What or who is this thing called "myanmar?"

John Pohl:   Who is "Myanmar" (the subject that 'must choose', as this presentation claims)? I think it's time to question the basic assumption believed by so many 'Burma experts', that there is a *nation* "'Myanmar", while "Myanmar" is actually a military driven nation building (or empire building) project based on civil war, ethnic cleansing and forced assimilation. Remember the Soviet Union and Yugoslavia?
