...the Myanmarians must aim at being their brothers' and sisters' keepers and must learn to build an egalitarian society of fraternal proximity, where faith, ethnic nationality, creed, philosophy, ideology, colour of one's skin do not matter, but what really does matter is that they are all Burmese and human beings or they will perish like fools.

 Get her out of the global hall of fame now!


I have never been a fan of the 1st State Counsellor and leader of the National League for Democracy, Myanmar Aung San Suu Kyi and don't think I will ever be, hence all this while I had suspended judgement on her, but after years of watching her actvities from the sideline, especially her very worrisome silence in the face of the bestial persecution of her fellow compatriots, the Rohingya muslims by her Budhist brethren, using state apparatus, the ravaging ethnic cleansing ongoing in her country has made me to conclude inevitably without holding back that she is just a fake and a hypocrite on the canvass of humanity, and an embarrassment to all that conscienctious humanity would regard as justice and fairplay, regarding her continuous ostrich tendency in the face of the current Myanmarian cruelty and purposeless malignity of the worst type towards and against the Rohingya muslims minority population who are daily being massacred in their thousands, with some of them now fleeing to neighbouring Bangladesh to seek refuge and even being blasted by the landmines buried on their fleeing routes on their way to seeming safety, in a sort of running from the fire only to end up in Myanmar's very despicable and heartless frying pan.


You do not have to be Jesus to know that such gruesomeness against the poor, hapless and defendless people is in fact, done against God and all of humanity. Nor does one have to be a Gandhi, Mandela and Mother Teresa before knowing what is right or wrong as the grace to identify/recognise injustice and speak out against such evil, wherever it exists on the surface of the earth is ingrained in all members of the broad human brotherhood right from birth, hence sister Aung cannot feign ignorance of the existenece of such bestial/ferrocious 'cannibalism' ongoing in her country.


It is a shame that a universal citizen of her stature who ought to be the eye, ear and voice of all in her little corner of the globe on behalf of God and all of the broad human family is the one tacitly encouraging this brazen and embarrassing genocide of immense proportion!


No doubt, Aung has been hastily and prematurely invited to that global hall of fame to which some of the world's finest and the Ages belong by the award in 1991 of the Nobel Peace Prize to her by the enthusiastic Western democracy exporters, which to my mind she did not deserve and shouldn't have deserved and been so given such an honour in the first place - and if anything, hers was just a mere polical 'Nobel' given to her by the West, for at the end of the day, I will not blame her per se, but those infantile democracy and the so-called human rights enthusiasts who pushed her up the global ladder of greatness without carrying out on her the needed character dissection or the needed scrutiny as to the content of her heart and actual humanistic world view, and also, all those Westerners that have been likening her to Mandiba and Mother Teresa, which in my reckoning she is neither.


A Nobel awardee ought to be the highest man, woman and the noblest of the nobles, first amongst equals, and a worthy representative/ambassador of all of humanity in her little corner of the globe, in addition to being  a global citizen.


In light of this, I hereby call for the stripping off of her Nobel Peace Prize, for a holder of such a global honour should represent all members of the human community in her part of the world, as well as having a very large heart for all, irrespective of their faith, culture, ideology, philosophy, creed, etc, for what should be of prime importance to all is that they are all Burmese and members of the global human family.


Just as Aung stands condemned for her partiality, gross irresponsibility and unspeakable wickedness against her muslim comaptriots, it is not unlikely that in the name of the current zealotry of the so-called global jihad in which the muslim brotherhood having been collecting money from Saudi Arabia, Qatar and other muslim majority nations, some Rohingya muslim leaders too may have surreptitiously benefitted financially from this delusion of islamising the world with the sole aim of introducing sharia in all the nooks and crannies of the world in order to islamise the whole of Burma, hence amongst other obvious contributory factors to the bad blood between the Burmese Budhists and the Rohingyan muslims, the backlash.


Consequently, the muslim brotherhood the world over must be careful in this delusion of theirs to islamise the whole world, so that their faith does not go into obscurity, irrelevances and subsequently becoming extinct. More, our muslim brothers and sisters must learn to co-habit with members of other faiths in a LIVE AND LET LIVE manner, if not for anything else, just for the sake of peace in their countries and in the world.
Muslims the world over must not forget that all empires, be they political, religious, cultural and ideological had always gone into extinction after all the orgiastic violence,  killings and blood-lettings and their faith cannot be an exception.


And as a matter of fact, what Islam actually does need in the 21st century is a rebirth from within, where like the Catholic church, its adherents must thenceforward be made accountable to a central global authority, the equivalent of the Catholic Pope.


Finally, the Myanmarians must aim at being their brothers' and sisters' keepers and must learn to build an egalitarian society of fraternal proximity, where faith, ethnic nationality, creed, philosophy, ideology and the colour of one's skin do not matter, but what really does matter is that they are all Burmese and human beings or they will perish like fools.
