396:). And given the way a lot of the world has dealt with Myanmar, and given as well other events like the war in Iraq, is it perhaps surprising that the military government is extremely paranoid about what other countries may do if they give them a chance to enter Myanmar? The biggest problem is that the Myanmar government/junta doesn't recognise that no one actually cares enough about them to actually want to invade them or spy much on them, and even if someone wanted to do it, using the provision of aide as pretext for an invasion is too far, probably not for the leaders themselves in general, but for much of the populance. (China on ther other hand hasn't needed to rely on foreign workers much, and they know that even those they do allow in are not going to be a big threat to them.) But if you analyse the situation, I think it is possible to see there are several reasons why the military leaders were so paranoid about allowing foreign workers into their country and yes, the actions of various countries in the world before the cyclone had a lot to do with their paranoia. It's also a noterable point that from what I can tell, aide workers from SEA and India have had a lot less problems accessing Myanmar then those from countries who have treated Myanmar like a paria state until now, the problem is that these countries being mostly poor themselves don't have sufficient expertise or money nor is it a good idea if we start letting countries pick and choose which aide workers they want enterring their country. None of this of course justifies what the military government has done. 414:
seems misleading. China is authoritarian, but I would say that it desires to control every aspect of its citizens' lives in the same way as the Burmese Junta. In response to your question, I would say that the tragedy is mostly the result of the Burmese Junta playing politics with peoples' lives. The Junta has been organising a referendum on a new constitution, a constitution that will essentially leave the Junta in charge indefinately. The Junta's first instinct was to cover up the news of the cyclone and tell its people further upland that everything was completely fine. After that, their plan has been to hijack all incoming aid donations and use them as leverage to make sure people vote as they should - as opposed to professional aid workers, who are trained in distributing aid according to need, the Burmese military will use aid to bribe dying people into voting them into power permenantly, and will deliberately deny aid to those suspected of voting against their constitution (the dead, after all, cannot vote). Ultimately, the Burmese military is an organisation that is dedicated solely towards its own interests, and not towards Burma as a whole.
777:, they have some key features of a classic co-op and some clear differences, but accurately identifying co-ops in the UK is a nightmare job and so there's never going to be a definite answer. I would imagine that the JLP's self-identification changes depending on its leaders and the climate in the UK: now that the Conservatives have got co-ops in the news again, they obviously think it's a good idea to identify with the Movement. Which can only be a good thing. 264:
military kleptocracy. China wants the rest of the world to see it as a happy friendly place, especially now; before this week, did the average person even know Myanmar existed? In China there is no risk of a popular uprising at any moment; in Myanmar there is, and apparently they are afraid that the presence of international aid workers will make that threat worse.
