First of all, I would like to salute both of you for your relentless endeavor for the robust recovery of our country. For Senior General, you have gone extraordinary length to maintain stability and progress to our country. For Daw Aung San Suu Kyi, few could be commensurable to your conviction and selfless sacrifices in our country’s contemporary history. We are hoping to see a peaceful and happy state in a near future due to your joint efforts.
Secondly, democratic society which has been in the great expectation held by our people and the international community could be materialized very soon through the mutual cooperation between two of you. To this effect, there would be only one step away.
Difficult as this last step may seem to take off, your patriotic, selfless and farsighted wisdom should gird up your loin to achieve it.
In view of the importance of that you have to part ways with some errors. It is admirable to do the right thing as well as to admit mistakes. Everybody tends to rationalize what they do is always correct.
Evidently to err is human and we have to accept the fact that we all make mistakes and wrong judgments. People of Burma will forgive because on the part of public opinion you have done in the belief for the best interest of the country.
To Daw Aung Sann Su Kyi, it is rather a choice than a mistake; out of compassion you envisaged a non-violent mean to bring about democracy. So much is for the idea that you got nowhere near your goal even though the whole country rallied behind you. Nor can it bring peace and democracy to the people. NLD could not do wonders in contributing the good results for the national movement either.
Inadequacy of this approach became apparent when SPDC attempted to obliterate both Daw Aung San Suu Kyi and NLD in 2003. Out of sheer luck, Daw Aung San Suu Kyi survived the assassination attempt. This luck does not come twice. Crucial to its success is to press through to achievement of democracy before the next plot. NLD was dying at that time in spite of the fact that some executive committee members were set free to soldier on.
Tragically NLD is in its last breath now with its head, Daw Aung San Suu Kyi and U Tin Oo cut off from the party and I do not believe SPDC will contemplate to spare the body. The outlook of NLD is exceedingly bleak.
Matters are aggravated by the fact that NLD set off the latest bout of frictions among the central executive committee members. U Aung Shwe, U Lwin, U Khin Mg Swe and U Win Tin are leading the party in different views, and lawyers and spoke persons are also striking the different tone. They have been divided more than SPDC needs to see. continue
