HTUN AUNG GYAW AND CSB (r)
Dear MYO THANT or MYO MA THANT or who ever you are,
You seem to be very angry with what was stated towards HAG.
Did you get asylum through him and his "Crude Slimes from Burma CSB"?
>From your writing, it can be judged that you did not come from the
movement (whether party politics, military involvement or ethnic
equality struggle) and therefore does not seem to have due respect for
those who came out from there.
Will it be on target to say that you - - are taking one or the other of
the stipends and scholarships that had been initiated because of the 88
movement (check and you will see that all the scholarships and stipends
and free tutions were started only after 1988).
The students of 88 had not objected to people from Burma getting the
funds or asylum. They are protesting against the free rides -- those who
even after getting asylum and all the related benefits say "I have my
family back in Burma -- and cannot do anything to get them into peril",
and those who are writing untrue/unproven statements. On these the 88
students have the right to do so.
HAG, being a Hypocrite is not fit to have initiated a "Civil Society"
just the same thing YOU should also undestand. Some examples -
Do you know HAG was unable to a report or explain to the ABSDF about the
200,000 Bahts (back in 1995 at the rate of 25Bts -- 1US$) donated by
the Kawsakis from BRF of Japan. As far as the story goes, between HAG
and KKL (who is also now in LA) the money was handed to them in BKK but
never went to the ABSDF accounts?
- Do you know of that HAG brought his Thai girl friend to the US
(yes, he does have his
Burmese wife in the US also -- is that bigamy?) You can ask his
wife -- you can ask
Aung Kyi Oo -- you can ask Saya Nyan Lin.
Do you know that OGGAR (son of one of the activists in Burma) committee
suicide in
HAG's apartment in BKK. HAG never came back to the room to take
care of the corpse
and the funeral ?
Stay away fella (just re-using your very US like expression) -- pick
your own size and voice only if you know the specifics.
Let the young people of the ABSDF who followed the decisions of HAG and
were unsatisfied with that express themselves. They identify themselves
and HAG will be replying himself.

What's wrong with Htun Aung Gyaw?
Do you think he should not help the Burmese, who just came out of Burma
and
are thus not capable of translating their own experiences in Burma?
I think, every Burmese in Burma is equally mistreated by the military
fascists.
So....what's the big deal?
Every Burmese, execept those military family members who are directly
benefitting from the present repressive rule, is entitled to receive
"protection" and "asylum" from the US or elsewhere.
Have you ever heard Daw Aung San Suu Kyi say, "We want the world know
that we
are the prisoners of our own country?"
Have you ever seen the BBC's documentary, "The Fourty Million Hostages"?
Do you want all Burmese people to be beaten against the fully-closed
walls of
SLORC's prison while you yourself are breathing the air of freedom and
equality in the US, Australia,Canada in the name of fighting for
democracy?
You may all be students or NLD members or ethnic fighters who once
experienced
hardship while you fought along the Thai-Indo-Burma regions. This does
not
mean that you have the right to see other unfortunate citizens, who
don't come
out for their own reasons, as different breed.
This revolution was participated by people from all walks of life; from
prostitutes to monks; high and low.
If you keep misjudging Ko Htun Aung Gyaw's work as selfseeking behavior,
you
are comaparing him to your own standards.
Please review your unilateral view about WHO should get "asylum."
Every Burmese should get "asylum."
Be considerate, fellas.
Revolution is still alive. Let's go together with full maturiy and
understanding among us.
Distinguish the problems with proper perspectives.
The new commers are not problems. They came to the US for they had
unbearable
problems; economic hardship, social crisis, lack of freedom of
movement..
Remember the fact that All Burmese citizens inside Burma are now being
enslaved by the military regime.
Myo Thant
