရင္ ခင္ဗ်ားအယူအဆမွားသြားတယ္
ဆိုတာခ်က္ခ်င္းသိသြားမယ္)
ခင္ဗ်ားလည္းစာဖတ္တာဝါသနာပါတယ္ဆိုရင္ကစ္ဆင္းဂ်ားရဲ႕ဒီပလိုေမစီစာအုပ္ၿဖစ္ၿဖစ္

နားလည္သြားပါလိမ့္မယ္။ ဘယ္လိုလူေတြေႀကာင့္ ေတြ႔ဆံုေဆြးေႏြးေရးေတြပ်က္ခဲ့တယ္ဆိုတာေတြလည္း
သေဘာေပါက္သြားပါလိမ့္မယ္။
ေနာက္ဆံုးေၿပာခ်င္တာကေတာ့၊ညီညြတ္ေရးကို ခင္ဗ်ားလို၊ လိုခ်င္တဲ့သူေတြခ်ည္းပါ။
အေတြ႕အႀကံဳအရနားလည္သူေတြခ်ည္းပါ။
ႏိုင္ငံတကာက ဗမာၿပည္လႈပ္ရွားမႈေတြကိုဘယ္လိုသံုးသပ္ေနတယ္ဆိုတာလည္း
အၿမဲမၿပတ္ဖတ္ေနႀကတဲ့သူေတြပါ။၊ကြဲၿပဲမႈေတြထဲမွာ ေပ်ာ္ေနႀကတဲ့သူေတြမဟုတ္သလို၊စီးပြားလာရွာေနသူေနေတြလည္းမဟုတ္ပါ။
ဒီကိစၥကို ဒီေလာက္နဲ႔ရပ္ႀကရေအာင္ပါ။ က်ေနာ္ရပ္တည္ခ်က္၊သေဘာထားကိုလံုလံုေလာက္ေလာက္ေၿပာခဲ့ၿပီလို႔
ထင္ပါတယ္။ ဂ်ပန္မွာ ခင္ဗ်ားက ဦေဆာင္ၿပီးညီညြတ္ေရးတည္ေဆာက္ႏိုင္ပါေစဗ်ား။

Dear Ko AMW,
I am OK to be stupid and idiot for congratulating to someone who is trying to be reconciliatory. :-)
I also agree your points on things to be changed for building unity.
Be the change yourself to the change you want to see is important if I re-phrase from what you said.
Reading the different perspectives of event or a history is very educating if it is objective based.
Please don't think that supporting that particular writing is not standing on one side.
As i said before, I appreciate your articles too.
Be happy and peaceful.
best,

က်ေနာ့သူငယ္ခ်င္း ေဆးေက်ာင္းသားေတြေၿပာၿပတဲ့အၿဖစ္အပ်က္တခုပါ။
တေန႔ေတာ့ သူတို႔တေတြ၊ အရူးေဆးရံုကို အလည္ေရာက္သြားႀကတယ္။
အေပါက္ဝမွာ သူတို႔ကို ႀကိဳေနတဲ့ ဆရာဝန္တေယာက္က

The Lady: Aung San Suu Kyi's Fight for Freedom
By Andrew Marshall / Bangkok Monday, Dec. 27, 2010
On Nov. 13, Burmese democracy icon Aung San Suu Kyi walked free from seven years of house arrest in Rangoon. She called her son Kim Aris. She greeted supporters outside her lakeside home. Then she got on a plane to Bangkok where, on a stage erected in a parking lot on the city's outskirts, she appeared in a film made by a bearded Frenchman called Luc Something.
That's what some of the 2,000 Thai extras on the set of Luc Besson's latest movie seem to think, and their confusion is forgivable. Since filming of his biopic The Lady began in Thailand in mid-October, everyone from Besson to best boy has been perplexed by how often art has imitated life — and vice versa. (See a Q&A with Luc Besson.)
Take Malaysian-born actress Michelle Yeoh, the former Bond girl who plays Suu Kyi. Yeoh not only strongly resembles the lissome Nobel laureate, but also occupies the part so convincingly that Besson calls it "perfect for her." "From the moment I saw this actress," says Thein Win, a Burmese actor playing a member of Suu Kyi's National League for Democracy (NLD), "I thought, 'She is Daw [Aunt] Suu.'"
Movie magic and reality merged again when the junta finally allowed Suu Kyi to walk free. Besson had just re-created her release from a previous spell of house arrest, when she steps out of her Rangoon home to cheers from a crowd of supporters. Two days later, Besson and his cast sat in Yeoh's Bangkok hotel suite to watch a near identical scene — this one for real — play out on TV. "It was surreal," says Besson. Also in the room was Aris, chatting on the phone to his mother: "I'm here with Michelle. Yes, the woman playing you." Then the champagne started flowing. "It was so sweet," says Yeoh. "We were all very privileged to share that moment with him." (Read a Q&A with Yeoh.)
Both celebrated and scorned for his popular success, Besson has in recent years produced more films than he has directed. Then Yeoh showed him a screenplay about Suu Kyi, sent to her by British writer Rebecca Frayn. "The more I read, the more I wanted to direct it myself," says Besson. "Her life story is amazing. It's almost Shakespearean."
After studying at Oxford University, Suu Kyi married academic Michael Aris and raised their two sons in England. She returned to Burma in 1988 to nurse her ailing mother and was swept up in the democracy protests, becoming the symbol of the Burmese people's struggle against military rule. She later spent years in prison or under house arrest. When Aris was dying of cancer in 1999, the junta denied him entry to Burma to see his wife for the last time, while Suu Kyi refused to leave for fear she couldn't return. "She has to be an icon ... And she has to be a wife and mother," says Besson. "That's what makes her character so interesting and rich to film." (See pictures: "Freedom for Burma's Aung San Suu Kyi.")
The Lady's Thailand scenes have to be shot discreetly, mainly, it seems, to mollify the Thai government, which is forging closer relations with Burma's generals. To avoid offending the authorities, who would possibly order the shoot shut down, scripts carry a deliberately insipid working title (Dans la Lumière) that gives no clue to their content. Cast and crew have signed confidentiality agreements. And TIME is the only publication allowed on the set.
If secrecy is one obsession, authenticity is another. The sets — Suu Kyi's dilapidated house, her cell in Rangoon's Insein jail — are the results of meticulous research; many of the cast are from Burma. The realism often overwhelms exiled actor Thein Win, who not only plays an NLD member but is one. He attended party meetings with Suu Kyi before fleeing Burma in 1991. And he wept real tears during the scene in which Yeoh as Suu Kyi bids farewell to her sons before her incarceration. "It was heartbreaking to watch," Thein Win says. (See the Top 10 movies of 2010.)
Later, during a break in filming, Yeoh would fly to Rangoon to meet with Suu Kyi. "It was like visiting a family friend," Yeoh says. "She held my hand. I was mesmerized." One of Besson's motivations for making The Lady was to publicize Suu Kyi's plight. With her release, "She doesn't need us for now," he jokes. But he hopes his film will remind audiences that "real democracy" is still a long way off. If you live in Burma, it's a safe bet that The Lady won't be showing in a cinema near you.

Suu Kyi Rules Out Replacing NLD Leadership
By SAW YAN NAING Saturday, December 18, 2010
Burmese pro-democracy leader Aung San Suu Kyi ruled out a reorganization of her National League for Democracy (NLD) party to replace elderly leaders with younger members, according to a report by Agence France-Presse on Friday.
“We are not going to ask our older leaders to leave because they want to serve as long as they have strength to serve the party and I think that is a good thing to be encouraged,” Suu Kyi was quoted as saying in an AFP interview at the party’s headquarters on Friday.
Suu Kyi also said that she and other NLD senior leaders are not going to reorganize the party’s Central Executive Committee (CEC) by replacing old leaders with youth leaders.
Apart from Suu Kyi, who is 65, many NLD senior leaders are in their 80s and 90s and some are in poor health. Six of the party's CEC members are not well, according to NLD sources. NLD Chairman Aung Shwe is 92, Vice-Chairman Tin Oo is 82 and Secretary U Lwin is 86.
Suu Kyi also plans to meet with Burmese youth activists next week, although no specific date for the meeting has been set.
Myo Yan Naung Thein, a Burmese activist and member of the 88 Generation Student group who will be among those attending the meeting, said that he will report to Suu Kyi about the role of young activists, including NLD youth members.
He said that young Burmese activists, including NLD youth members, should be entrusted with more duties and should also be given a chance to participate in the decision-making process alongside more experienced leaders.
“In fact, since we are in our 40s, we should be in executive roles. We should be decision makers and the elder leaders should be our advisors,” he said, speaking to The Irrawaddy on Saturday.
Some young activists aren't very clear about their role because they haven't been assigned any specific tasks or given any formal positions by their leaders, he added.
Yar Zar, an NLD youth member, said he also hoped to see a younger generation of activists playing a more prominent role in Burmese politics, but agreed with Suu Kyi that older leaders still have important contributions to make.
“I agree with her because the NLD's senior leaders have shown their strong commitment to the party despite the many difficulties they have faced over the past 20 years,” he said.
“But I think these leaders should join hands with us and guide us. They should allow younger members to join with them because we now need strength for change,” said Yar Zar.

Than Shwe Vows to Build Strong, Modern Military
By WAI MOE Saturday, December 18, 2010
Snr-Gen Than Shwe, the head of Burma's ruling junta, told cadets at an elite military academy on Friday that the country could defeat its enemies by exploiting their weaknesses and developing a strong, modern armed forces, according to the state-run New Light of Myanmar.
“The aim of the Tatmadaw is the building of a strong and capable modern patriotic Tatmadaw,” said Than Shwe, referring to the Burmese armed forces.
Speaking to graduates of the 13th intake of the Defense Services Technological Academy in Maymyo, he also said that some countries were developing weapons of mass destruction, but this did not necessarily give them an overwhelming advantage in warfare.
“In today’s world, efforts are being made to utilize new and powerful weapons of mass destruction to achieve land, sea and air supremacy as well as dominance in space and to exploit it in warfare,” he said.
However, he added, there was no need to worry about such advanced arms because “strong points are always accompanied by weakness and shortcoming.”
In his speech—the second he has made in Maymyo in the past week—he emphasized the word “we” to show the importance of solidarity within the armed forces.
He did not specify who Burma's “enemies” are, but his mention of weapons of mass destruction suggests that he had an external threat in mind, rather than one of the many ethnic armies in the country that have been fighting for greater autonomy for decades.
Burma does not face any immediate threat from its more powerful neighbors, China and India, but the Burmese junta leadership is believed to fear the possibility of an invasion by the US, which has expressed growing concern about rumors the regime is developing nuclear weapons.
Than Shwe has been on a year-end tour along with members of his family and key senior military officials since Dec. 11.

Inside KNLA Brigade 5 with the Free Burma Rangers
By ALEX ELLGEE Saturday, December 18, 2010
Saw Plo was returning from working in his paddy fields when a young boy from the village ran up and told him to pack his things quickly. The village leadership had received word the Burmese army was approaching, and with expertise acquired from a lifetime of fleeing, all the residents of Tha Da Der village were soon hiding in the jungle.
Throughout the night Saw Plo saw smoke rise over the horizon while the sound of mortars echoed through the valley. “I knew our lives were being burned to the ground,” says the wiry middle-aged man. Sure enough, when they finally returned to the village, the remains of their church, school and over thirty-five homes were still smoldering.
Slide Show (View)
“It was one of the best churches in Karen State,” Saw Plo said.
Also burned was any livestock left in the village—part of the military government's brutal “four cuts policy” intended to disconnect the Karen resistance army from the villager’s support base, a policy that has caused thousands to suffer human rights abuses and displacement.
As the smoke and stench of rotting carcasses drifted through the burned down homes, the villagers questioned their ability to move on but ultimately found the strength and resources to rebuild their lives.
“At first we asked ourselves, how can we go back, how can we rebuild our lives again?” said Saw Plo, now sitting in his new home in Tha Da Der, which has returned to a degree of normality. “Then we prayed for the ability to go on and slowly we all lifted ourselves out of misery and found the help and courage to continue.”
The help and courage came not only from their resilience and determination to carry on despite repeated attempts by the military regime to wipe out resistant Karen. It also came from the white bags mounted on villagers’ backs which passed this reporter by as we made our way through the jungle to Tha Da Der.
Following two days of creeping up the Salween River past Burmese and Thai army checkpoints, and an eight-hour trek through the rolling Karen hills, we arrived at the outskirts of Tha Da Der. As the sun set over the paddy fields, men on horses approached us and human-made animal noises were exchanged.
“Welcome to the circus,” said the director of Free Burma Rangers (FBR) as he greeted us. “It is as unpredictable here as it is any where else in Burma.”
The director is better known locally by his Karen name: Tha-U-Wa-A-Pa, meaning “The Father of the White Monkey,” with White Monkey being the name he gave his daughter. Along with his wife, daughter and two other young children, they live and work for half the year in war-torn Karen State.
Having retired from the Special Forces, Tha-U-Wa-A-Pa worked with the Wa until he was warned by the regime that if he ever came back to Burma he would never leave. Despite the threat, he did return in 1996, this time to Rangoon to meet Aung San Suu Kyi following her release from house arrest.
“I was so impressed by her humility, her strength and her love for her people,” he said while sitting around a table in the FBR temporary camp. “She asked me to help her people unify the ethnics and pray—so that is what I did.”
Following the visit with Suu Kyi, Tha-U-Wa-A-Pa was able to organize a meeting between 13 leaders of various ethnic groups who all signed an agreement saying they supported Suu Kyi as the democratic leader of Karen State.
Just as the agreement had been signed, the Burmese army launched an offensive against the Karen National Liberation Army (KNLA), displacing thousands of villagers. Hearing the news he drove down to a spot near Mae Sot where the refugees were flooding over the border into Thailand.
Amid the chaos was Tha-U-Wa-A-Pa's first meeting with Eliya Samson, a KNLA soldier and now the FBR’s chief medic, who helped him distribute medicine.
“Oppression is wrong and I want to do something about it. Shooting and raping young girls is just wrong, children watching their parents being killed point blank is wrong. I just saw the situation in Burma and I wanted to do something,” said Tha-U-Wa-A-Pa. “I had no weapon, little money and no power but I thought if I could help one person then they would be happy and I would be happy.”
Despite his modest ambitions, Tha-U-Wa-A-Pa and Eliya went on to help thousands of villagers as they traveled around Karen State. “We would travel with four or five people, fill our backpacks up with medicine. We were like ants,” he said. “When the medicine had run out, they would come back to the border, stock up, and just go again, and again, sending out reports whenever they could.”
From one initial team of “rangers,” the FBR has expanded over the last 13 years to 53 and the number continues to grow. Tha-U-Wa-A-Pa is more than eager to point out that the main work is done by over 250 local staff members, who risk their lives on a daily basis to help their people in the war-torn ethnic areas.
“Without the help of FBR we would still be hiding in the jungle, or maybe we would have given up our homeland for life in a Thai refugee camp,” said Saw Plo while looking over the ashes of his old house.
“They gave us supplies, a school and the hope to carry on.”
Around the temporary FBR camp at the foot of Tha Da Der, the mood was high. Medics joked near bamboo groves as they organized and distributed medicine from the white bags recently brought in preparation for a two-month relief mission.
Tha Da Der is the first destination after a two-month, multi-ethnic training course deep inside Karen State for 10 new teams and seven existing teams. The extremely diverse group includes teams from the Kachin, Karen, Karenni, Lahu, Mon and Pa-O ethnic groups.
One team had traveled all the way from Nagaland to attend the training.
Sitting in the “Naga camp,” made up of a couple of hammocks and a dying fire and based on the fringes of paddy fields, their team leader explained what motivated him to travel so far.
“It took us over a month to get here, sometimes traveling in dangerous conditions and always facing difficulties with Burmese immigration,” he said, adding that he wishes to remain anonymous so his team can travel safely back across Burma.
“We came here to learn many skills so we can go back and help our people who are suffering as a result of terrible education and health services in the rural areas,” he said.
The rangers are all handpicked by leaders in their communities and represent the next generation of ethnic leadership. Sunshine, a Karenni medic, said one of the best things about the training was the closeness he got from working alongside other medics.
“We learned more about each other's issues and will be able to work closely in the future with respect and understanding that we might have otherwise not had,” he said. “This is important for the future of the ethnic populations.”
The next day, automatic gunfire and the explosion of a grenade launcher awoke the valley, a reminder that the war and the KNLA front line outposts, which watch over every move of the Burmese army, are close by.
A group of KNLA soldiers had come across a patrol of government troops. When they spotted the KNLA soldiers, the Burmese army fired but hit no one.
“It’s not a big deal for us and the villagers,” KNLA Brigade 5 commander Gen Baw Kyaw told The Irrawaddy. “For the villagers, its like a motorbike crash in Chiang Mai—we hear it all the time.”
Since the offensive in July on Tha Da Der, Baw Kyaw says there has been little fighting. When this reporter followed a KNLA company to the front line for a recon on a Burmese army camp, it was clear the number of soldiers stationed there had dropped significantly— before there were around 200, now there are a maximum of 40.
“Many of the government soldiers had been taken away to the cities for election security,” said Baw Kyaw while overlooking the Burma army camp. “We don’t know when they’ll be back but I am sure they will.”
Reports have recently circulated that the Burmese regime has been working alongside the Sri Lankan government to create a plan to successfully wipe out the KNLA. Baw Kyaw reported that the Burmese army has been clearing helipads in KNLA Brigade 5 territory, but said, “We are worried, but not massively. We have a plan for everything and when they come, we will be ready and will shoot them down.”
Despite the ongoing war and lurking dangers, the FBR has created a pocket of happiness for the many people who have flocked from villages in the surrounding areas to see them. In a patch of shade on a paddy field, the “Good Life Club” begins.
The club is a side project created by Tha-U-Wa-A-Pa’s wife to bring a day of happiness to children from across Karen State who have gone through traumatic experiences.
A gunshot signaled the beginning of the “Run for Relief,” an international charity event which the rangers organized for the children here. Afterward, rangers from all the ethnic teams took turns organizing games and performances. The smiles on the children's faces remained wide throughout the day.
On the paddy field next door, a temporary clinic was set up to treat any villagers who turned up. The clinic was separated into three sections using tarp and sheets: a surgery department, a general treatment area and a pregnancy care section. From early morning until the afternoon, a steady of flow of villagers came to visit the medics.
“It's a blessing FBR have come to us,” said one mother of three children as she left the clinic. “I had a tooth removed and my children had a fun day, which is good for them.”
On return to the camp, sobering reports came through from KNLA Brigade 6 via satellite link. Fighting between the Burma army and a new KNLA / Democratic Karen Buddhist Army (DKBA) coalition had led to an increase in the number of displaced people fleeing from incoming government troop mortar fire.
Golden Love, the KNLA Brigade 6 FBR team leader, sent in a report that said they are constantly trying to move the villagers to safety, but he does not want them to lose their crops.
“We know that they trust and depend on us,” he said in the report, explaining they are afraid that if they stay, the Burmese will take them as porters or kill them. “It is a difficult situation for us to make a decision. We are thinking about their future. They did not finish their crops at all, so how will they go on next year unless they have rice?”
Along with the report, the team attached photos from the last 24 hours showing villagers fleeing fighting and hiding in the jungle. Every FBR team has a cameraman, which is part of the organization's mission to document human rights abuses and send them out to the world.
Commenting on this, Baw Kyaw said, “FBR has brought technology to the Karen people and enabled us to tell the world what is going on.”
“If they hadn’t come, we would have faced so many more human rights abuses,” he said.
Despite the hope many of the Karen people have placed in FBR’s operations, Tha-U-Wa-A-Pa remains humble.
“We’re just tiny,” he said. “We’re really more of a disorganization. We’re just an organization out of necessity.”
Despite his humility, FBR supplied medicine to over 100,000 patients last year and it’s clear FBR is more than just an aid distributor; the rangers are laying down the foundations for inter-ethnic cooperation, which has already begun to build “the tower,” which represents a new Burma in Tha-U-Wa-A-Pa’s “vision for Burma.” In it, the ethnic groups will continue to survive and build up education, health and political structures until the dictator’s fall.
“When the time comes, and the dictators' fortress has fallen due to its bad foundations, we will stretch out our hands and save them from drowning and welcome them in,” Tha-U-Wa-A-Pa said.
As the sun rose over the paddy fields, the various teams made their way out to their designated areas for their first relief missions. Packs were full and there was laughing aplenty. It was evident they were eager to test out their new skills and help their people.
One Karen medic turned to this reporter.
“We may be few, but we will grow and grow, and do great things for our people,” she said, smiling.

Former First Lady Laura Bush speaks by phone with Suu Kyi
DALLAS : Former U.S. First Lady Laura Bush on Friday spoke by telephone with pro-democracy leader and Nobel Peace Prize winner Aung San Suu Kyi, who was released from home arrest in Myanmar (Burma) last month.
It was the first time that Laura Bush spoke with Suu Kyi, who won the Nobel Peace Prize in 1991 for her non-violent struggle for democracy and human rights. She is sometimes compared with former South African leader Nelson Mandela as an international symbol of heroic and peaceful resistance in the face of oppression.
"I was heartened to hear the strong voice and enthusiasm of such an inspiring champion for human freedom," Laura Bush said after the telephone call. "Daw Suu has been under house arrest off and on for the last 20 years, but she never lost hope or stopped believing in a free Burma."
Laura Bush, whose husband served as U.S. President between January 2001 and January 2009, further said that she looked forward to the day when Suu Kyi and other people of her country can live in freedom.
In 1988, Suu Kyi returned to Myanmar after a period overseas but was quickly put under house arrest in Rangoon as the junta declared a martial law. Two years later, Myanmar held its first general election since 1960. The polls were by far won by Suu Kyi of the now dissolved National League for Democracy (NLD), but the results were ignored by the military junta and has since ruled the country.
Years later, in 1995, Suu Kyi was released from her house arrest in Rangoon although her movements remained restricted. She eventually was placed under house arrest again from September 2000 to May 2002 after she traveled to the city of Mandalay, in defiance of her travel restrictions.
Her release in May 2002 was unconditionally, but just a year later she was arrested after a clash between NLD supporters and a government-backed mob. After several months in prison, in September 2003, Suu Kyi was put under house arrest again.
Ever since, up until last month, she remained under house arrest but briefly appeared in public in September 2007 to greet protesting Buddhist monks. In May 2009, she was charged with breaking detention rules after an American swam to her compound and broke into her house even though he had not been invited by Suu Kyi.
After a trial that was widely condemned by the international community, Suu Kyi was convicted and sentenced in August 2009 to a further 18 months of house arrest. The term of this house arrest expired last month.
Days before Suu Kyi's release last month, Myanmar held its first national elections in 20 years even though foreign journalists were barred from entering the country and thousands of opponents remain imprisoned. As was expected, the military-backed Union Solidarity and Development Party 'won' the election.

Myanmar's Links With Pyongyang Stir Nuclear Fears
By JAY SOLOMON
WASHINGTON—The United Nations' nuclear watchdog has written to Myanmar's military government in recent weeks asking to visit sites in the Southeast Asian country allegedly involved in clandestine nuclear activities, according to officials briefed on the correspondence.
The International Atomic Energy Agency's action comes amid rising fears in Washington and Asian capitals that Myanmar's generals have significantly increased their military cooperation with North Korea, possibly on nuclear technologies, as well as on long-range missiles and underground bunkers.
Concerns about North Korea's nuclear activities have heightened in recent weeks, as Pyongyang unveiled to a visiting American scientist thousands of new centrifuge machines used for enriching uranium. The Obama administration worries this machinery could be used by North Korea to produce more atomic weapons, but also could be sold to third countries such as Myanmar for hard currency.
U.S. officials have charged Myanmar, also called Burma, with being a key transshipment point for North Korean arms going to countries such as Iran and Syria. Washington has interdicted a number of North Korean ships and cargo planes in recent years that were allegedly moving missile parts and small arms through Myanmar's waters and airspace.
Suspect Sites
The IAEA's Department of Safeguards, headed by Belgian Herman Nackaerts, wrote the letter to Myanmar's government seeking to visit suspect sites, according to these officials. It follows at least two other letters the IAEA has written to Myanmar in recent months, seeking clarification of its alleged efforts to develop nuclear technologies at sites in the country's north.
"[The IAEA] is now officially asking for a visit," said one of the officials briefed on the letter.
Myanmar is a signatory to the U.N.'s Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty and has a limited cooperation agreement with the IAEA focused on developing nuclear science. But the U.N. agency has only limited powers to demand access to Myanmar: the country has no declared nuclear facilities.
If Myanmar doesn't cooperate, it is likely to face more international pressure. The Obama administration has pressed Myanmar's military junta to cooperate with agency inspectors.
Myanmar's mission to the U.N. declined this week to comment on the IAEA request. The government has previously denied that it has any nuclear program or military cooperation with North Korea.
"No activity related to uranium conversion, enrichment, reactor construction or operation has been carried out in the past, is ongoing or is planned for the future," Myanmar state media quoted the country's ambassador to the IAEA, Win Tin, as writing to the agency in June.
In May, a former IAEA safeguards inspector, Robert Kelley, wrote a detailed report arguing that Myanmar was building factories north of its cultural capital, Mandalay, focused on producing nuclear fuel.
His report was based on the testimony of a former Burmese military officer and documents compiled by a dissident group, the Democratic Voice of Burma. Mr. Kelley argued that the photographs and satellite imagery were consistent and indicated that Myanmar was building factories to convert uranium ore into a powder form, known as yellowcake, then into uranium hexafluoride for enrichment, and finally into uranium metal. Uranium metal when fitted onto a warhead and detonated can create the fissile reaction of an atomic weapon.
"Burma is developing uranium processing equipment in secret that could legally be developed in the open if reported to the IAEA," Mr. Kelley said in an interview. "A secret program must only be for weapons."
Leaked U.S. diplomatic cables recently published by the website WikiLeaks document concerns inside successive American administrations about Myanmar's weapons programs and alleged cooperation with North Korea.
The documents recount meetings between U.S. diplomats and Myanmar-based businessmen who detail suspicious shipments they believe were materials being used to build a nuclear reactor. Another cable recounts sightings of roughly 300 North Korean workers who were allegedly building missile installations inside mountains in north-central Myanmar.
"Something is certainly happening; whether that something includes 'nukes' is a very open question which remains a very high priority for Embassy reporting," reads a cable written in November 2009 by the State Department's top diplomat in Yangon.
A number of proliferation experts and former IAEA staff have expressed skepticism about the prospect of Myanmar pursuing nuclear weapons.
They say much of the equipment allegedly being procured by Myanmar could have nonnuclear applications. They also said that testimony provided by Burmese defectors needs to be closely scrutinized, as many have political grudges against the Myanmar government. They note that much of the intelligence provided by Iraqi dissidents concerning Saddam Hussein's suspected weapons programs proved to be wrong.
"North Korea has been trying to sell missiles to Myanmar for some years...but there's no clear evidence of a nuclear program," said Mark Fitzpatrick, a former nonproliferation official in the State Department who is now at London's International Institute for Strategic Studies.
Still, Mr. Fitzpatrick and other proliferation experts are pressing the IAEA to conduct intrusive inspections as a means to clear up the heightened uncertainty surrounding Myanmar's activities. They said that, even if the country isn't pursuing a nuclear program, its alleged pursuit of missile systems and other weapons capabilities could be extremely destabilizing for Asia.

Weekly Business Roundup (December 18, 2010)

Opium Poppy Production Rises in Burma
Burma has been accused by the United Nations of dramatically raising cultivation of poppies for opium in 2010.
The area of land in Burma used for growing poppies this year increased 20 percent to over 38,000 hectares, said the UN Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC).
Poppy cultivation also increased in Thailand and Laos, said the agency.
The overall estimated value of crops this year almost doubled over 2009, from US $119 million to $219 million, said the agency in its annual report.
Poppy cultivation is still well below the record levels of the 1990s, but over the last four years it has been steadily rising, said UNODC director Yury Fedotov.
“While governments have increased their eradication efforts, the potential opium production in 2010 is estimated to have increased by approximately 75 percent when compared to 2009,” Fedotov said this week.
The UN report said poverty, instability and higher prices for processed opium on the world market had all contributed to tempting farmers to resume or start poppy growing, despite official eradication programs.
India, Asean Talks on Investment Stall over Skilled Labor Worry
Negotiations for a broad agreement on investment and freer movement of skilled labor between India and the Association of South East Asian Nations (Asean) have been suspended in dispute.
Government officials in New Delhi accused Asean of being inflexible, reported India’s Business Standard newspaper.
The agreement was meant to supplement a trade deal between the two sides already signed.
Import tariffs on a wide range of goods will be ended or reduced from 2013.
However, some Asean countries refuse to allow skilled Indian professionals such as doctors, nurses, chefs and financial services personnel to freely work across borders.
“Thailand, Indonesia and the Philippines are not ready to give us anything. On the other hand, they want us to give them those flexibilities which we have offered to other countries with which we have negotiated bilateral trade agreements,” the Business Standard quoted a senior Indian Commerce Ministry official as saying this week.
Asean has expressed concern about skilled Indians swamping member countries.
India is one of the world’s top ten exporters of services. The ten Asean countries are net importers of English language-dominated services such as telecommunications, IT, hospitality and health care.
Asean is India’s fourth largest trading partner, behind the European Union, the US and China.
Dam in China Disrupts Trade, Transport in Shan State
A hydro dam in China’s Yunnan Province is being blamed for causing severe water flow fluctuations that are disrupting trade and transport on a river in Burma’s Shan State.
Twenty villages and thousands of people are being affected by the dam along the Shweli River just inside Burma, according to a report by two NGOs.
The dam is only 30 kilometers north of the border town of Muse on the same river, known in China as the Longjiang. It began generating electricity in the middle of this year.
Its effects downstream have been monitored by a Shan environmental group called Sapawa and the Shan Women’s Action Network.
Concern about similar disruptions on the bigger Salween River flowing out of China into Burma has been voiced by other groups.
China is reviving suspended plans to dam upper reaches of the Salween, also in Yunnan.
Several hydroelectric dams on the river, known as the Nu in China, are likely to be constructed because of power shortages.
Dam development on the Chinese section of the river has twice been stopped by the central government in Beijing over environmental concerns, but these now look like being overridden, said the China Securities Journal.
The Burma Rivers Network, an environmentalist-human rights alliance of NGOs, has warned of disruptions to lives and livelihoods by any damming of the Salween.
Britain Says Burma Sanctions Still Working Despite China
The British government claims that Western sanctions are still working in Burma despite the growing economic influence wielded by China.
In answer to questions in the House of Lords, the upper house of Britain's parliament, Foreign Minister of State David Howell claimed “sanctions appear to be causing considerable difficulties, reflected in the continual, bitter complaints made by the generals and the authorities about them.”
He was answering questions from opposition party politicians suggesting that China’s growing stranglehold on Burma’s economy was undermining sanctions.
In response to Howell's claims that sanctions were “causing considerable difficulties” for the generals, the London-based human rights group Network Myanmar said this week: “The minister seems unaware that the generals are multi-millionaires.”

Suu Kyi rules out party overhaul
AFP
YANGON (AFP) – Myanmar's pro-democracy champion Aung San Suu Kyi on Friday ruled out a reorganisation of her party to replace elderly leaders with younger members.
"We are not going to ask our older leaders to leave because they want to serve as long as they have strength to serve the party and I think that is a good thing to be encouraged," Suu Kyi told AFP in an interview at the headquarters of her party, which has been officially disbanded by the junta.
Many senior members of the Nobel Peace Prize winner's National League for Democracy (NLD) are in their 80s and 90s and there had been speculation that she might overhaul its Central Executive Committee (CEC) to bring in new blood.
But Suu Kyi, who was released from seven straight years of detention last month shortly after rare elections, said she was not planning such a move.
"We are not going to reorganise the CEC or anything like that," she said. http://news.yahoo.com/s/afp/20101217/wl_asia_afp/myanmarpoliticsoppositionsuukyi

'Links Needed With Burmese Diaspora'
2010-12-16
Links between Burmese within the country and abroad are key to restoring democracy, says Aung San Suu Kyi in a program on Dec. 3.
Q: The people of Burma have complete trust in you, Daw Aung San Suu Kyi. They respect you to the fullest extent. But as for the U.N., we cannot rely on it at this moment. Therefore, can you think of a way to bring about change in our country as quickly as possible without the U.N.’s involvement? It would be good if you would outline how this could be done, so that people will support you in this effort.
A: I accept the fact that it is mainly the people themselves who will have to work in the interest of our country. But it would not be wrong also to accept whatever help the U.N. is able to give. I believe that if the Burmese people who live abroad and those who are in this country, along with all others who support us, work toward democracy together in a huge network, we will very quickly achieve success. To create that kind of network, the main thing will be to establish lines of communication. This is why we are trying as much as possible to establish lines of communication among those who live abroad and those who live here.
Q: Could you advise young people like me who are living abroad on how we can work effectively in the interest of our country?
A: I always hear about the work that you and other young Burmese living abroad are doing to help establish democracy in our country. It would be very good if you could continue these efforts. As to being more effective, each of you must think about how you can do better on your own. I think that communications among those who live abroad and those who live inside the country are very important now. Only if a huge network of communications is created will we be able to work toward democracy in our country. Therefore, I would like to request all young people to try as much as possible to establish lines of communication among those who live abroad and those who live in Burma.
Q: I am studying in the U.K. How can we be more constantly in contact with you? We would like to be more effective in our efforts for Burma.
A: All of you must work toward establishing these contacts. Those who live abroad are in a better position to create lines of communication than those inside the country. So if you want to get in touch with us, you yourselves must look for the means to do so. We, on our side, are also looking for ways to establish such contacts. Answering your question now on this radio program could be one of those ways. So please give us your different ideas. We want to hear what young people know.
Q: Now that elections have been held, the government has declared that [junta proxy party] the USDA has won, and that in three months’ time parliament will be convened. I understand that when parliament convenes, the 2008 Constitution will come into effect. How can we stop this constitution, which favors the military, from coming into effect?
A: The National League for Democracy has said right from the beginning that the way the 2008 Constitution was drawn up was not appropriate for the country. Therefore, everyone must put their efforts together to amend those articles that are not suitable. We also will continue to work toward that end. We are not saying the constitution is unsuitable out of the interest of any one organization. Some of its points are bad not only for the country, but also for the military. We would like for everyone to discuss these issues, coordinate with each other, and try to solve these problems. In this way, we will continue to work with the strong support of all the people. I believe that people like you will put all of your knowledge and physical and mental energy into helping with this work.
Q: Is it possible for our country to become completely free like other countries?
A: I believe that our country will also develop and be free like other developed countries. For this to happen, everyone in the country must have a sense of responsibility. The people must understand their own power. The people are not powerless. They must believe that they have the power, and that they must therefore put effort into their work. I cannot work by myself. Nothing important can be achieved through one person’s efforts alone. I want to say here that everyone’s efforts are needed for the country to be free, to develop, and to enjoy genuine peace and tranquility.
Q: I have seen that foreign countries are trying to help Burma achieve democracy. But I also see that not enough pressure is being put on China, which supports the Burmese government and allows it to repress the Burmese people. How do you view this issue?
A: Burma and China are neighboring countries, and it is important that friendly and close relations be maintained between neighboring countries. It will be for all of us to work toward encouraging China to help shape the future of our country correctly. In the end, though, matters pertaining to our country will depend on the efforts made by our own people. We must strive in different ways to make our big neighbor understand that the interests of the majority of the people of our country must be taken into account in order for China to maintain good, friendly, and neighborly relations with Burma.
Q: Now, at a time when we assume it won’t be long before Burma achieves democracy, I have come to think about the “gross national happiness” of the people in our country. Do you think that Bhutan’s concept of gross national happiness can be adapted into a system that can be used as a policy instrument in Burma in the future?
A: Gross national happiness is a concept that gives priority to the tranquility and happiness of the people. I think that it would be better to think of this as what everybody needs, rather than as a policy instrument. In any country, freedom, a sense of security, and economic development—when taken together—contribute to the happiness of the people … This is a method where everyone can combine their efforts in the interest of their country. So I would like to say that just as they have done this in Bhutan, there is no reason why we cannot do the same.

DKBA faction could commence guerilla war in ‘every township’
By MAUNG TOO
Published: 17 December 2010
Democratic Karen Buddhist Army’s (DKBA) battalion 902 commander Colonel Kyaw Thet in Hpalu village, where fighting recently broke out with the government, said the group will commence guerrilla warfare in “every township” if the SPDC continues its offensive against the renegade DKBA faction.
“If they won’t be considerate on us, we will commence guerrilla warfare. We have deployed our units already and we would have to proceed… in every township across Burma,” said Colonel Kyaw Thet.
“We are using the [Burmese Army’s] break from the fighting as an opportunity to reorganise our forces and restock ammunition. We have already prepared ourselves for defence.”
He said more fighting is likely in other ethnic regions due to a growing impatience with the government and that victory can be achieved if all ethnic armies coordinate and fight against the Burmese Army.
There has seemingly been repeated attempts to unite disaffected ethnic armies and rebel groups, with the All Burma Students Democrtaic Front (ABSDF) recently telling DVB that they will join with their Karen counterparts.
While there has been no fighting in Hpalu this week, at least four battles broke out between the DKBA and the Burmese army in Kyarinseikgyi, Kawkareit and Hpapun townships.
A faction of the DKBA broke ranks earlier in the year when it decided against signing the government’s border guard force (BGF) plan, which was an attempt to assimilate ethnic armed groups into the Burmese military.
There has been low intensity war fare occurring in Karen State ever since troops under Saw La Bwe a.k.a Na Kham Mwe took positions in and around the major border town of Myawaddy the day after November’s controversial election.

Myanmar establishes diplomatic ties with Oman
13:29, December 17, 2010
Myanmar has established diplomatic ties with the Sultanate of Oman at ambassadorial level, state-run newspaper the New Light of Myanmar reported Friday.
A joint communique on the establishment was signed by Myanmar's permanent representative to the United Nations and his Oman counterpart in New York on Tuesday.
Oman is the second country with which Myanmar forged diplomatic links in 2010 after Fiji.
The diplomatic establishment with Oman has brought the total number of countries in the world with which Myanmar has such links up to 102 since it regained independence in 1948.
According to the Foreign Ministry, Myanmar has so far set up embassies in 30 countries and two permanent missions in New York and Geneva, and four consulates-general in China's Hong Kong, Kunming and Nanning, and India's Calcutta, respectively.
Meanwhile, 28 countries have their embassies in Myanmar. In addition, China and India have respectively set up consulates- general in Myanmar's Mandalay, the second largest city, while Switzerland in Yangon and Bangladesh in Sittway.

Myanmar officials talked of 'going nuclear': US cable
Published on 17 December 2010 - 5:45am
Myanmar's military regime suggested six years ago it might "go nuclear" to gain the attention of the United States, according to a senior Indian diplomat quoted in a leaked US cable.
The memo from the US embassy in New Delhi also quoted the diplomat as saying Myanmar democracy icon Aung San Suu Kyi's "day has come and gone" and that only engagement with the junta could bring meaningful change.
Sanctions had isolated Myanmar, also known as Burma, and had not encouraged democratic reforms, Mitra Vasisht, joint secretary at India's Ministry of External Affairs, said after a visit by military leader Than Shwe.
"Burma is so isolated that members of Than Shwe's delegation wondered whether they would have to 'go nuclear' to get US attention, she remarked, noting the comparison to Pakistan," according to the November 2004 memo, obtained by British daily The Guardian from the WikiLeaks website.
Another leaked cable from the US embassy in Yangon, released by Wikileaks earlier this month, showed that Washington has suspected for years that Myanmar has a secret nuclear programme, possibly supported by North Korea.
One memo, dated August 2004, quoted an unidentified source as saying he saw about 300 North Koreans working at an underground site in Myanmar.
Myanmar's junta has dismissed reports of its nuclear intentions and brushed aside Western concerns about possible cooperation with North Korea.
The regime last month held a widely criticised election seen as prolonging military rule, with Suu Kyi locked up during the vote.
The Nobel Peace Prize winner has spent most of the past 20 years in detention but was freed from her latest seven-year stretch of house arrest on November 13.
Her National League for Democracy party was disbanded for boycotting the country's first election in 20 years in response to rules that seemed designed to bar her from taking part.
The US memo from New Delhi also said Myanmar's military ruler travelled with the wives of two other powerful generals, Thura Shwe Man and Soe Win, "who she (Vasisht) mused may have been used as 'hostages' to ensure tranquillity among the generals in Rangoon (Yangon) during Than Shwe's absence".

Golden chance to boost migration policies
* Published: 17/12/2010 at 12:00 AM
* Newspaper section: News
Tomorrow will mark exactly 20 years since the United Nations adopted the International Convention on the Protection of the Rights of all Migrant Workers and Members of Their Families (ICRMW) on Dec 18, 1990. This convention sets out an expansive set of rights for migrant workers and their families during recruitment and when preparing to migrate, when travelling to and whilst staying in destination countries and during return and integration into home states.
The convention recognises that like women, children or indigenous peoples, migrant workers are a vulnerable group in many societies who continue to be exploited, discriminated against and require targeted protection. Since the year 2000, Dec 18 has been celebrated annually around the world as International Migrant's Day.
Only 44 countries have ratified and 15 signed the ICRMW so far. Most are migrant sending countries. In Asean, only Cambodia, Indonesia and the Philippines have signed up. Given the extent and almost systematised exploitation of migrant workers that takes place in Southeast Asia, most notably in Thailand and Malaysia, the convention appears as a wish list of rights migrants should be provided with but which they rarely receive. On International Migrant's Day tomorrow, ensuring protection of migrant workers means promoting ratification of the convention as well as International Labour Organisation Conventions on labour migration.
Thailand has an estimated 2 million migrant workers, many of whom are fleeing civil and ethnic conflict in Burma. They are discriminatorily denied work accident compensation and disability rights, face restrictions on freedom of movement and cannot legally organise and collectively bargain. Where rights of migrants are enshrined in labour laws, workers unaware of their rights cannot easily challenge employers, many of whom ignore these standards. Pregnant migrant workers and their children continue to be a contentious issue in Thai society framed in terms of burdening health and education systems. Burmese language in ATMs and migrants granted motorbike licences became high profile issues in 2010 also.
An unrealistic and poorly publicised February 2010 deadline for migrants to enter a complex Nationality Verification (NV) regularisation process to become "legal" prompted the UN's expert on migrant rights to publically denounce the human rights consequences of Thailand's migration policies. Despite this, an estimated 1.4 million migrants not meeting the deadline (1 million entered NV and have until February 2012 to complete) were to be deported following a June 2010 order by Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva. These migrants would apparently return to Thailand quickly and cheaply through official import channels as "legal" workers soon after they were sent home.
Generally random arrest and extortion activities by enforcement agencies with relatively few undocumented migrants actually deported was the result of this crackdown. Those deported, particularly to Burma, fell into well documented cycles of trafficking and smuggling which activists demanded the UN independently investigate. This deportation abuse continues unchecked today however. Migrant import channels promised to employers are at a standstill with only 30,000 migrants imported into Thailand since 2005. This includes only 700 workers from Burma. Costs demanded by unregulated import brokers with dubious connections, as with NV brokers, remain unreasonably high. As this year ends only around 250,000 migrant workers have completed NV, despite some success in bringing verification for Burmese migrants into Thailand.
Against a backdrop of low skilled labour shortages, and with the Board of Investment revoking its policy that companies provided tax incentives could not hire migrants, the government is slowly realising that its migration policies are unrealistic and inhumane. Whilst some policymakers insist a new amnesty is to be granted for undocumented migrants to register for NV early next year, others are saying a crackdown to deport unregistered migrants is to be intensified and expanded to employers, broker and traffickers. The prime minister signed two related orders in October, the latter revoking the former as a response was required to links between deportation policies and trafficking which greeted UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon in Bangkok.
Thailand's migration policy remains in chaos as rights violations continue. Effective post-regularisation migration systems have failed to appear. So what is the way forward for Thailand in finding its way out of this migration mess? Central to getting the reins back is perhaps simply a case of ensuring a long term and sustainable migration policy and an agency responsible for genuinely implementing this policy.
What Thailand lacks is a long term vision of migration that equally benefits migrants, employers and Thais and which guarantees human and national security for all. A policy is needed which considers migrant workers as human beings with wants and needs like everyone else. Seeing migrants as commodities without a future, as a national security threat or as a burden doesn't work as markets move too fast and migrant rights violations become more visible and remain unaddressed. Migrants benefit Thailand and its employers whilst good employers need longer term migration policies to plan developments in their production too.
Migration needs to be considered alongside economic and social development policies for the country. Thailand will soon become an aging society when birth rates fall short of replacement rates. Already facing a shortage of skilled and low-skilled labour, migrants from neighbouring countries are crucial. Inserting migration issues into the 11th Economic and Social Development Plan with equal weight given to economic, national and human security would be useful.
Acknowledging necessity of and benefit from past, present and future migration for Thailand, its economy and its people would be a positive step forward too. Increasing importance is now attached to corporate social responsibility and enterprise cultures. Exploiting migrants to increase export advantage is unlikely to be beneficial for Thailand whilst reliance on cheap labour, instead of ensuring increased productivity, may actually slow down development and decrease competitive advantage.
Competing visions and interests in migration between those responsible for national security, human security, labour and industry continue to play out. The Illegal Alien Workers Management Committee and a plethora of other committees tasked in a piecemeal way to strategise and enforce migration and trafficking policies remain ineffective, particularly when combined with the lack of a long term migration policy. An independent agency to research, develop and implement a comprehensive migration policy which has power, resources and reports directly to the PM's office is crucial. Given the cross cutting nature of migration issues, a multi agency approach is certainly required.
Whilst recent interest in migration and trafficking by senior policy makers including the prime minister is welcome, many see power to resist solving migration challenges lying elsewhere. The systematic corruption and abuse of power involved, given entrenched roles for brokers, smugglers and traffickers formed over 20 years, is highly visible. Millions of migrants did not just appear in Thailand. In the absence of formal import systems, the undeniable truth is they were smuggled in with assistance from those actually tasked with ensuring national security.
A commitment by all sides is required to tackle this cycle of abuse which is undermining the rule of law. The task should perhaps be a national priority for the existing administration.
Interestingly, migrants are starting to make the link between discharging their own expensive "obligations", such as completing NV and paying into deportation funds and social security systems, with a corresponding duty on the government to give them more respect and ensure protection of their rights. Those working with migrants sense a new-found confidence among those who have "legal" status and passports. Incidents like when almost 1,000 post-NV migrants demanded rights in Khon Kaen will likely become more frequent. The government would do well to discharge its duties to migrants adhering to the law prior to discontent.
Moving forward with migration policies and good governance in Thailand will not be easy as conflicting interests need to be overcome, systematic corruption tackled and long term policies established.
Bringing together officials, employers, migrant, activists and the Thai public is necessary. Addressing importance of migration pressures at countries of origin remains too.
But in the end, migration should be seen as a challenge to be managed and not a problem to be solved. Human beings are involved, rivers of natural movement flow fast and unequal development across borders remains present alongside quickening global market forces.
If Thailand was to genuinely start to address its migration challenges in inclusive and rights-centred ways during 2011, credit will be given. During the 20th year of the ICRMW and during its presidency of the UN Human Rights Council, perhaps Thailand should make this extra effort too.

Political Parties Eye Business Opportunities
By KO HTWE Friday, December 17, 2010
Several political parties in Burma have unveiled plans to form businesses.
Speaking to The Irrawaddy on Friday, Aye Maung, the chairman of the Rakhine National Democratic Party (RNDP), said the Arakan State-based party will form a company under the name “Thiriwitsa” and intends to start selling shares early next year.
“We will establish a limited company,” said Aye Maung. “We plan to branch into the construction, fisheries and travel businesses.”
At the general election on Nov. 7, the RNDP won seats in 35 of the 44 constituencies it contested.
The Shan Nationalities Democratic Party (SNDP) said it decided to form a firm named “White Tiger” at a recent party conference.
“Our business will focus especially on trade,” said an SNDP member who asked to remain anonymous. “We will sell shares at 10,000 kyat (US $10) each.
“We have not discussed the future role of the SNDP,” he said, adding: “I don’t think it is worth calling a party conference when most of our candidates do not dare make any comment about the current political situation in Burma.”
Burma's Election Commission (EC) has banned the SNDP from holding its planned party conference at the Tai Literature and Culture Society office in Taunggyi, the Shan State capital.
The SNDP is Burma's largest ethnic party. It won 57 of the 156 constituencies it contested in the Nov. 7 election. Most of the constituencies were in Shan and Kachin states.
Khin Maung Swe, a leading member of the National Democratic Force (NDF), said that for longterm survival, each party must look at business opportunities and other ways of attracting donors or funders.
The Democratic Party (Myanmar)'s chairman Thu Wai also told The Irrawaddy that his party had plans to invest in business projects, but said the matter is still under discussion.

Prime Minister KAN's TV
-------------------------------------------------------------------
The following are the messages contained in the videos:
"No. 6 [Livelihood] What Effect Will the 5 trillion Yen
Supplementary Budget Have on the Lives of the People?"
Speaker of the House of Representatives: On behalf of the entire
Diet, I hereby declare the supplementary budget for FY2010 adopted.
Narration 1: Looking at the supplementary budget passed at the end
of last month, we realize that it has already begun to have an
effect on the lives of the people. For example...
Narration 2: You often talk about the "job creation in priority
areas." In specific terms, how will the supplementary budget help
with this?
Prime Minister: The reason why we don't see an increase in the
availability of long-term care services in spite of the great
demand is that caregivers aren't paid enough.
Narration 1: The support scheme for entrepreneurs hiring people in
long-term care and other growing sectors will be enhanced using
additional 100 billion yen.
Narration 2: Many who are about to graduate school still have not
found jobs. Something must be done immediately!
Narration 1: 50.1 billion yen will be set aside for programs and
initiatives to support new graduates' job hunting.
The number of career counselors and "job supporters," providing
face-to-face consultations for new graduates will be doubled.
Venues to match job seekers and companies will be set up.
"Hello Work" offices to support new graduates will be established
in all prefectures.
Immediately effective measures will begin to be implemented one
after another.
Narration 2: Young people who graduated years before have an even
harder time in finding a job than new graduates!
Narration 1: In order to make it easier for those who have already
graduated to be hired, a trial period for employment will be
introduced, which lowers the threshold for hiring.
Employers trying out this system will be provided "Trial Employment
Subsidies."
Other subsidies as well will help to create more jobs.
Narration 2: We need support now for those living in poverty!
Narration 1: Comprehensive counseling will be provided in
collaboration with NPOs etc., and temporary housing facilities will
be loaned out, in addition to other measures. Ten billion yen will
be provided for the flexible "Communal Bond Revitalization Project."
Prime Minister Kan personally commented on the name of this project.
Prime Minister: Unemployment, for example, means literally losing
one's job, it also means the severing of human relationships,
including some cases where the support of one's family is lost.
I think the most important element of a "reassuring society" has to
do with how communal bonds are reestablished.
Narration 2: Even if such stopgap measures are put into action,
those ineligible for employment insurance can't afford to undergo
reemployment training.
Narration 1: 100 billion yen will be used to extend the period of
the "Emergency Career Development Support Project," which combines
training with support for living expenses.
Narration 2: How about the development for nursery services or
measures to prevent child abuse?
Narration 1: An additional 100 billion yen will be expended for the
"Safe Child Fund" to address those issues.
Narration 2: What about the elderly? Can we create a society in
which they can continue to live in the areas where they have lived
for a long time?
Prime Minister: The key to this will be to create new "communal
bonds" within this new era in which close relationships between
people mean that even if a family member is not able to rush to the
side of the elderly when something happens, someone else will.
Narration 1: 50.2 billion yen will go toward creating a basic
infrastructure for community-based services and a system in which
community members will support each other on a daily basis.
Specifically, 700 facilitates will be set up in which caregivers
will be allowed to administer medical care. Thirty model facilities
will be created to offer 24-hour-a-day patrol and visitation
services. 400 million yen will be used for these facilities.
Narration 2: What about frameworks to support women's health, or
preparations against new strains of influenza?
Narration 1: The "Maternity Checkups Support Fund" will be
strengthened. 11.2 billion yen.
In addition, 120 billion yen will be put toward free cervical
cancer vaccination, preparing against new strains of influenza, and
other projects.
Narration 2: What is actually being done to "revitalize communities"?
Narration 1: A ground-breaking new subsidy has been introduced.
100 billion yen will be allocated to the "Bringing Light to
Residential Communities Subsidy." This money will be used for
policies to support regional consumers, countermeasures against
domestic violence and suicide, and measures to support self-
reliance, among other things. Additionally, 250 billion yen will be
put toward the "Attention to Detail Subsidy." This will be used for
measures to meet specific local needs for revitalization, such as
projects to move electric wiring underground and out of view around
tourism spots.
Narration 2: There has been some unusual weather lately. We need to
make sure our towns and cities are resilient against natural
disasters.
Narration 1: 140.3 billion yen will be used to promote disaster
prevention measures, to deal with guerilla monsoons and other
problems.
Narration 1: Many different fiscal expenditures bring the total of
the supplementary budget to just a little over 5 trillion yen.
Combined with regulatory reform and other policies, the budget is
expected to result in the creation of jobs for nearly 500,000
people and an increase in Japan's GDP by approximately 0.6 percent.
And this isn't the only thing the Prime Minister is working on...
Prime Minister: We will soon be heading into the year end and the
New Year. What needs to be done from here on goes without saying,
and that is the formulation of the fiscal 2011 budget. If I were to
liken this to a mountain, we are now heading from the seventh
station to approach the eighth, and entering a stage at which we
need to decide on a series of major and important issues.
Narration 1: Work to formulate the fiscal 2011 budget with an aim
to have a Cabinet decision by the end of this month is now taking
place at breakneck speed!
