Burma, America, The World, Art, Literature, Political Economy through the eyes of a Permanent Exile. "We must take sides. Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the oppressed. Sometimes we must interfere. . . There is so much injustice and suffering crying out for our attention . . . writers and poets, prisoners in so many lands governed by the left and by the right."

He says--"Aid should not benefit the junta."
With US aid promised by Trump not arrived yet--and junta continuing air strikes, and not helping at all, if you wish to donate this is a better option.
Ethnic states are more rural and less built up and closer to border and further from the epi-center.
Also, and I've written about this before, historically since Daw Ni Ni Myint, 3rd and 5th wife of Ne Win, the dictators have taken all aid.
Cyclone aid in 1970s.
Nargis Cyclone aid--even Commander of USS Essex complained.
Meanwhile, Min Aye Hlaing is in Bangkok at BIMSTEC.
Survivors interviewed by Irrawaddy and others--say instead of helping, soldiers did nothing and rounded up the rescuers.
Use your hard earned money wisely.

Thank you.
