| Daw Aung San Suu Kyi and Asia |
| Friday, May 15, 2009 |
By Carlos(Buffalohair)Guevara
Since Burma’s General Than Shwe got away with theft, rape and genocide the death of Daw Aung Suu Kyi would be the grand finale to his repugnant and reprehensible career. Aside from the nonsense and rhetoric that came from the John Yethaw incident (Rangoon Swimmer), one fact remains, Daw Aung San Suu Kyi is ill and in need of medical attention. Knowing this fact as well as detaining her personal physician makes Gen. Than Shwe a party to murder if Aung Suu Kyi succumbs from her present condition. It would also mark the beginning of a bloody end to Than Shwe’s regime fore he would no longer have a hostage. The world at large would also be culpable since they witnessed and did nothing but make more feel good speeches and useless declarations. Exactly what will the world of witnesses do now?
Burma is on the verge of internal revolt from other factions as cease fire groups begin to realize they have been taken for suckers. Riot Police in Maungdaw and Buthidaung Townships who’ve signed on with Than Shwe have already begun to abandon their posts. Apparently they were not happy with some of the conditions for them allying themselves with the military junta, slave labor being one main area of contention. The Tatmadaw has ordered all Arakan police stations to hunt down the deserters.
Other cease fire groups in Kachin, Shan and Karen regions will soon discover the deception perpetrated by the junta to gain control of these regions. The junta has already built outposts in these regions as a cease fire partner but in all actuality the junta has infiltrated these regions. It is the age old “divide and conquer” axiom as the junta continually lies to each ethnic group about the other. The utilization of religious differences has also become a tool of deception to further divide the nation. The addition of border conflicts the junta seems to keep quiet about is yet another hot bed ready to burst at the seams.
Dissention within the ranks of Than Shwe’s military is rampant as the junta continues to line the pockets of the generals leaving the soldier to fend for themselves. His generals are quietly at odds with one another since they all want to be the crime boss when Than Shwe dies this year from cancer or syphilis.
China has become a victim of its own corporate greed with growing dependency on world opinion to bolster their financial bottom line. They urged the military junta to reconcile amicable since they are aware of the deteriorating peace that prevails in Asia. China is on the verge of internal strife as well as growing numbers of Chinese groups are left out of the financial loop as China’s fragile economy begins to take a major hit. And Russia waits quietly to settle a score with China as well.
War is inevitable for this region. Combined with the conflict in Pakistan and Afghanistan it is only a matter of time before total pandemonium ties all the conflicts together and sides are drawn. What the world was fearful of starting (war) is going to happen regardless of all the gibberish they expound about world peace and humanity. It’s all about money & greed and Than Shwe is nothing but a microcosm of what is inherently wrong with the world as a whole. It is a grave omen when educated and sophisticated people choose “economics over humanity” in the arena of world politics.
Now a world leader who was duly elected by the people in a democratic election may die from illness because a common criminal ordained it. All the empty talk about freedom and democracy as well as human rights is meaningless and pointless rhetoric at this juncture. It is obvious the world only does things for monetary gain. To bad these so called world leaders can’t see past their check books. Ironically, if they choose to ignore the plight of Aung San Suu Kyi the domino effect of their inaction may very well usher in the very war they hoped to avoid. If Daw Aung Suu Kyi dies in bondage this could be the straw that breaks the camels back in the fragile balancing act of peace in Asia and the world.

"who put family second to country, who for her convictions made an unbearable choice—not to see her sons grow and not to be with her husband as he lost his life to a long and painful cancer. Suu Kyi, with an idea too big for any jail and a spirit too strong for any army, changes our view — as only real heroes can — of what we believe to be possible."BONO
