And what about Myanmar Passport holders like me, is there any list sent to Myanmar Embassies not to entertain the Passport extension of the persons, their family members and relatives? FYI Myanmar Embassy in Malaysia is currently doing these on Myanmar Muslim Professionals working with valid visas and legally in Malaysia. Why R they targeting Muslims when Buddhist illegals even without Passports are legalized and issued with new Passports. This is the clear case of Religious Discrimination on Racist Myanmar Embassy Officials….I am working in my busy clinic 12 1/2 every day, 363 days per year, almost never go out after clinic hour, never involve with any TERRORIST groups, never commit any crime BUT just an active Human Rights activist on FB and blog. Even up to September many Embassy official staff are coming to my clinic for FREE OF CHARGE TREATMENTS. Just because Myanmar Military Cyber-troopers defamation with lies…they Foreign Ministry and Naypyidaw should not instruct its Embassy to commit Human Rights abuse on me.

“Hard-talk” with a Burmese Hardliner
June 17, 2013Actually I strongly believe that the political drama of Anti-Muslim riots is not aimed to stage the ground for a coup d’état but to brainwash the people to become Ultra-Nationalists and making their supports and votes swing from Daw Suu led NLD to USDP. As Daw Suu has to keep neutral or even if spoken something according to the Human Rights norms, present gov supporters would discredit her as Klara-supporter. If military coup, the sanctions would definitely come back. Now they are trying to stay in power even after “democratic” and “fair election” in 2015.

Signs of Coming Genocide in Burma?
May 9, 2013TQ KO SAI LATT and THE IRRAWADDY editors. Although the No. 8 Stage of Genocide is still a denial after the genocide, you have rightly said that there is a denial at the present by every personality from both side of political divide and even from the democratic world. Kindly allow me to add an interesting new phenomena in Myanmar which made me to think about adding two more stages in the Internationally accepted “8 Stages of Genocide”.
“No 9th. Stage of Genocide”: blaming the victims = government, some Myanmar/Rakhines, 969 group and Government are blaming Muslims of Myanmar (Rohingyas and Myanmar Muslims) for those mass murders in Rakhine and Meikhtila.
“No 10th. Stage of Genocide”: asking the victims to apologize. This is promoted by 969 U Wira Thu, online Myanmar Military Government cyber-troopers, Mandalay Chief minister U Ye Myint and people in the inner-circle of U Thein Sein’s Government.
