[ Action for the next-new 1997 year.]
After the Chiristmas day, there is bomb-exprosion at Rangoon, which
killed 4 person. Japanese newspaper sourse said, It was an act by Karen
dissident group.
But, I heard nothing about the case from sourse of border-area.there
ware no person who know the case detail more than TV and newspaper told.
anyway Let's think about it, who would have gain, or make profit from the
case.
Previous to the case, nearly 1,000 number of Burmese students has
stage at Rangoon, and demonstrated aginst SLORC government. I got the
Japanese businessman told "The student is troublesome, who made inconvenience
for peoples here. we are very sorry to them, they did not care about people
actually, who wants peace and economic prosperity. a small part of
people like them, is most major obstruction of Myanmar's development".
Even by many views, over 250 protesters held by gov't force later.
and there was students demonstrations in Mandalay capital of upper Burma
up to near today. also Yangon universities closed after student protests.
the student knows what would happen on them. could not you think the bomb-
exprosion was happen for made change the student believes, possible of
arrest to shot-dead.
Many of Burma visitor in recently, ware bisiness people.really there
are no-mean for destruction of The visit Myanmar Year at the last case.
Bomb-exprosion in Rangoon, ware not first-time. In all cases, no
sufferer of army relatives, and happen on the time when does government
needs reason to threaten protrstor?.
In Karen armed group, even I heard some "going to kill foreign-
supporter for SLORC" from "foreign guest in Karens", Karen told "dont want
to hurt anyone who doesn't concern SLORC". even there are possibility of
terro-attack by hard-liner, would targetting first to Government office,
or Foreign office which government has military-cooperated tightly. Even
from necessary to care about safety of friendly force, the facilities of
water or electric-power suply ware in first, and Banking or Foreign
company-office were in second target, from military view.
If we are terrorist who likely SLORC said, we should bring
bomb to shopping-center or movie-theater. because of it might kill
much people more than last case in Rangoon.
The European Commission had a decision to cut Burma's low
tariff access to the European Union market. More ABSDF called the
sunction, arms, trade embargo, and the diplomatic pressure on the
SLORC. but how about China? Korea? Singapore? and many more asian
other countries. especialy, Japanese companies have express to
increased their investments in Myanmar, like Marubeni-group. We can
not stop to Mitsui, which will build a shipyard ?.
It seems like the japanese media-works does not make anything
what made stop them to concern SLORC's Myanmar.
Do you have any idea for what we going to move on next
1997 year.
