Suu Kyi is taking after her father, following every inch of steps of Aung San’s. She’ll stand up for the truth, justice in order to protect each citizen against tyranny. Suu Kyi symbolizes a sign of peace, a mark of distinction, and a beacon of unity in the fight for freedom.

Indepedence was given to Union of Burma. Not to the Bamahs alone.Bamahs cannot snatch the whole country like a bully. UN must blow the whistle, and give a level ground. Canada

We want an autonomy because we don’t want another Burmese government to tell us what we can and cannot do in our community when they don’t even live in our community. We don’t want them to destroy our schools and ban us from speaking and learning our language, which is necessary in our community. Though people may disperse all over, a high number of each ethnic still live in their own state with their own history of settling there and their ethnic lived there for centuries. Evey community has different needs. If you don’t speak a language of an ethnic and go into their area, how are you going to help them?You will need to learn their language because they cannot understand you because you speak a language that is barely used in their community. You will need a translator if you want to help them. Every ethnic in Burma is different and the cultures are diverse but are you going to make one culture(the dominant) to make a decision on a minority people when they don’t even know what are the needs for them. Federal states or autonomy was supposed to represent the Union of Burma but it was never practiced. It has always been a dictator. Each ethnic is very strong, and if you are going to fight against it, you are fighting for no change and only the same situation as it is and it will stay the same because the dictator holds all the power to every ethnic area and there was no benefits toward the people because they have no autonomy government that will help them for their own state. The dictator uses all to himself and share nothing to ethnic areas. Universities were built in central Burma but I don’t see any in other states. I feel that if we don’t have autonomy government, we will be unheard in our community just like what we are right now.

Why do we have to get permission from this modern Hitler for anything when they never ask permission from us whether they can practice the injustice actions of coming to our community and force people to do labor, be porters, rape ethnic women, and kill people. At the least if there is an autonomy government, there will be laws that will protect us from these and that there will be laws that prevent them from building infrastructures such as dams that will destroy the only necessity that the ethnic people have been depending for a living for centuries. I don’t want a person who is supposed to be my government but does not represent my state to come in and build a dam and relocate me to somewhere else. I am human and I want a government that live in my area and state and understand my culture and language and knows the need of my area. I want a law that will protect me against what has been happening for decades.
How would you feel if you are a Burmese and have an ethnic person coming to your area and rape your woman or kill your parents? Don’t you want a law in where you live to protect you???

This is my opinion and I am not favoring any groups. I just want justice and law that can protect people in their area to live the life they want to live without fearing of threats from army.

Well, for crying out for loud,this issue need to be solved a long, long time ago. Neither the majority Bama nor the minorities Shan, Kachin, Kayin, Chin, Kayah, Wa and so on have benefited from the military regime of U Ne Win or his successor Saw Maung and Than Shwe. In U Nu’s era they promised ‘Bama takyat, Shan takyat’ but the promise have never been fulfilled. It is worst now, neither Bama nor Shan nor Kachin, Kayin or someone else have none but all for Than Shwe, Aung Thaung, Maung Thaung and their lackeys. We ethnic are human too. At least Daw Suu has some sense of social justice.

Suu Kyi is British and American Plant in Myanmar — her only agenda is to get the USA/UK into Myanmar. All this talk of freedom for Myanmar is motivated by that agenda. Unfortunately for her, neighbouring powers have other concerns and she is an inconvenience/nuisance from that perspective.
