January 23, 2012Majority should protect minority, not belittle them in true Democracy
November 18, 2010Edited to Burmanize from _MKini letter: Majority should protect minority, not belittle them by A Vaithilingam
Name-calling by military leaders, some politicians, some irresponsible people and public servants belonging to a section of the majority community in this country of ours have been most insensitive, hurting the feelings of the minority ethnic and minority religious groups. Can it be thoughtlessness or is it a feeling of superiority by some who feel they are above the law?
We already know of cases when General Ne Win lost their cool and made racial and slanderous remarks to belittle the mixed blooded people, people of Indian-sub-continent and taint Burmese Muslims had started to taint their minds. I suppose not able to punish those bigots (who, legally, seemed to have infringed the Human Rights, Minorities‘ Rights, Religious Freedom to start the Ethnic Cleansing) has resulted in others continuing to taunt the minorities!
World leaders should declare all-out war on Racial Discrimination
September 20, 2010We understand about the demanding special privilege by some group e.g. people with military experience or those from majourity race and religion and at the same time actively looked down and discriminated on some groups based on ethnicity, religion and origin because we were at the receiving end in Myanmar. We thought we could escape by running away from Burma.
But we are wrong. Racial discriminations are everywhere. But discriminations are EVERY WHERE, here, Thai, Singapore, ASEAN, OIC, EU, US up to UNHCR and UN.
