  • As a burmese, I would like to thank you all people around the world to support us for justice and freedom . Thank you all..really, we will keep on fighting this junta. and, May peace and democracy prevail

  • Why is Aung San Suu Kyi not free from house arrest today. The militia junta are full of lies. We need brave men and women to finish the forced and undemocratic rule of the militia junta. I love this beautiful World and we the people can never be made to live by force. Those who oppress people must be remove from power immediately. (If oppressors do not listen to our crys, your whispers, the global and local protests, people without aid, let us go in and move them aside)!

  • to 11Sept2001, After being under the military for 47 long, dark years, we have had enough and are ready to confront the oppressive regime. All we need is a little understanding from the people in other countries who are enjoying the freedom and liberty . Is it too much to ask? We believe in LOVING KINDNESS even to our enemies . Why are you so agressive?

  • Hey... !! I was there

  • I was catapulted out of Burma at age 11 and had nowhere to turn to. So I deliberately forgot Burmese out of shame and to prevent hatred by the Thais that I never looked back. But it continues to haunt me , because some one always knew that I was borrowing their land to live and walk on. So, I'm stateless all you wankers! Give me a break! Human beings are unfair!!!!!!!

  • I am in tears,

    there simply was no

    need for any violence.

    Simply an apology would

    have prevented the pain,

    but desire for suffering

    is Than Shwe's game.

  • Why do we even have diplomatic relations with the thugs posing as the Burmese Government? There needs to be an international boycott of all businesses doing any transactions that help keep the murderers in power. Just like we did with South Africa. We can't depend on the Governments to do anything but talk.
