Pressure is mounting on the United Nations and South East Asian governments to address human rights violations in Myanmar, while refugees are escaping their country for an uncertain life in Thailand.

Al Jazeera spoke to one pro-democracy campaigner who says ASEAN nations aren't doing enough.

  • To: dvd4fun-Nonsense. You must to know the Chevron and Unical's participation in force labor of Burmese. Your Secretary of State was board member at the time. Your country happen to be the biggest arm's dealer in the world. Your country invaded Iraq based on lie. The last thing U.S wants and need is strong U.N.

  • Typo-logic.

  • I refuse to listen to defeatist like dvd4fun. The world won't give up on U.N just yet. Please sign a petition to U.N security council to send its troops in Burma. The safety of Burmese are most important matter now. So Burmese junta can't comit anymore atrocities upon the Burmese people, please sign a petition.

  • dvd4fun: You are American therefore of course you will desregard International body. But concernig of Iraq War, Hou can you place blame on U.N? It is U.S's war. Why don't you hold U.S and Ameicans responsible? Yeah There are flaws in your log isn't it? From that point not likely anyone to take your comment seriously. By the way American guy from Texas currently sit in a white house(not worth typing his name)what good is he?

  • The Bible foretold of the last days. We are living in times of war, crime, starvation, extreme sickness, no love for our neighbor. It's just a matter of time (and very shortly) before this world will end.

  • The whole world is watching the Peacful Buddhist monks in their brave protest for Democracy in Burma! Thank God for the great country of Thailand to help these Burmese refugees! Long Live the King of Thailand!  May he live 100+ years! and May Burma acquire their Democracy and peace !!!!

  • Don't expect from U.N. What did U.N accomplish lately? Can they stop U.S going into Iraq? Can they stop Rwandan genocide? How about in Somalia? U.N is busy handing out projects to their relatives, adjusting inflation, and upgrading their benefit packages. Black guy (not worth typing his name) doesn't have any clue. Previous useless guy from Malaysia who sort of own chip company and doing business with Burmese government to use their chip in Burmese passport.

  • To take any action on Myanmar , International community need an UN Security Council's approval. But it will never happen because China will Veto any action against Myanmar military government by UN, giving reason that Myanmar is not a regional threat and/or it is Myanmar internal affair while exploiting Myarmar's natural resources. ( everybody know that).

    To Free Myanmar ,,? Ask CHINA.

  • people pls help us
