I never use Myanmar for my beloved country after the Junta change the name to Myanmar from Burma. But there is no longer Independent Burma. Under British, we are not allowed to criticize His majesty King or queen. Now under Junta, a book about N Korea reader was seized as some of its content makes displeasure to N Korea. So Mynamar is N Korea colony now.

Asean: the rubber stamp for Burmese election.
Myanmar "definitely wants us to rubber stamp the election results," a senior Indonesian diplomat said on condition of anonymity. "And while we will use every opportunity to push the Myanmar authorities to greater democracy, in the end we will probably end up being a big rubber stamp."

Uniquely Singapore.
1. “Photographer arrested because of taking photos”.
57-year-old photojournalist, Shafie Goh, was detained by police for one hour. His detention at about 7am on Saturday took place after a policeman saw the veteran photographer taking pictures of snarling traffic and stranded vehicles along Upper Bukit Timah Road, one of the areas badly hit by Saturday morning’s floods. After being spotted by an unidentified on-duty policeman who was mobilised to deal with the traffic situation, Mr Goh was asked to leave the scene.. However, he pleaded with the policeman to be allowed to take one more photograph. Before he could finish talking, the policeman took out his handcuffs and placed them on his right hand. He was also told he would be brought down to a police station.The policeman then brought him to the roadside and told him to wait for an investigator.He was only released after an hour.
A police statement released on Sunday said that officers had repeatedly asked Mr Goh to move to a safe place as he was taking photos in a dangerous position.
Shadrake, who was arrested at a hotel on Sunday, remained in police custody as the investigation was ongoing, a police spokesman said.
In an email to Reuters on July 3, Shadrake called himself a "British freelance journalist and author," who had planned to launch his latest book "Once A Jolly Hangman: Singapore Justice in the Dock" in the city-state on Saturday.
The Straits Times newspaper reported that Shadrake was 75 and his 219-page book was filled with accounts of high-profile cases in Singapore involving the use of the death penalty. It also included interviews with the city-state's former executioner.
Critics had blasted the Public Utilities Board (PUB) for not being prepared to handle the first two floods, while the department defending itself by saying abnormal weather conditions and clogged drains were to blame. A government minister is asking the Public Utilities Boad to explain itself to residents affected by the early morning floods.
One Singaporean suggested : “We want our Transport Minister to take MRT train, public bus in the rush hour so that he knows how ordinary Singaporeans feel. Our Health Minister went thru the operation recently, he might understand how it looks like under his charge our health system performance. Now, how about the chief PUB, the Minister in charge where were you when some Singaporeans houses/shops undergoing this flooding. Where was our PM on these flooding occasions?Show some leadership, please. (JT on July 19, 2010 at 9:07 am http://sg.yfittopostblog.com/2010/07/19/govt-minister-asks-pub-to-explain-flood/)

China is not interested in the Myanmar People democratic
Speaking at the closing session of the inaugural Future China Global Forum on 13 July, Singapore Foreign Minister said " China is not interested in the Myanmar People democratic or in making Muslims Confucianist. China is quite prepared to accept the world in all its diversity as long as you don't threaten them.
Yes, he is right. The Chinese is only interest for their economic success regardless of other people suffering. I would say they are selfish.
