Kamayut police says will take action against junta-sponsored anti Rohingya demonstration (fake) in front of US Embassy--
http://burma.irrawaddy.com/news/2016/04/28/112926.html
Important--state sponsored by junta demonstration in front of US Embassy, Rangoon, against US U.S. Embassy Rangoon 's use of word Rohingya--London Conference on the Destruction of Myanmar's RohingyaKamayut police (hero of day) says will take legal action against "demonstrators" (Mistah Wirathu the racist monk sent a statement)
because permission was given only at another venue, not in front of the US Embassy--which is reasonable enough.
Mark my words, claws are coming out.
After it's rigged everything to its liking in years 2011-2016, junta is still not content and must do sabotage, using "democratic means."
This is clearly a junta-sponsored "demonstration" of over 300 people including "monks."
Or racist monks--

Ex-monk U Gambira of 2007 Saffron Revolution fame, Burma, sentenced to hard labor--
If it is not a deal between the junta and the NLD, as Veronica Pedrosa thinks, it is certainly an attempt to discredit the "new administration." Since U Gambira was initially arrested in Jan 2016 on charges of illegally crossing the border, this plot was probably on junta's books since then, and he was sentenced to hard labor only now.
Remember Yettaw the Mormon who swam to Daw Suu's house?
Junta knew about that too and let it go on.
In any case, it's an attempt to show who is still the boss.
I say junta for purposes of clarity
junta junta junta
Burma Burma Burma--
I think journalists should stop saying things like "newly democratic Burma."
It is not.
They just put a facade "admin" in place.
As one visitor to this blog says poetically,
"All puppets, all the same, but this puppet dances prettier" (than Baldy Admin." Certainly nicer clothes and some hair.

The teak trees have become lamboghinis--poem by KMKaung
The teak trees have become lamborghinos
the friends of Burma have become friends of em
the businessmen have become cronies
drug money has been washed
the country has been prostituted
the broadcasters continue
their bump and grind routine
freedom has flown out of a hole in the wall
accompanied by so-called democracy
in the nominally civilian government
real civilian government
lame duck with wings clipped.
Poor duck waiting to be steamed pekinged
betutued
in the triple boiler
baked underground process
wrapped in banana and coconut
leaves
the people are still rejoicing
not knowing
like 1988
they've lost
again
and again
and again.
Daw Suu will die endlessly campaigning
and proving herself.
How many times?
Bright Sun only threatens once
when the army shoots
it shoots to kill.
In 2007, Kenji Nagaii's hands held his camera up a few seconds
then he fell on his side and died
street side.
The soldier poked at him with a stick? Like checking a dead dog.
Who gave the order.
The soldier has never been court martialed.
Japan hardly kicked up a fuss.
In 1988, Ko Phone Maw was shot
Win Maw Oo and many others were shot
in 1962 many were shot
at the port many were shot.
As recently as 2 years ago
Ko Par Gyi was shot
shot shot shot
hit hit hit
Don't cry Ma Nandar--
Diamond Diamond is wearing
a yellow robe
hiding.
The real power
resides in the barrel of a gun
resides in a big government
with a big army
and no internal enemies or external
except invented.
The weather vanes dither around
and spin widely.
The earth shook wildly
in 3 countries
Burma Japan Ecuador.
The shake got harder.
In all the stories
the earth opened up
and swallowed
all the bad guys
and gals
but it seems
only in the stories.

The earth shook wildly
in 3 countries
Burma Japan Ecuador.
The shake got harder.
In all the stories
the earth opened up
and swallowed
all the bad guys
and gals
but it seems
only in the stories.

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.

5.0 out of 5 starsLanguage for a New Century: Contemporary Poetry From the Middle East, Asia and Beyond
By matt horton on August 19, 2008
Format: Paperback
In this age of information, poetry is perhaps the most efficient method of expressing grand concepts. Language for a New Century, a collection of contemporary poetry from the Middle East, Asia (including parts of North and East Africa) and its Diaspora, contains one poetic masterpiece after another. Complete with humor, love, anger, despair, confusion, contempt, sadness and joy, the poems open a window into the experience of the world's most populous continent. Lovingly compiled by its editors, who are towering artists in their own right, this collection of 400 voices from the "East" is the culmination of six years of research and collaboration with thousands of people in the 55 countries from which the works are drawn.
