Photo - a Rohingya genocide victim fleeing on a boat from Western Burma begs for mercy -

The Wretched of this Earth - photo from Internet. In his speech at the Convocation Hall of Rangoon University on Nov 20, 2012, President Obama of the USA said, "The Rohingya also have their beliefs and aspirations, just like you and I do." This may not be a totally accurate quote. Most media outlets except VOA/Burmese ignored this remark.

Eat Drink Man Woman--that I saw in a movie theater years ago--still a bit hard to understand--

but I remember all the dishes from Burma--including the winter melon soup. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_MQODtUW8k0
