Yes - that is true! and capitalism is not democracy. But the problem now is that in Burma, the Military controls all the resources and does NOT use them for the benefit of the people!
Returning the benefits of the resources to all the people of Burma is the first step.

A boycott of the Chinese Olympics in 2008 will apply pressure to the Chinese government. That pressure is intended to convince the Chinese government that it is in their own best interest to stop providing political cover for the brutal military regime in Burma. Once China stops protecting the regime, the UN and other international actors can take action against that government and in favor of democracy in Burma.

1. What do you guys want out of these protests in the US?
2. Do you think China sanction on Burma will makes Burmese people more jobless, and more people will die from starvation?
I think that screaming out loud in front of the camera will not free Burma. You guys need to come up with a good strategy to restore freedom in Burma. |
