Hi Ko Moe Thee
How about joining all forces? There are hundreds around but unless we all come under one unity we can not win. Think about it and give us some idea on how to join , all of us, the bloggers, the viewers, all the organisations like Students, Monks, democracy activists, human rights, ethnic groups, refugees, etc. etc. So many of us all facing against the one and only enemy - the junta. Join forces and fight.

Go to that place
Ko Moe Thee,
I was once a youth member of DPNS during 1989-1990. I heard about you as a president of DPNS and then you fled the country and joined the Student Army, etc. I also heard that you were in Japan and later on came to the States and attended the Columbia University. But I really don't know what you are doing now in terms of what organization you are associated with and what kind of (palpable) movement you are organizing. When BBC, VOA, and RFA (I have never heard you speak at DVB) have interveiws with you, the interviewers introduced you as former student leader but they never mention your current status. So could you tell what you are doing - just to get an idea?
I am in the US and I must have a job to support myself. I don't know about you but I don't understand how Dr.Sein Win and his NCGUB members, Ko Aung Din and a few others could financially support themselves here by not having a full time job. Sometimes I think that our democracy movement is taking so long because some so called democracy leaders in exile are enjoying the priviledges they receive from various governments and they forget what actually they should be doing. At the same time, people and monks in Burma are suffering and the 88 Student Generation leaders are in prison.
i really agree with thitsar and naychi u
Hi all,
I would like to say something about our current democracy movement. First off, I have nothing to do with or have no personal connections with any of the democracy leaders in the US or anywhere else. I do understand that people are getting frustrated with the stagnant situations of our democracy movement for the love of our country. I sure am frustrated too.
So, oftentimes, we all try to reason why the democracy movement is not successful yet. People usually blame exiled leaders for this dragged-on democracy movement to the extent that these so-called leaders are half-responsible. These well-intented accusations are quite understandable. But I would like to
blame the military junta 100%. I mean 100%. There are only a few things an exiled leader can do. I think these leaders already sacrificed their life without expecting any benefits in advance. Of course, there are bad people.
We should not compare who is doing more. There are limits a person can
do. Exiled leaders including Dr. Sein Win, etc have carried on this revolution since the late 1980s. We should not question whether they are enjoying life in the US or not just because our beloved people and our beloved 88'Generation Leaders are suffering. At least we should be happy that the exiled leaders are safe in the US. I believe they are doing their part which they possibly can. I think their privileges they are enjoying now are nothing compared to what they already sacrificed in their life. I have no problem with their special status. It's just unfortunate that all people who sacrificed might not have these privileges.
Sometimes, tangible results from these exiled leaders might be rare. But I am sure that these leaders will be waging mental or psychological battles (at least within their mind) against the cruel junta however ineffective some of their efforts may be. Sometimes they may be drinking beer and enjoying life but I am sure they have their heart set on getting rid of the cruel junta as much as they can. I think they are useful even if they may not function effectively as activists. They are useful even as analysts.
We should not forget the positive things done by these leaders, for example, the founding of DVB,US Campaign, media campaign, their ability to dedicate this democracy cause, their writings, their encouragements, etc.
By saying all this, I am not defending these exiled leaders nor blaming people who blame them. I am just trying to point out some limitations and realities of this revolution. We can't expect people to be perfect. We can only expect them to do as best they can.
Sometimes people moan about the lack of success. But they fail to notice the fact that it is not that easy even to hold on to the status quo, let alone the forward step. I personally am very thankful to all Burmese people and leaders (abroad or not/effective or not) for being able to hold on to this revolution against the ruthless junta, however ineffective our efforts may be. Let's just contribute to this revolution as much as we can. Let's not be sour if we have to do a full time job. Let's just give our best efforts, whatever it it. We are all leaders.
Thanks.
PS: I do have any connections with any of the leaders. I do not have any privileges. I only want to blame people who did not sacrifice and are getting special rights now.
This letter does not try to blame people who question the efforts of the exiled leaders.
Ko Moe Thee,
you all should go check out the Burma News Ladder (I posted your demands there):
http://burma.newsladder.net/
and the largest (440,000+) of the many Facebook groups in support of Burma:
http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=24957770200
We are all determined to keep the light on Burma. We love you.
Here is a letter I have been sharing around from my own blog:
http://bourgeoisnievete.blogspot.com/
Yes we are with you. Come say hello.
Thank you,
Crush the Infamy,
To Thisa
I don't know anything about this Ko Koe Thee. I only saw his blog a few weeks ago and was impressed with his information about the families and friends of junta, who settle abroad. I believe these information are the most effective weapons we hold at the moment to counter attack the junta's nasty way to clamp down on democracy freedom fighters for 40+ years. I just think that Ko Moe Thee is busy getting those information, along side with many others like Niknayman, MMedwatch, etc. I wouldn't really too worried about exile leaders using or spending funds donated by international organisations or individual donors. Unlike Burma, all other democratic countries, especially the West have very reliable and trustworthy banking and taxing systems and nobody can get away with fraud. Every dollar donated should be in the record so could be easily tracked down, quite unlike Thank Shwe who converted all the natural gas selling money into diamonds that his daughter wears.
