    It would not be right to name the other site as they do not have an opportunity to defend themselves

    Afternoon pal, everything you have said is 100% correct. I have deleted the name of the other site as they do not have an opportunity to defend themselves

    This is a situation where there really is a lot of fake news from the start https://www.theguardian.com/global-...to-fire-in-myanmar-after-more-than-400-deaths

    And taken from the German professor I've previously quoted (so might read a little strange as via google translate

    You mean the advisory commission that was used in 2016 at the request of Aung San Su Kyi. In fact, Kofi Annan in the report even thanks the Myanmar government for the good cooperation. But no one denies the attacks of the militants, the hard reaction of the military is criticized.

    The attacks are not sufficiently criticized. The government is criticized, but it leaves out completely that it has already tried to solve the problem. This shows the bias of the international community and the UN at this point. I feel uncomfortable being the defender of the Burmese government here. But as I always say in fun: "I only believe the news from Myanmar, which I falsified myself!"

    António Guterres, Secretary-General of the United Nations, has at least condemned the attacks of the militants. But you just talked about fake news. What exactly do you mean by that?

    I have been dealing with the escape movements of the 1970s and 1990s. There is strong evidence that these emigrations have been the result of mass hysteria caused by rumors. Also, the so-called saffron revolution ten years ago was probably triggered by the fake news of the death of a monk. But that does not happen in any of the reports. The international community has not dealt with this conflict for decades. This takes its revenge today, so no one knows the history.




    But I'd agree it's a PR disaster in the UK and it is to do with the bottom line.

    On the Myanmar stupidity I am against going.

    For those who are saying Radz will do anything for money, can I just ask you this: Who would you rather have Gold and mate or Radz. Gold and mate made millions from porn. They got so good at it that they set up online and offshore far away from UK police and UK laws. They base most of their operations in the far East and there is a large amount of evidence linking them to money laundering, organised crime and white slavery. Kids taken and put into prostitution. Russians, Chinese Tongs and all manor of reprobates are part of GOLDMEMBER which is one legal site, but covers for around 4000 different competing porn sites that they own or are partners in

    The RIver Kwai is in Thailand (Khwae Yai River) but associated with Burma as the prisoners are in a Japanese POW camp and sent to build a bridge for the railway from Bangkok to Yangon.

    And I think the last owner was more likely to have 'lines' of communication with Escobar.

    That's part of the trouble of the conflict the government do not recognise them as citizens but migrants. Again apologies for translation:

    There are a few facts that are accepted by almost all - at least Western - observers. The Rohingya are Sunni Muslims, as are those in neighboring Bangladesh. The name Rohingya appears at the end of the 18th century for the first time. After that until the beginning of the 1950s no more. And that although the British colonial rulers who conquered the country after 1824 have carefully classified every tree and ethnic group. The British censuses use different names for Muslims living in the country: Bengali, Chittagong or Arakanese Muslims. That the Rohingya are an ethnic group living there for centuries can not be proved. And that's exactly what the argument is about.

    The name is a battle concept. The Myanmar government refuses to speak of "Rohingya" and sees the Muslims living there as immigrants from Bangladesh, ie as illegal migrants. How long have Muslims been in Myanmar today and where did they come from?

    It is certain that Muslims from Bengal have lived there for a long time. It is unclear how many have immigrated to the lands that now belong to Myanmar. You have to imagine it this way: Until 1826 there were no borders in the region. What we are seeing right now is - politically incorrect - a migration from Myanmar to Bangladesh, which was the rule in pre-colonial times. One has wandered back and forth, depending on the harvest situation. This had dramatic consequences only with the colonial era, when there were suddenly fixed limits. This created the problem: You are either a resident of Bangladesh or Burma .
