"Those with talent who naturalise today can easily leave the country of adoption for greener pasture tomorrow; it is what these developed countries do to keep them there that really matters.
Between the hard-working stateless man who has spent much of his life toiling on Malaysian soil and the corrupt politician who continues to squander our national wealth, it does not take a genius to distinguish who is the real patriot." By Josh Hong in Malaysiakini

Speaking to The Irrawaddy on Thursday, Aung San Suu Kyi’s lawyer, Kyi Win, said that the Burmese authorities had denied him a meeting with the detained opposition leader to discuss the appeal against her continued detention.
Kyi Win said that his written request to meet with Suu Kyi was rejected by the security forces on Monday.

Deafening silence from Malaysia regarding Myanmar Cyclone?
First of all I wish to apologize if I am wrong.
If Malaysian Government had already sent the condolence note to Myanmar, I am sorry for writing this.
If Malaysian Government, GLCs (government Linked companies), NST, TV3, NTV7, RTM and NGOs (esp. government affiliated) had already started a campaign to help Myanmar, please accept my apology for wrongly writing this posting.
If you all haven’t done anything, it is shame on you.
We don’t want a cent from you Kaisu Malaysia!
We know that we are not Orang Puteh (Whiteman) , no Arab blood and have no Malay-Indonesian blood. We are ALWAYS discriminated in your country.
Never mind if you do not wish to recognize the undocumented workers/migrants and asylum seekers.
During the great disaster in Myanmar, I hope if Malaysian government could do the followings to help us without spending a cent.
Please announce amnesty on all the Myanmar/Burmese undocumented workers/migrants and asylum seekers including those already in the detention camp. (At least if they could work and earn, they could help their families, relatives and friends.)
You could put a time limit for example six months to one year.
It is shameful that you are heartless to continue arresting and some of your agents are harassing them daily.
Dr San Oo Aung
17 Myanmar Illegal Immigrants Held In Kelantan
BERNAMA, RANTAU PANJANG, May 6 (Bernama) — The Anti- Smuggling Unit (UPP) Tuesday arrested 17 Myanmar nationals without valid travel documents in Kampung Kempas, Machang, as they were being smuggled into the country by a syndicate.
Kelantan UPP commander Mazlan Che Hamid said the Myanmar nationals, aged between 16 and 30 years, had been turned over to the Immigration authorities.
He said the van driver, a Malaysian, stopped the vehicle by the roadside and fled after realising that it was being tailed by UPP personnel at 4.30 am.
The UPP personnel had followed the van from Kampung Kedap here, some 40 km from Machang, he said.

Copied from Irrawaddy By SAW YAN NAING
A political prisoner, Win Tin, also known as Annul, a youth member of the main opposition National League for Democracy, died on Thursday in Tharrawaddy Prison in Burma, while serving a 24-year sentence of hard labor, according to a human rights group.
Win Tin, 30, died of tuberculosis in the prison in Pegu Division, according to the Thailand-based Assistance Association for Political Prisoners (Burma).
A Muslim, Win Tin was arrested in 1999 for his political activities.
Myat Hla, the chairman of the NLD office in Pegu, said, “He [Win Tin] had been suffering from tuberculosis for a long time. We heard often that his health condition was bad, and he didn’t receive medical treatment in prison. This morning, when his family members went to see him, he had already died.”
Win Tin is survived by his wife. He joined the NLD when he was teenager and was very active in the political movement, said Myat Hla.
“He was afraid nothing,” he said.
Bo Kyi, the joint secretary of the AAPP, said Win Tin had suffered from tuberculosis since 2002. He didn’t receive proper medical treatment in spite of specific requests from his family members to prison authorities, he said.
“Medical treatment in Burmese prisons is very poor,” said Bo Kyi. “If the authorities don’t provide sufficient medical treatment, more prisoners will die in the future.”
The military government charged Win Tin with activities destructive to the stability of the regime.
The AAPP estimates that there are 1,864 political prisoners in Burmese prisons.
