Shame on Junta

I could not remember how many times I had chosen the the title " Shame on Junta". I would like to write an articles having the title " proud to be under Junta". So far no news on Burma have come out yet from independent news agency that can be titled as " proud to be under Junta". But you can read Junta's achievement or success story in their propaganda Burmese newspapers. The following news will never be published in newspaper or media inside Burma. It is very certain that Junta will reply only as full of lies.

Dr. Osamu Kunii, the nutrition expert in Myanmar for the U.N. Children's Fund, said there were 100,000 to 150,000 child deaths per year in the country – or between 274 and 411 daily. The report rated Myanmar as having the 40th highest child mortality rate in the world, surpassed in Asia only by Afghanistan, which has the third-worst record after Sierra Leone and Angola

Is this the Junta great achievement during their 20 years reign? Overall health care system of Burma is the world's second worst after war-ravaged Sierra Leone. That why Junta generals take treatment at Singapore hospitals even for a small sickness. Recently there was rumors circulating in Burma that General Than Swe’s wife Daw Kyaing Kyaing legs was broken at a fall. She is taking treatment in Burma because Singapore MM Mr Lee Kuan Yew has criticized her daughter wedding and she was annoyed on the criticism, that is the news circulating also in Burma.
