Lame duck new Burmese admin--poor duck trying to fly--

It is uncertain how much power "the new administration" is being given by the junta.
Therefore it should avoid making ambitious statements such as it will resolve the Rangoon traffic problem.  See below.  The US based radio station should stop enticing them to do so.

Why?

The junta is still firmly in control and is likely to throw in a wild card anytime.

It is their game, it is their army.

The less promises made on the part of the civilian/NLD appointees the better.

The next thing you know, the junta will create an incident or incidents and say it had to step in or else there will be anarchy.

They love this word "anarchy" as much as they hate the words democracy and federalism and human rights.

Mark my words.

See what happens during Thingyan.

The interviewee below said that they banned the commercial pavilions as they were being used to sell drugs.

The hard drugs business may go underground.

Who knows how much formadelhyde!!! is already in the lahpet or pickled tea.
