re-posting - Deusche Welle interview of Dr. Zarni, LSE, Burma political prisoners as bargaining chips

The junta's politics as war.

Note:

To the gutless person, sure it's a man, who keeps writing "hack, again!" whenever I re-post something -

I deleted all your comments.

The correct usage is "Heck. No!"

From "What the heck"

I am not a hack writer, I re-post for a reason, and if you don't even have the guts to post your real name, at least get your usage, grammar and spelling correct. "Go to hack" which is probably where you are already.

Movie The Lady - LA Times interview of actress Michelle Yeoh -

http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/movies/2011/11/the-lady-michelle-yeoh-luc-besson.html

she looks very like Daw Suu but the Burmese voices are all wrong, and "the speech" is incomprehensible to a Burmese speaker -

Besson should have used real Burmese for the voices, even the crowd scenes.

At least Beyond Rangoon had Burmese actors.
