Quote of the Day - found on The Guardian (comments) site - on Burma so-called reforms etc

it won't matter, everyone knows the eu and usa are just desperate to grab a slice of a pie china's been hogging all to itself, someone persuaded the lady to nod and that's it, as far as everyone else is concerned. The burmese will have to sacrifice themselves again and again in another saffron revolution before they succeed, they must expect no outside help as long as their dictatorship obeys both east and west, and an invasion and puppet regime installment if it doesn't http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2012/nov/15/burma-frees-prisoners-barack-obama
