I am convinced that it is enough for us to fight these destroyer of country, fistly downgrade education, secondly ruined religion, thirdly submit to wicked chinese earth and water. Sqaurely we face problem, we had lack of unity and leadership, by this I mean that we should fight prepared battle with good unity and trained leadership rather than emotional one. While I acknowledge that NLD is strongest institution to fight evil, I would like to argue that NLD has lack of plan and regeneration of new leadership, we can witness clearly the achievement of NCGUB. In my opinion, we should learn from our failure and prepare for coming struggle. I would like to conclude that, Firstly, we have to nurture new generation leadership, Secondly, we should have movement, every movement has potential to growth. Thirdly, rather than we just hope outside powers to fullfill our needs, we have to bear this needs as our responsibilties. If necessery we should arms ourselves. There is a will, there is a way. Wake up all burmese, we will win this battle. We should stop blaming others, hoping from others.

We could hear the cries coming out during the night raid. The junta is still looking 4 more monke to torture and beat to death and disability. At the same time, they gave the packs of lies to Burmese people and world media. What an evil power the junta is!

For one instance, the monastery at an obscure neighborhood of Yangon, called Ngwe Kyar Yan (on Wei-za-yan-tar Road, Yangon) had been raided early this morning. A troop of lone-tein (riot police comprised of paid thugs) protected by the military trucks, raided the monastery with 200 studying monks. They systematically ordered all the monks to line up and banged and crushed each one's head against the brick wall of the monastery. One by one, the peaceful, non resisting monks, fell to the ground, screaming in pain. Then, they tore off the red robes and threw them all in the military trucks (like rice bags) and took the bodies away. The head monk of the monastery, was tied up in the middle of the monastery, tortured , bludgeoned, and later died the same day, today. Tens of thousands of people gathered outside the monastery, warded off by troops with bayoneted rifles, unable to help their helpless monks being slaughtered inside the monastery. Their every try to forge ahead was met with the bayonets. When all is done, only 10 out of 200 remained alive, hiding in the monastery.
