Another Face of ABSDF

In late 1972 or early 1973 when I was a 16 year-old boy soldier in a rifle battalion of Burmese Army Northern Command in Myitkyinar I had a rather unsettling encounter with a MIS captain.

It was the last few days of our boot camp and he, as the commanding-captain of MIS (Military Intelligence Service) unit attached to our battalion, was teaching us the one-day-course appropriately titled “Information Retrieval from Captured Enemies” or Torture 101 as a couple of college students among us later re-named it.

The MIS Captain was teaching us how to force the information out of a captured or wounded enemy combatant by a systematic torture. That day all 60 of us the green-grunts were sitting cross-legged on the hard ground in a wide semi-circle around him standing in front of his little office-shed near the battalion armoury and stockade.

Strangely, he had a piercing pair of cold black eyes which were so expressionless unlike normal people as if they didn’t have a human soul behind them. Only much later in the jungle I discovered the wild animals like brown bears have same sort of eyes, the killer's eyes.

“The most effective way is to chop one or both ears off, if the prisoner still refuses to tell you where his camp is or his gun cache is hidden. Of course, only after giving him a thorough beating and if he is still stubborn,” the hard-looking MIS Captain simply told us as if he was just teaching us how to strip a G3 rifle.

“But, you can’t just jump him and chop the ears off.  There’s a psychological angle in it,” continued he. “You have to plant a dreadful fear in him. You first have to tell him calmly that you are to cut his dick off. Only after that you pull one of his ears out and slowly cut it off.”

He paused a while for a maximum affect on us and then went on with his lecture. “I emphasize the word ‘slowly’ in the cutting. So that he would receive the worst pain of his life. A blunt knife is even better.”

“My point is once you shock him by chopping his ears off and make him believe that you’re goona chop his dick off too, he will sing all his secrets away to you. What you have to do is put your knife or bayonet to his dick. He will tell you everything you wanna know. The technique worked every time I used it. I never had to cut nobody’s dick once I chopped his ears off!” 


One has to be unbelievably cruel and really inhuman to become a torturer. Many Burmese soldiers I met and served together were definitely killers but most of them are not murderers and they universally hated the torturers among them. The Burmese soldiers hate the MIS men, period. The MIS men basically were animals as that’s what they had been trained and indoctrinated to become. Like Hitler’s Nazi SS Storm Troopers.

Though I tried my best to avoid any MIS man when I was running a Seafood Importing business between Sydney and Rangoon back in Mid 1990s, I was forced into shady business dealings by a powerful MIS Colonel in Rangoon. He was a known gun runner and notorious drug trafficker. He tried and almost killed me when I simply refused to cooperate. And he basically banned me from Burma for life. He has the same soul-less animal eyes as the MIS Captain I met before in 1973. 

I think I immediately know a Burmese MIS man when I see one.
Recently I’ve been doing long hours of research and writing about 1992 ABSDF Northern Army’s atrocities in Kachin land. And the young ABSDF men who committed those atrocious and sadistic crimes have frequently kept on reminding me of the cruel MIS men I encountered during the earlier part of my life in Burma.

The similarities were shockingly striking and the evidence keeps on popping out here and there as if the perpetrators of those 1992 crimes could simply be the MIS men or MIS-trained sleepers among the decent and also gullible students, the so-called 88 Generation.

The first evidence is the near-simultaneous events of MIS Khin Nyunt’s release from Jail and the direct peace offer from Aung Min, the Union Railway Minister responsible for the ceasefire negotiations with various armed-insurgents, to the alleged-criminals Dr. Naing Aung and Moe Thee Zun. 
Both men were former ABSDF Chairmen and both were being accused as fully or partly responsible for the tortures and rapes and murders of fellow ABSDF students in the border jungles after accusing them as MIS spies.

And Aung Min a graduate of DSA Intake 13 was reportedly once the Deputy Director of MIS well before now-retired Senior General Than Shwe (A pure army man) brutally dismantled the universally-hated MIS and put its head General Khin Nyunt in jail during the 2004 power struggle.

How he became the key member of reformist President Thein Sein’s group of moderates is quite questionable as the reason for Thein Sein’s recent release of Khin Nyunt as one of the political prisoners in Burma.

The second evidence is the sworn-accounts of students detained and tortured by the MIS inside various jails in Burma during February 1992, the same time the animals of ABSDF Northern Army led by the likes of Myo Win a blood-thirsty RIT student were murdering their own innocent comrades.

Former student leader Aung Moe Win, also an RIT student, wrote that during interrogation-cum-torture sessions in the Mandalay Prison the MIS men threatened to call the ABSDF Northern Army men if their student prisoners refused to answer their questions.

And following is the direct translation of Aung Moe Win’s narration of what happened exactly in the Mandalay Prison in February 1992.

“Actually while the ABSDF North killings were happening some of my colleagues from Ba-Ka-Tha (Central Students Union – Upper Burma) had been detained in the Mandalay Prison. Every night the Mandalay MIS men dragged them out of their cells and showed them the photos (of students freshly-killed in the ABSDF’s Pajau camp right on the Chinese border) just to confirm the identities of the deceased.

This is Htun Aung Kyaw, isn’t it? Is this one Soe Win Than’s? Who is this bastard?

My friends had to cry silently later (back in their cells) after seeing the photos of close friends already killed by their own comrades. The photos apparently taken just previous nights were arriving there very soon after every killing; their only logical conclusion was that the MIS men inside ABSDF were directly reporting to MIS in Mandalay, prompt and regular.

If that was the case who were the people sending Mandalay MIS those dreadful photos?  One thing so definitely certain is that they were not the ones who had been accused of MIS spies and already been killed for that!”

The third and most direct evidence is the questionable background of ABSDF(N) General Secretary Myo Win a UTC (University Training Corps) Sergeant from RIT (Rangoon Institute of Technology) and the really sadist torturer and blood-thirsty murderer.
The following eye-witness account is from Soe Lynn a former RIT student and also a former classmate and dorm-mate of Myo Win in RIT’s Popa Hall a boys-only-dormitory for junior RIT students. (Coincidentally, I was one of the three hall-tutors in that dormitory during the 1980-81 academic-year when I was a tutor in RIT just after my graduation from the Mechanical Engineering Department.)

“I have to write some unsettling things about Myo Win (ABSDF-N) from the time when we were just young RIT students. Just something I want you all to think about. I and Myo Win got into RIT same year. In our Third Year we were in the same dormitory too (Popa Hall). What I now want to say about had happened in that year.

One day a guest from Rangoon (City) visited Win Maw (Ye-Oo) and stayed for a while there. Same time a watch was stolen (from Myo Win’s room and the suspect was the city man). So Myo Win grabbed him and searched him all over. He couldn’t find the watch. He then came into my room and told me the whole thing and asked us to help him.

At that time in my room with me were my room-mate Kyaw Zwar Myint (Mogoke) and some other Mandalay students. So we followed him to Win Maw’s room to challenge that suspected thief again. 
Once he saw us and after hearing some terrifying threats from Ba Thaw (one of the Mandalay students) he the thief (his name was Ne Win Soe if I still remember correctly) admitted and pulled the stolen watch out of his walking-shoe and gave it back to Myo Win. He also arrogantly said to Myo Win that he was so dumb he couldn’t find the hidden watch.

That made Myo Win really angry and we especially Ba Thaw was really concerned about his (Ne Win Soe’s) safety. So Ba Thaw said to him that since you gave our watch back to us you do not worry too much and I would send you up to the bus stop. He then escorted the young man out of the dormitory. Everybody in RIT knew how brutal the students could become whenever a thief was caught.

By then it was dark outside. (Between the main road where the bus stop was and the Popa Hall was a large empty field with the Tha-maing College Canteen right smack in the middle.) Once Ba Thaw and Ne Win Soe reached near the Canteen suddenly appeared from the dark behind the Canteen was Myo Win in his full army uniform from UTC and a mob of RIT students.
They immediately jumped Ne Win Soe and bashed him to death. Ba Thaw was basically pushed out of the way by the mob. We all saw it from a distance and couldn’t do a thing to save that Ne Win Soe. 

If you looked back in the newspapers of those days you will find Ne Win Soe’s death notice. That incident was in late 1986 (just over a year before the 8-8-88 Uprising started by an unfortunate incident where young Phone Maw from RIT was killed by a so-called police operation to contain the student riots born out of a tea-shop brawl between some RIT students and the local mob).”

That was a true story as a few independent eye-witnesses have confirmed that case personally. So why wasn't Myo Win arrested and charged for that murder? Myo Win seemed to have apparent impunity even for murder. In Burma only the MIS agents had had that sort of absolute impunity.
  
What the evidence and the eyewitness accounts above were indicating strongly is that Myo Win and some other so-called student leaders of ABSDF might be the MIS agents placed among the real students as the sleepers.

And as a classic case of double-cross they had blatantly and successfully accused the real student leaders like Htun Aung Kyaw and other genuine students as the MIS agents and tortured the false confessions out of them and finally murdered them all.

The scariest thing is if ABSDF North really has been infiltrated and controlled by the Khin Nyunt’s MIS from the very beginning how about the ABSDF South or Central with similar cases of MIS accusations and killing spree there?

They Are Terrorize 4

The Voice Weekly
The Voice Weekly
According to the situation currently happening in Sittwe – the city of Rakhine state in Western Myanmar, Bengali Rohingyas illegal immigrants from Bangladesh had set up the terrorists plot earlier before the violence and riot broke out.

The local man said, “From what had happened until now, it is very obvious that their deadly violent and destructive actions were well plotted. Yesterday, they tried to destroy the whole village by starting to torch their own houses which could also burn down all other houses nearby in Minwon village. And then, they accused us of destroying their houses. Today, the village is militarily guarded alongside the police. After the noon, they started torching the villages of Danyawaddy, Naazi, Thantawli, Byianphyu, and Makyeemyaing on the advantage of the weak security systems”.

On 11th June 2012, the groups of Bengali-Rohingyas from Naazi and Thantawli villages took the severely destructive actions whereas the groups from Bumay village did on 10th June.
The Bengali-rohingyas from Amberi, Naazi and Bumay villages besieged the city Sittwe where there is less population of Bengali-Rohingyas rioters who had already left their houses. The problem is that the Bengali Rohingyas rioters surround the city and constantly cause the series of destructions in the areas where the security system are not strong enough to stop them. Therefore, the locals are taking up the important roles to protect themselves and also their areas. The coastal areas surrounding the city have the large population of Bengali Rohingyas residents; as the consequence, the local villagers such as the residents in Byanphyu living nearby are in the danger as these areas are not militarily protected, not even by the police. When the rioters started the destructive acting, the civic guards also arrived the scene late.

“There was no riot or problem between Bengali-Rohingyas and the local Rakhineses in the Sittwe city. But the locals were alarmed to take the actions of protecting themselves, their houses and areas followed by the torching of Bengali Rohingyas to the locals’ houses. They continued setting the fire to their houses to make the burning across to all other locals’ houses and they planned to get themselves out of the city and join other rioters while the locals were trying to extinguish the fire, or they are locked in the city. ” told by the Rakhinese.

“They are better than Rakhineses in the marine-related skills. The sea is their only way-out, so now they are planning to reach to the streams and rivers connected to the sea. The city itself is the island alike, situated in the coastal area and surrounded by the river. From the village of Bumay, all other villages with the large populations of Bengali Rohingyas rioters are at the coastal areas which support them to come to the land and escape easily. The rioters are waiting for their people inside the city to get out and join them. That is why they keep burning down the all other places near to the city to distract the locals and security forces.” told by the local Rakhinese.

The order to shoot to any rioter is already released, but no shooting at all, only gun-firing into the air to stop their violence. Some says that some rioters were arrested, but can’t say exactly how many of them. There are the additions to the security forces such as BEMP,GE,Ka-Ma-Ya 354, and other two groups, but this also can’t be confirmed. The problem is due to the lack of security forces in the areas, the locals are required to protect themselves with the bamboo sticks and other homemade weapons. These Bengali Rohingyas rioters only retreat from the areas when the forces arrive.” told by the local Rakhinese. They are continuously lasing out in a sudden and intense violence in many areas.
Apparently, all the properties in the districts surrounding to the city were burnt down by the Bengali Rohingyas rioters. Therefore, the Rakhaineses counterattacked them by torching some houses of Bengali Rohingyas in Shwepya district where all the Bengali Rohingyas had already left their houses to join their groups of riot.

Not only did the Bengali Rohingyas rioters from the Naazi village burn down all monasteries in the village, but they also destroyed all other monasteries such as Shwebamann, thaungdara, and Yatha Dhamma which are near to the hill of Arkyatkhun. The venerables and monks closely escaped their severe violence. Now the hundreds of these rioters are residing in the monasteries and camping to further attack to other monasteries on the hill. They tried to attack and destroy the left monasteries, but their actions were temporarily prevented by the local people from the villages near to the hill.

Today afternoon, the Rohingyas rioters of Thantawli and local Rakhineses of Byanphyu had the clash as a result of the rioters’ attempt to destroy the village. 4 Rakhineses men were chopped to death by the Bengali Rohingyas rioters. Among them, 2 corpses were taken by the Bengali Rohingyas, and only returned to the families after the request of the police and security forces to them.

The local man in Sithwe city expresses what he feels. He said “We do not understand why they commit such a violence and destruction. We are always peaceful to them as long as they are to us. Now both parties are in the lose-lose situation. We can’t do anything like earning a living, but only protecting and guarding ourselves. Both parties are running out of the foods. Now the rescue campaigns are also facing the problems of foods shortage. We do not understand at all, that why they want to create all these problems.”

In today morning, 5 of burnt corpses of Bengali Rohingyas were found in the district of Myothugyi near to the coastal area in Sittwe city. From the yesterday clash, there were 4 deaths of Rakhineses and 2 of Bengali Rohingyas.

Myanmar President Thein Sein's Declaration of Arrakan Emergency in Myanmar.

BANGKOK — Myanmar on Sunday declared a state of emergency in a western state where at least 17 people have been killed this month in sectarian violence between Buddhists and Muslims.

The violence poses another obstacle to the government of President Thein Sein as he tries to open up the country after years of isolation imposed by a military junta and steer it toward democracy.

Soldiers and police officers are trying to restore order in villages where clashes between Buddhists and Muslims have left many villagers wounded and 500 homes burned on Friday and Saturday alone. Four people were wounded in clashes on Sunday, The Associated Press reported.

President Thein Sein's Original Declaration of Arrakan Emergency in Myanmar.
Mr. Thein Sein, a former general, announced the state of emergency on national television on Sunday evening. It was unclear what the practical consequences of emergency rule would be; the military and the police in Myanmar, formerly known as Burma, already wield significant power despite the country’s move toward democracy.

Mr. Thein Sein has made national reconciliation between the Burmese majority and the country’s vast patchwork of ethnic group a priority of his presidency.

Thein Sein Addressing the Nation on the Arrakan Emergency.
But the tensions near the border with Bangladesh fall outside the scope of reconciliation efforts because they involve people from a Muslim ethnic group, the Rohingya, whose members the government does not recognize as citizens.

Tensions in the area had been building for several months, according to Chris Lewa, an expert on the Rohingya who has championed their cause.

Myanmar’s government has not proposed a solution for the 800,000 Rohingya, who live in conditions that resemble refugee camps and make up one of the largest groups of stateless people in Asia.

There are fears inside Myanmar that the clashes could widen into a broader religious conflict. In recent days, Buddhist and Muslim groups have held relatively small separate protests in Myanmar’s main city, Yangon.
Troops Facing the Bengali Muslim Rioters in Maungdaw.

In one sign that passions are running high, the Web site of Eleven Media Group, publisher of one of the country’s leading weekly newspapers, displayed a string of hateful comments about Muslims from readers.

“Terrorist is terrorist,” wrote one reader who signed in as Maungpho. “Just kill them.”

U Ko Ko Gyi, a former political prisoner who is helping lead efforts to ease religious tensions, said he was concerned by the “emotional response” to the clashes. “We have to calm down and find an intellectual solution to the problem,” he said.

Muslims leaders have urged calm in recent days, and the National League for Democracy, the party of the Nobel laureate Daw Aung San Suu Kyi, issued a statement on Saturday calling on the government to restore order. About 90 percent of Myanmar’s population is Buddhist; Muslims account for about 4 percent.

For now the government appears to be confident that the clashes can be contained.

“It’s not likely that this will spread,” said U Tin Maung Thann, the president of a research organization in Yangon who is helping lead the government’s peace talks with other ethnic groups. “The Muslim community within Burma proper have long experience living with the Buddhist majority.”

In recent weeks Mr. Thein Sein’s government has faced protests in several cities over electricity cutoffs and strikes at factories outside Yangon. The government’s tolerance for these demonstrations has reinforced the idea that the country is moving away from years of military dictatorship, but the protests also underscore the long list of challenges and demands facing Mr. Thein Sein as he tries to carry out his reform program.

The violence in Rakhine State was set off by the rape and murder of a Buddhist last month, according to Ms. Lewa, which prompted a series of “revenge attacks.” On June 3, 10 Muslim men were reportedly dragged from a bus and killed. On Friday, mobs of Muslim men attacked Buddhist villagers, leaving seven people dead, according to Burmese media.

Photographs over the weekend showed villagers in the affected area carrying swords and sharpened bamboo poles.

In this generally impoverished country, the Rohingya, many of whom who have been in Myanmar for several generations, are perhaps the most vulnerable minority, plagued by what one United Nations official has called a “chronic crisis.”

They are not allowed to own land, they suffer frequent food shortages and they are technically restricted from travel outside of Rakhine, which borders Bangladesh. Thousands have fled the country by boat in recent years seeking work in Malaysia and other neighboring countries. There are also hundreds of thousands of Rohingya on the Bangladeshi side of the border.

The Rohingya issue stirs a strong nationalist response even among the most liberal members of Burmese society. Mr. Ko Ko Gyi, who spent 18 years in prison for opposing the previous military government, said that the Rohingya were not one of the country’s accepted nationalities and that the “international community” must find a solution to the problem of their statelessness.

“This a question of national sovereignty,” he said. “Anybody who wants Myanmar citizenship will have to learn one of Myanmar’s national languages and learn about our culture.”

Yakhine (Arrakan) State Map in Burmese.
A survey carried out on the Myanmar side of the border by the United Nations in June 2008 found that more than half of Rohingya were illiterate.

There is no hard-and-fast definition of what constitutes the Rohingya, whose skin is typically darker than the Burmese. Muslims living in the northernmost reaches of Rakhine State are generally called Rohingya regardless of their ancestry. Government officials often refer to them as Bengalis.

BBC (or) The World Biggest Cheatings

photo-News of Myanmar
June 8, 2012                                                                
Maung Daw, Arakan State, Myanmar 

A ridiculous news was broadcast from BBC World news.

They used the title "Burma police fire on protestors". It was totally a false news.
It is only a half true/half false propaganda. Without shame, they used a term " Muslim minority" in Maung Daw at Arakan State.In fact, such Muslims are known as Rohingyas who are illegally migrated Bengalis. Around 98% of local residence in Maung Daw are Rohingyas who passed through border line between Myanmar and Bangladesh. Gradually, original ethnic Rakhines (Arakanese) became minorities in Maung Daw township, their native town.

On social networks like facebook and twitter and official pages of Burmese Exile Medias, main message of almost all news are that Muslims are fought dead;Muslims were oppressed; poor rohingyas. In reality, it is  a planned and intentional actions to spread fake news to make Myanmar more vulnerable to foreign pressures.They are twisting true facts to become wrong in such a way that Myanmar Police Forces are firing into the Muslim Protestors just for oppression.

The truth is that Maung Daw was in chaos with the atmosphere filled with terror and violence on local Arakanese (Rakhines) which necessarily claims immediate control of police forces. Otherwise, massacre committed by Bengali Rohigyas will be fully carried out. In such case, biased and money-driven Media, and lobbying organizations made Myanmar to be ashamed of such violence and chaos.

In history, Arakanese (Rakhines), a major ethnic group in Myanmar, served as a human barrier to stop influx of Bengali migrants for several decades. Moreover, other major ethnics like Burmese, Shan, Karen, Kachin, Chin, etc haven't become aware of such social conflicts in that geographically and demographically dangerous area. Due to political instability inside Myanmar, such news can't be headlines in state medias and exile Burmese medias.However, lastly, real things taking place in Arakan state can no longer be hidden.

Most of exile Burmese media may be intentionally failed to broadcast news about violent attacks occurred  in Maung Daw. At  Maung Daw near Burma-Bangladesh border,thousands of Bengali Rohigyas destroyed houses and properties of local rakhines and burned them down. Temples, schools and local stores were completely destroyed. Homes around Myoma Buddhist Temple were set on fire and consequently every Arakanese (Rakhine) fled to secure places. Many local Arakanese (Rakhines) were brutally murderd by such Bengali including elderly and children. Arakanese (Rakhines) ran way for their survival leaving whatever they have.
The beginning of the whole process
On 28 of May, 2012, Thida Htwe, 26 yrs old,  Arakanese lady was raped by three Bengali and murdered. Her neck was cut with a sharp weapon and her vagina was penetrated until it was lacerated completely. Thida Htwe whowas a tailor was  murdered on the way back to her native village called Tha Pyay Chaung.This case sparked racial tensions among Rakhines and immigrant Bengali rohingyas. Consequently, many Arakanese marched towards Rambree Police Station on 30th of May, the funeral day of Thida Htwe to protest for justice. Criminals were arrested within 48 hours after Thida Htwe was murdered. They are Htet Htet(23), Rauphi(18) and Luyu (21) and now kept in police custody.However, on 3rd of June, 10 native Muslims were beaten till dead in the rage by local Rakines at Taung Gote township on their return to Yangon. 6 were from Taung Twin Gyi, 2 from Myaung Mya and the other two from Than Dwe township, according to the state medias.

Following such crisis, Muslims in Rangoon rallied at city center near Sule Pagoda to protest against
the case of murdered 10 Muslims and the term Kala referring native Muslims which might be a discriminating term in most Muslims' view, stated in State Medias. Myanmar government responded such demonstrations by giving promises to seek justice and commissioned a special task force to investigate that case.

On the 3rd of June also, U Aung Than Wai, a team leader for shopkeepers in a bazaar near Sittwe was missing temporarily and that was a causative factor for a small conflict in Set Yone Su quarter, Sittwe. U Aung Than Wai was a key figure in presenting problems of marketers in that bazaar particularly for high daily tax on each shop.Actually, the tax collection right was auctioned on 2nd June, 2012 already and Bengali groups won it in that auction. Aung Than Wai was threatened by Bengali gangs for his claims on behalf of other shop owners and so he was hidden at his cousin's house.

Around 7 o'clock on the same date, Daw Aung Than Mya with other 10 ladies reported to Sittwe Police Station about her husband missing after small conflicts between Bengali gangs and Aung Than Wai occured. In the mean time, up to 200 Arakanese (Rakhine)  people gathered in front of Sittwe Police Station (1) and the local civil authority chief, U Aung Mya Kyaw, came and promised to look for Aung Than Wai. After that, Aung Than Wai's family went back. But around 11.45 p.m, U Aung Than Wai appeared in front of the waiting Arakanese crowd showing his national identity card and went into police station probably for more security. The crowd started to claim to arrest Bengali gangs. The Arakanese crowd tried to raid police station which was why they were cracked down by police force using guns and gas bombs. 11 rakhines were injured in that case. Up to this stage, it is clear that both sides are responsible for crimes committed in Arakan state and Myanmar government was trying best to control the situation.

8th June, 2012

On Friday, Islamic Bengali worship at central mosque in Maung Daw. Around 1 o'clock,  nearly a thousand of Bengali Rohingyas started to create riots in front of Kan Baw Za Bank. They threw stones into "United" guest house and a house. Around 2 p.m. , a market branch was burned including Thazin guest house in front of Thiri Min Galar central hall and 6 local shops were burned down. After that, Baho monastry was set on fire and the fire spread to Bohmu village. In Myo Oo quarter in Maung Daw, two homes were burned and monasteries at Kha Yay Myine village and Nyaung Chaung village were burned as well.
 
5.15 p.m 8th June 2012

Polices were patrolling and arranging demolished Arakanese(Rakhine) to move towards secure places. At that time, from the building owned by a currency broker Zaw Hein, Bengali rohingyas unexpectedly shot into the civilian crowd and the police were confronted with armed Bengali rioters. Armed rioters at Zaw Hein's building are supposed to be around 10 people. A police officer confirmed that they have already got information about arms collected by terrorists in that township. But connections between armed Bengali rohingyas and such arm collections are not approved yet. It was reported that gun shots has caused causalities but number of injured were not known yet. The injured were sent to Sittwe hospital.
In that evening also, nearly 20 Bengali rioters raided Maung Daw hospital  and medical staff have moved to secure places. Two homes in front of that hospital were burned also and people were moved to safe monasteries. 

Currently realesed list of causalities are as follows.
(1)Dr Khin Maung Latt, 63, stabbed abdomen
(2)Daw Than Yee (57), incised wound over scalp (reported that expired)
(3)U Kyaw Hla (78), incised wound over scalp
(4)U Thein Zaw (36), incised wounds over extremities
(5)U Hla Maung (65), several stabbed and incised wounds on body (expired)
(6) Four female teachers were murdered. Dead bodies of two were at hospital. (9th June)

In Sittwe,a funeral activity line was interrupted by Bengali from The Chaung village and three vehicles in the line turned back but the rest of two were left behind and unable to contact them. So, security forces and nearly 20 monks went to there and secured. In Sittwe University, attacks occurred between Bengali groups and Arakanese groups. But they are settled by Arakan local government minister.

According to a person from Sittwe,capital of Arakan State, he thought that chaotic condition is likely to lead to religious conflicts rather than racial tensions.

"In the morning, they (Bengali) made meetings inside mosques.Half of the population in Sittwe are Bengali. We feel insecure now", he says.

Four villagers from Min Gan were attacked and treated at Sittwe hospital. Currently, Maung Daw is under military control. Around 200 Bengali surrounded the police station at San Pya village and so police tried to deter them by firing into the air.

Around 30 arakanese villages were burned down and Laung Don police station in Maung Daw district was surrounded by Bengali.  A number of children were dead and Wai Thar Li monastery.
was also set on fire. Target areas were within 5 miles from Maund Daw city center. And there was a small battle between Al Qaeda supported Rohingya Solidarity Organization and Myanmar Army in the river. RSO was reportedly said that it has connections with Al Qaeda and their troops were sent to operate in Afghanistan.

For such riots, Ko Ko Gyi, a student leader of 88 generations said that those problems can be partly due to exile forces and lobbying organizations working in some western countries. He says

" We want to say that some countries without knowing true history but trying to intervene in rohingya issues might be viewed as a threat to national sovereignty. Rohingyas has no tie with any of our ethnic groups genetically, culturally or linguistically. Because of local political tensions, successive governments have agreed to accept them according to requests frominternational organizations. This is just the sole aid from human right perspective" Ko Ko Gyi says.

"Clearly, this isn't a conflict between Buddhists and Islamist. And I believe that such problems might not be free from foreign proxies" Ko Ko Gyi says.U Khin Yee, Minister of Immigration, confirmed that Rohingya is not an ethnic group of Myanmar.

Maund Daw is under carfew and Myanmar troops entered Maung Daw to rescue Arakanese people blocked in some quarters. Bengali crowds rallied at burned Bo Hmu village are now marching towards Maund Daw. Sounds of gun fire are still heard and every one is now alert for security. From some resources, it is reported that majority of Myanmar military troops in Arakan state are now in place at Maung Daw township. They  suspect that armed Bengali thugs can have strong connections with Al Qaeda supported Rohingya Solidarity Organizaion, a terrorist organization listed by the US government.

Lastly, we all Myanmar citizens view this problem as
" Foreign Invasion and The Threat to National Security"

They Confess,Rohingya is not Myanmar.

Ko Ko Gyi and Min Ko Naing
Ko Ko Gyi and Min Ko Naing
Ko Ko Gyi: Unless inevitable, we tried to avoid some issues patiently. Now it is time that we announce our view on Rohingya clearly. Rohingya is not one of the ethnic groups of Myanmar at all. We see that the riot happening currently in Buthedaung and Maungdaw of Arakan State is because of the illegal immigrants from Bangladesh called “Rohingya” and mischievous provocation of some international communities. Therefore, such interfering efforts by some powerful nations on this issue (Rohingya issue), without fully understanding the ethnic groups and other situations of Burma, will be viewed as offending the sovereignty of our nation. Genetically, culturally and linguistically Rohingya is not absolutely related to any ethnicity in Myanmar. In terms of citizenship, I would state separately. As we share the borders with other countries, we have some Chinese and Indian descents. They have been living in our country for generations and citizenship has been granted to them. We do not discriminate based on any race for granting the citizenship even if he is a Bengali. They should be protected in the same way as citizens of Myanmar.But, if we were forcefully pressured to accept Rohigya as one of the ethnic groups (of Burma), we won’t tolerate that. Even in America, to get the citizenship, people are tested on how well they know English language, how much they know about the culture of the country, and how long they have been living in the country, through the interviews. In our country, to get the citizenship, it is needed to know at least an ethnic language well and the person must have lived here for generations and know the cultures of the people to some extent. If we are forced to relax our citizenship rules and process and to deal with them unmindfully, we won’t tolerate it at all. For having good international relationship, we have repeatedly deferred to a lot of requests throughout the successive governments. We considered the case from the humanitarian point of view and accepted (Bengali) as refugees. Since no country wants to take them in, we feel sympathy for those people on the ground of humanity and refugee. Taking advantage of our kindness and deference, if the powerful countries forced us to take responsibility for this issue, we will never accept it. Concerning with the sovereignty, if we are forced to yield by any country, we, the army and democratic force will deal the issue together as a national issue.

Ko Mya Aye:I got out of prison. Even before I got out of prison, Rohingya issue has become a hot issue. It has become not only a hot issue in international political community, but also a crow-pleasing issue that can generate fund. Most of the Rohingya belong to Islam faith. Well, almost all of them. In order to become one of the ethnic groups, I think they tried to bond with Myanmar Muslims and have been pushing this issue to become a religious issue. That’s what Ko Ko Gyi implied by “provocation from abroad”. This has been happening for decades. 

Ko Ko Gyi:Therefore, Rohingya issue is not a Muslim (religious) issue. We need to be clear on that. I see that the fact that Rohingya people working with Myanmar Muslims is very suspicious.

Ko Mya Aye:We have repeatedly expressed 8888 Generation Students view since the incident occurred. Yesterday, we have contacted the authorities and shared what we have heard with them. To be honest, we have told them to have all the tight security measures in place. Now we heard of this news (terrorist act against the ethnic Rakhine people). It is not totally, totally, acceptable. I strongly, strongly denounce the fact that houses belonging to the ethnic Rakhine people were burnt down. First of all, I request that the government take responsibility of the security of the ethnic Rakhine people whose houses have been burnt down. Please find out who commit such anarchic acts that create more hatred among people and that would push the country into turmoil and punish those culprits. Especially, Maungdaw shares the border with the neighboring country (Bangladesh). Because of that the ethnic Rakhine are the minority there. In a civilized society, the majority does not bully the minority. It only occurs in an uncivilized society. Therefore, it has nothing to do with race or religion. On behalf of 8888 Generation Students, I demand to charge and punish those ruthless perpetrators effectively and strongly no matter which race they belong to and no matter which God they worship. 

Min Ko Naing:It is the most important to prevent the incitement that would cause riots and bloodshed among citizens. Therefore, I don’t want anyone to name the current events as riots between Muslims and Buddhists. Especially, it is very important for the media to control the current situation. On internet and Facebook, we find comments based on emotion and cheering by the people who have no profile picture. We all must control things wisely. Because at one place, Buddhists would probably be a majority but at another place, there are many Buddhists who lives among Muslims. Therefore, the more powerful people should not harm the less powerful people anyhow. Not even saying things like threatening. It is time to protect each other. It is time to protect the minority by the majority. If they not only protect each other and if they not only threaten each other, if they even take lives and destroy the public property, do not save any face. We must protect all altogether. The authorities would also have to take necessary measures. We have already started our efforts to protect at nearby places. I would like to urge the people to protect each other purposely in a collective and united way.

(Eleven Media Group)- Dozens of Rakhine people were killed amidst the Rohingya terrorist attacks in border town of Maungdaw in Rakhine State, the western part of Myanmar on Friday.

Due to the violence, hundreds of houses and buildings were burnt down by mobs, said the reporter Ko Win Maung of the Eleven Media at the scene.

The death toll in the incident has reached 20 to 30 until the night of 8 June and the injured persons nearby villages of Maundaw Township have been taken to Maungdaw hospital.

The onset of the violence on 8 June was that the Rohingya Muslims who returned from the mosque yesterday afternoon started throwing the stones to the Rakhine houses and buildings in Maungdaw Township, according to the Eleven Media reporter whose house was also blazed amidst the violence.

As the riots could not be controlled, the police forces took security measures in the town where Muslims are majority and Rakhine people are minority. Rohingya mobs were setting fire on the nearby villages of Rakhine ethnics, said a Buddhist monk who resides in Maungdaw Township.

Due to these unrests, the State-owned media aired the announcement of Section 144 of the Criminal Procedure Code (Curfew) which states people are not to go outside between 18:00 pm and 06:00 am in Maungdaw and Buthedaung townships.

In contrary to the reporting of foreign media, the army did not fire at the mobs, but just warning shots to the riot to help the security measures of police forces, according to the EMG reporter in Maundaw Township where the clashes are happening.

Highly prominent journalist Dr. Than Htut Aung, Chairman and CEO of the Eleven Media Group said, “Up to now, the handling of army in this violence is smooth and flexible.  It was reportedly known that the military fired only the warning shots. Although the case seemed to be the problem between the Muslims and the Buddhists, there may be some incitements behind the incident.”

As the Rohingya mobs are approaching to enter the town and nearby villages, the security forces are taking places there and conducting warning fires to them.

“The situations in Maungdaw Township are very serious. The problem should be solved by legal procedures. We do not accept anarchic actions. Security forces concerned should settle the problem systematically. We must control the situation not to spread. If the problem becomes bigger, it is possible to result in series of cases. I warned the possibility of problems in Maungdaw after the case of Sittway. These attacks would seriously threaten to Arakanese people not only in Buthidaung and Maungdaw townships, but also in some areas with minority of them. The government has responsibilities to calm down the worries of these people. In the future, the security of border area in Rakhine State should be taken by Rakhine people, and that of Shan State by Shan people. Paramilitary forces should be organized to safeguard the security of respective areas. The government should allow more security plans. We will also submit these plans to the parliament. If this incident is similar to massacre of 1942 which was intentionally plotted, the persons behind the curtain are responsible for the consequences. Security persons, international figures and religious leaders should not neglect the case. They should cooperate in solving this problem,” said Chairman Dr. Aye Maung of the Rakhine Ethnics Development Party.

On 8 June 2012, a tragedy struck the Arankan State of Myanmar. The native Arankanese civilians were severely attacked by Rohingya terrorists, who are the illegal immigrants from Bangladesh. It was a well-organized attacked by a Muslim insurgent group called Rohingya Solidarity Organization (RSO). RSO was formed in 1982 by the remaining Mujahideens who were defeated by the Burmese Army in 1978's Dragon King Operations.
Over the past decade, RSO has developed connections with similar Muslim extremist organizations in Bangladesh, Pakistan and Afghanistan. Their aim is to create an autonomous state on Arakan land uniting the existing illegal Rohingya immigrants in Arankan State and Rohingyas from Bangladesh. Over the years, RSO gains their finances through criminal activities such as smuggling of guns and drugs between Bangladesh and Arakan State. They also receive massive funds from charities from Islamic organizations from middle east nations.

During 1990s, with the help of an extreme Sunni Muslim Organization HuJI, RSO managed to connect to Al Qaeda. Soon, thousands of RSO members were sent to Libya to attend terrorist training courses arranged by Al Qaeda. They even served in Al Qaeda army as porters and mine clearance specialists.

In 2001, the authorities from the United States seized several videotapes and records from an Al Qaeda base in Afghanistan. One of the records showed that the RSO of Burma is listed as the followers of Al Qaeda. A tape which showed a group of RSO participating in the Al Qaeda's operations was found as well. According to their findings, the US academic claimed that the largest Al Qaeda cell in South-East Asia is supposed to somewhere near Myanmar-Bangladesh border. They also expected that the number of RSO terrorists would grow.
With strong funding from Arab nations, Rohingya advocates have successfully bribed exile medias of Myanmar and have them fabricated pathetic tales about how the Myanmar Government violated human rights on Rohingyas. Evidently, photographs of Han Yaung Wai, the Chairman of Democratic Voice of Burma, were released. In the photographs, he was seen signing a suspiciously Rohingya-promotion-agreement with some Arabs.

Due to the massive population growth of Bangladesh, it is obvious that the Rohingya aka the Bengali of Bangladesh native have been eyeing the neighboring Arankan land. Over the years, with the help of corrupted immigration officers, they have managed to infiltrate into the Arankan State. It was once reported locally that an average of 800 Rohingyas are sneaking into the country a day. These illegal immigrants bring more harm than benefits to the country by committing gang rapes, smuggling of firearms and drugs, conducting racial attacks especially on the Arankan land. However, due to the weak channelling of local medias, none of the incidents nor the crimes committed by them were made known to the international entities. The truth about Rohingyas which very few people know is that Rohingyas are not just stateless refugees. They are terrorists who try to invade the Arankan State of Myanmar.
