The world should support the unconditional release of Miss Aung San Su Chi. Too much time have been wasted since she is elected to be the head of Burma and yet she is powerless. If the world believes in democracy as it should be, the world should unite with the Burmese people and demand that the military release her.

AAB was busy thinking and speaking well of Ahmadnejad, Iran’s head of state at the UN when everyone is condemning him for his undercover nuclear activities and secret plans for genocide. He is really incorrigibly stupid, probably too sleepy to know what was going on at the meet. Just because he is a Muslim too, he indirectly acknowledge a brotherhood with that potential terrorist. Watch out the world. AAB has aligned us to a terrorist country. So much for foreign investments, Iskandar, northern corridor, etc., etc.

When all government in Asia practise some sort of authoritharianism, what credibility do they have to criticise Burma? That they are not as authoritharian as them?

Myanmar cannot hope for help from ASEAN or any other Asian country. Whether they or we like it or not Western liberalism is what will free Myanmar and cause change and our ideals and ideas won’t.

Not accepting that, we here in Asia is part of the problem and contributors to the evil that is happening now in Myanmar..

Violence breeds violence. Another 1988 massacre in the making.

International communities should rally behind the Burmese people and end their cry for justice, oppressive and iron-fist rule by the military regime once and for all. The Burmese people have suffered enough for the past few decades and it’s high time to impose international sanction on the regime, ASEAN included. ASEAN members have to make a stand in this matter and expel Myanmar would be a better option.

Military actions against the regime is the last option. But I doubt it, as China wouldn’t allowed this to happened.

Probably international communities should boycott the Beijing Summer Olympics next year to send a strong message to China to cease being the backer of the regime.

But again I doubt this will ever happened.

Heck, if he cant do something great for his own country dont expect him to stand up for other countries. And if he does then he is just a plain hypocrite. Pls tackle our own issues at hand first b4 meddling into others.

Abdullah could be sleeping at the UN too.

Can someone tell him to wake up & do something sensible for once.

How could the PM speak out against other country’s policy if he himself practices racial discrimination policy in his own country?

When other countries leaders commented about the NEP, the UMNO politicians (especially the terrorist styled Education Minister and the jobless Son-in-law of the PM) went mad.

The PM should contempt the NEP first if he wanted other countries to respect him.

At least for the 1st time in his life time he can start to do some good thing by voicing up the uncivilised and ruthless action by Myanmar’s army,,,,,but wait then he will traped into his own political milege as he knows better how the UMNO-control goverment is used to marginalise and discrimate against non-bumis.

Gunning down innocent civilians is wrong.
The US, as the world superpower must step in and prevent further killings.
