  • UN, US, EU and ASEAN must consider for the Restitution to Myanmar/Burmese Citizens

    Instead of only punishing the alleged criminals we should look at the Restitution process, aiming for the restitution of the victims. NEXT LINE.And what is the use of hanging or punishing the dethroned dictators if we ignored the sacrificed activists. Just see Iraq. We must try to forget the incidence and give up the attempt to punish them even if we could not forgive the perpetrators.NEXT LINE.Like the no fault compensation in some insurance schemes, the State of Burma/Myanmar should compensate all the sufferers, with lump some rewards, monthly pensions, giving employment, projects, land, shop-lots, interest free loans etc.

  • Titanic Myanmar Tatmadaw SPDC

  • Win-win solution

    We should try to avoid using any local or International (ICC) criminal law, if SPDC agrees for a dialogue under auspices of UN. We all must be willing to waive the rights of indictment of any person in and affiliated to SPDC and Myanmar Military. It must be a win-win situation for all of us, including SPDC and Tatmadaw. After all we could not disband the 400,000 strong Myanmar Tatmadaw. Just look at what happens in Iraq. Not only the jobless ex-military could give trouble, our country’s security would be compromised. We need them to protect us from foreign aggressors and hard-line separatists to prevent the total disintegration of Burma/Myanmar. But if SPDC refuses for a proper dialogue_ We all have enough evidences to charge the accused, SPDC and affiliated parties and Myanmar Military. They all must be prepared to be the defendant or defendants in the criminal cases, Crimes against Humanity, Genocide and Ethnic Cleansing etc. at ICC.

   Race and Xenophobia
Posted by Marina Mahathier
We’re not the only people in the world grappling with the issues of race.
I thought this article has some resonance at home too.
