Suu Kyi Tourism on the Burma Itinerary
Western tourists check out t-shirts bearing the image of Aung San Suu Kyi at a stall outside the NLD headquarters in Rangoon (PHOTO: Hpyo Wai Tha / The Irrawaddy)
ANGOON—If you are currently visiting Rangoon, perhaps it's an idea to leave your guide book behind in the hotel, and instead add to your itinerary two new attractions that are probably never included in the tourist program.
The first sightseeing location would be the headquarters of the country's main opposition party, the National League for Democracy (NLD). Previously any visitor to this modest building in Bahan Township was treated with suspicion, and the military authorities did not hesitate to take anyone loitering around into custody for questioning.
On Thursday morning, a tour bus pulled up in front of the NLD office, just a stone's throw from Shwedagon Pagoda, and tourists of different ages from different countries descended the bus and immediately began snapping pictures of the NLD flag flying above the entranceway. Some even posed for snap shots with party members.
"In the past, we could only take pictures [of the NLD office] from a passing vehicle," said Christophe, 45, a Frenchman who is on his second visit to the country.
Inside the building, the foreign visitors flock to the counter where they can buy party memorabilia ranging from key chains to coffee mugs to T-shirts bearing the image of pro-democracy icon Aung San Suu Kyi.
"Does someone have any extra kyat?" a gentleman with a European accent asks, waving a US $100 note.
"We have foreign visitors every day who just come here to have a look at the office and buy some NLD souvenirs,” said Daw Le Le, 64, a member of the campaign finance committee. “Some drop in alone. Others come in groups.”
"This is the second time this week I have brought tourists to the NLD headquarters,” said a tour guide. “Our next stop is Auntie's house.”
And so the visitors got back on the bus and headed north on the short drive to Inya Lake where the second stop on the day's itinerary—and undoubtedly the most highly anticipated—was a visit to Suu Kyi's house.
Even though they knew that they wouldn't be allowed to go inside, the foreign tourists wanted to pay a visit to the famous Rangoon landmark “if only to catch a glimpse of her.”
Mary James, a retired teacher from Louisiana, said, “I can't believe this is where Suu Kyi spent 15 of the past 20 years under house arrest. We have taken a few pictures outside the gate.”
Since the release of Burma's charismatic opposition leader in late 2010, Burma has seen a steady increase in visitor numbers, and the Southeast Asian country suddenly became one of the hottest destinations in the region after Suu Kyi declared: “We want people to come to Burma” in the summer of 2011.
The NLD has withdrawn its call for tourists to boycott Burma, and has instead adopted a policy of calling for “responsible tourism,” or as the party says: “The NLD would welcome visitors who are keen to promote the welfare of the common people and the conservation of the environment and to acquire an insight into the cultural, political and social life of the country … ”
High recommendations from Lonely Planet, CNN and other leading publications naming Burma, or Myanmar, as one of the top places to visit in 2012 has resulted in a sudden influx of tourists, despite the fact that the country's tourism industry is still not ready to handle mass tourism.
Inside some huts across the road from the NLD headquarters, armed security keep a watchful eye on the entrance to the office.
"We haven't had any complaints from our visitors or reports that they were intimidated by the authorities for coming here,” said a tour operator.
Christophe admitted that he had felt somewhat nervous about Burma's notorious military personnel.
"But we are only here for a visit—nothing political—and we are just buying some party souvenirs,” he said. “If it's OK for other visitors to come here, I see no harm in it for me, too.”

Shan army calls for end to state abuse
A ceasefire recently agreed between the government and the Shan State Army will be “meaningless” unless Burmese troops end exploitation and violence against civilians in the eastern state, the rebel group warned yesterday as hundreds gathered at its headquarters on the Thai-Burma border.
The two sides signed a pact last month that they hope will bring to an end decades of fighting in the volatile state, which is home to some six million ethnic Shan.
But the Shan State Army (SSA) has voiced concern about the finer details of the agreement, which includes allowing Burmese troops to pass through their territory. Moreover, they have demanded that the Burmese army end ingrained abuses practices in civilian areas that it has largely been able to carry out with impunity.
“If [the army] continues to oppress and commit crimes against the people, such as subjecting them to forced labour, forced relocation, rape and extrajudicial killing, and scorched villages, then the ceasefire will be meaningless,” said a statement read out yesterday at the group’s 65th Shan National Day at Loi Taileng.
The SSA is one of a number of ethnic armies to have signed truces with the government in past two months, although what was billed as a ceasefire with the Karen National Union (KNU) has been mired in controversy: the KNU’s leader, Zipporah Sein, said recently that no official agreement had been made, and that the team sent to negotiate with government officials on 12 January were not in a position to accept terms.
The SSA’s conflict with the central government stretches back nearly half a century. Shortly after it was formed in 1964 it split into two factions, with what came be known as the Shan State Army–North (SSA-N) allying itself with the government.
That relationship appeared to be on the rocks last year after fighting broke out between Burmese troops and the SSA-N, following the latter’s refusal to become a Border Guard Force.
But in late January the SSA-N also agreed a truce with the government, and both factions await further negotiations regarding territory, as well as deciding whether Burmese troops can move around in areas under its control.
Major Sai Min, a spokesperson for the SSA’s political wing, the Shan State Restoration Council, said that the group will assume responsibility for appointing administrative workers in SSA territory, although the extent of autonomy it will enjoy remains unclear.

Federalism is misunderstood and misrepresented
(Commentary) – Life is full of contrasts, contradictions and surprises, and nowhere is that more true than in Burma today. In the past fortnight, I travelled to meet internally displaced people in Kachin State along the China-Burma border, where I heard some of the worst stories of human rights violations that I have ever heard in almost 15 years of involvement in Burma.
The following week, I travelled to Rangoon, where I found an atmosphere of hope that I have never seen before, and an openness that was extraordinary.
It is 10 months since I was deported from the country, and yet I was able to return, on a valid visa, with no one even batting an eyelid at the airport and not a hint of anyone watching me during the week. I was able to meet people who for years have been out of reach, in prison or house arrest, or who, even during the times they were free, were just so sensitive that a meeting would be bound to attract the authorities’ attention. Yet I walked in and out of the offices of the National League for Democracy (NLD) and 88 Generation Student leaders’ homes without anyone appearing to notice.
It would be too simplistic to say that the fortnight was like a journey from darkness to light, because the crisis in Kachin State is not without hope and the political changes in Burma are just the beginning, with a very long way to go and many challenges ahead. But the contrasts illustrate the situation in Burma today, a country possibly on the brink of unexpected change but with many serious questions still to answer.
In his memoir Hitch 22, Christopher Hitchens quotes John Maynard Keynes’ famous words: “When the facts change, then my opinion changes: and you sir?” I am no Keynesian, and I do not believe Burma has yet changed enough to merit a total 360 degree shift in policy, but I left Burma with more hope than I have ever had for the country. The facts have not yet changed, but they are changing – and as a result, so is my analysis. The phrase on most lips is “cautious optimism,” and that sums up my views perfectly, with equal emphasis on both words. There is good reason to be optimistic now – but there are also plenty of reasons still to be cautious.
Why be optimistic? The change is largely atmospheric, but changing the atmosphere is an important first step. Allowing a foreigner who was deported less than a year before, and other foreigners who have been blacklisted for years, and exiled Burmese journalists with decades of opposition to the regime, to visit the country may be clever public relations, but it is nonetheless different from the past. In shops and street-stalls, T-shirts, calendars, posters, booklets and DVDs with pictures of Aung San Suu Kyi are on sale, and at the traffic lights young men tout copies of the movie, “The Lady.” A year ago such activities would have landed a person in jail.
From the atmospheric to the substantial, there are also significant reasons for hope. The process began last July, and within just six months Aung San Suu Kyi had met President Thein Sein, re-registered the NLD, and agreed to contest parliamentary by-elections in April. It is highly likely that two months from now, she and other NLD candidates will be elected members of Parliament. The international community has repeatedly told Thein Sein that for sanctions to be lifted, he needs to release all political prisoners, ensure the by-elections are free and fair, stop attacks on ethnic civilians, announce a nationwide cease-fire, and develop a dialogue process with Aung San Suu Kyi, the democracy movement and the ethnic nationalities. To his credit, he has undertaken a good number, though not yet all, of these steps. The release of large numbers of political prisoners, including prominent political activists such as Min Ko Naing, Ko Ko Gyi and other leaders of the 88 Generation Students, Khun Htun Oo, Zarganar and Su Su Nway, is significant and must be welcomed. A dialogue with Suu Kyi is underway, and the regime knows it is in its interests to ensure the by-elections will be fair. Even on the issue of a cease-fire with ethnic armed groups, significant progress has been made, although serious human rights violations continue and the conflict in Kachin State remains unresolved. It must be acknowledged, though, that even on the ethnic question, so crucial to the country’s future, there is some movement.

Invitation for Emergency Karen Worldwide Conference
Dear Karen nationals at home and abroad,
We would like to invite you to attend Karen Worldwide Conference which will be held from 27th February- 1st March 2012 in our motherland of Kawthoolei.
This conference will be held six weeks after the initial ceasefire agreement between the Karen National Union and Thein Sein Government, to analyse the current situation of the Karen people, to come together as a nation in support of the KNU for further talks towards a genuine political solution for the Karen people and Burma .
Given the fact that there have been some developments inside Burma , this is such a crucial time for our nation. Therefore, it is extremely important that the voices from different Karen communities and backgrounds around the world are included in any further political negotiations.
We appreciate this is a short notice, but we really hope that you can participate with us at this crucial time. Your opinions and contributions are very important to us. However, if you can not make it in person, please feel free to send your opinions to karen_unity@yahoo.com by Wednesday 23rd February 2012.
Please see the attached documents for more logistic information for the conference and contact Naw Hsa Moo at 081-7408119
We look forward to seeing you all.
Best wishes,
Karen Unity Seminar Committee

ကၽြန္ေတာ္ၾကည့္ရင္း စိတ္အေတာ္ေၿခာက္ၿခားသြားသည္။ စိတ္မေကာင္းလည္းၿဖစ္မိသည္ ။ ထိုစဥ္မွာပင္ သူကရုတ္တရက္ထရပ္၍… ေလွခါးသုံး ေလး ထစ္ကို ေက်ာ္ၿပီး ခုန္ဆင္းသြားသည္။ အၿပင္တြင္ မိုးေတြ သဲသဲမဲမဲရြာေနသည္ ။ကၽြန္ေတာ္ စိုးရိမ္တၾကီး ေနာက္မွ ေၿပးလိုက္သြားၿပီး...... “ တစ္ေယာက္ထဲမသြားနဲ႔ေလ….ရဲေဘာ္ေတြေကာ……” ဗိုလ္ခ်ဳပ္ၾကီးၿမ ဘယ္သြားသြား….သူ႔ေဘးတြင္ အနည္းဆုံး ရဲေဘာ္ေလး…ငါး…ေယာက္..ပါေနက်ၿဖစ္သည္။ “ သူတို႔က ….၅ တန္းေက်ာင္းသားေတြဘဲ……ငါ့ဆီမွာ ……မေပ်ာ္ေတာ့ဘူး…….ထြက္သြားၾကၿပီ…..”
အဆက္အစပ္ မတည့္ေသာစကားကိုေၿပာယင္း မိုးေရထဲ ဆက္သြားေနသည္။
ကၽြန္ေတာ္ဘာလုပ္ရမွန္းမသိၿဖစ္ ေနသည္။
“ ဗိုလ္ခ်ဳပ္ေၿခေထာက္ေတြက လမ္းေလွ်ာက္လို႔မရဘူးေလ”
မိုးသဲသဲထဲတြင္ ဆိုက္ကားတစ္စီးေတြ႔၍ ကၽြန္ေတာ္ကလွမ္းေခၚလိုက္ၿပီး သူ႔ကိုတက္ခိုင္းလိုက္သည္ ။
“ ေအး…….မင္းေရွ႔ကတက္…..ငါေနာက္မွာဘဲထိုင္မယ္…….ေရွ႔ကၿမင့္တယ္…..မတက္နိုင္ဘူး……”
ထိုစဥ္ ေရွ႔တည့္တည့္မွ ႏြားလွည္းတစ္စီး အၿပင္းေမာင္းႏွင္လာသည္။ လွည္းတံပိုး မ်ားက သာမာန္ထက္ ေဘး သို႔ နွစ္ေတာင္ခန္႔ရွည္ထြက္ေနသည္။
ေရွာင္၍ မည္သို႔မွ် မလြတ္နိုင္။ထိုလွည္းတံပိုး မ်ားက ဆိုက္ကားကို အရွိန္ ၿဖင့္ တိုက္ခ်သြားသည္။
မိမိတို႔မည္သို႔မွ်မၿဖစ္ လွည္းတံပိုး ၾကီးသာ သစ္ေဆြးတုံးၾကီးတစ္တုံးလို က်ဳိးထြက ္လြင့္ ေၾကြသြားသည္။
သိုု႔ေသာ္ ကၽြန္ေတာ္ စိုးရိမ္စိတ္ၿဖင့္ ဆိုက္ကားေနာက္သို႔လွည့္ၾကည့္လိုုက္သည္ ။ အားလုံးေမွာင္ မဲေနသည္။
မိုးသံမ်ားကေတာ့ တစ္ေ၀ါေ၀ါ ၾကားေနရဆဲ။ သို႔ေသာ္ ကၽြန္ေတာ့္ကိုယ္တြင္ လုံး၀စိုမေန ။
တစ္ကယ္ေတာ့ အားလုံးလြဲေနေၾကာင္း သတိၿပန္၀င္လာသည္။
တစ္ေ၀ါေ၀ါ ၾကားေနရဆဲၿဖစ္ေသာ အသ ံမ်ားသည္ ။
မိုးသံမဟုတ္၊ ပင္လယ္လိႈင္းသံမ်ားသာၿဖစ္သည္။
။မိမိမွာလည္း အိပ္ယာထဲတြင္ ေႏြးေထြးသက္သာစြာ ရိွ ေနသည္ ။
ဗိုလ္ခ်ဳပ္ၾကီးၿမ ကြယ္လြန္ခဲ့သည္မွာလည္း ၅ နွစ္ခန္႔ရိွၿပီ။
..ဆိုက္ကားတို႔ လွည္းတို႔ရိွေသာ ၿမန္မာၿပည္ လည္းမဟုတ္။
အီတလီ နိုင္ငံ၏ေတာင္ဘက္အစြန္ဆုံး ပင္လယ္ ကမ္းေၿခတစ္ေနရာတြင္ၿဖစ္သည္။
မည္သို႔မွ်မမွတ္ထင္ထားေသာ အိမ္မက္တစ္ခုမက္ခဲ့ၿခင္းသာၿဖစ္သည္။ ဒါလည္း လဲြေနေသးသည္ ။
အိမ္မက္ထဲမွ ပုဂိၢဳလ္က ကရင့္ေခါင္းေဆာင္ဗိုလ္ခ်ဳပ္ၾကီးေစာဗိုလ္ၿမ…. စဲြစဲြလန္းလန္းမက္သူ က….ကၽြန္ေတာ္ ဗမာေမာင္ေက်ာ္။ တစ္ကဲ့ကို အားလုံးလဲြေနသည္ ။ မနက္ ၄ နာရီခန္႔ၿဖစ္ေနသည္။ ၿပန္အိပ္၍မရေတာ။့
တကယ္ေတာ့ မိမိသည္ ဗိုလ္ခ်ဳပ္ၾကီးၿမႏွင့္ လက္ပြန္း တတီး ၾကာရွည္စြာမေနဖူးခဲ့။
သို႔ေသာ္ တာ၀န္ၿဖင့္အေၾကာင္းဆုံ၍ေတြ႔တိုင္း ထူးၿခားေသာ၊ရိုးသားေလးစားဖြယ ္ေကာင္း ေသာ သူ႔ဓေလ့စရိုက္မ်ားကို ေတြ႔ၾကံဳရသည္။
ဗိုလ္ခ်ဳပ္ၿမရိုးသားသည္၊ သို႔ေသာ္ မအ ပါ ။
ခိုင္မာသည္...သို႔ေသာ္ ေၿပာင္းရဲ... ၿပင္ရဲသည္။ တက္ရဲ...ဆုတ္ရဲသည္။
ဆုတ္ကိုင္ရဲ…လက္လႊတ္ရဲသည္။
သူႏွင့္ဆုံခဲ့သည့္ အေၾကာင္းအရာ မ်ားကို ေထြရာေလးပါးစဥ္းစားရင္း ၿပန္အိပ္မရေတာ့ ။
အိပ္ယာမွထ၍ ေရေႏြးတည္ၿပီး ေရေႏြးတစ္ခြက္ကိုင္ရင္း တံခါးဖြင့္လိုက္ေတာ့ အလင္းေရာင္လာေနၿပီ။
၇ နာရီ ထိုးေတာ့မည္။
ၿပာလဲ့ေသာပင္လယ္ၿပင္၏ တစ္ဖက္နားတြင္ မီးခိုးမ်ားထြက္ေနေသာ မီးေတာင္တစ္ခု နွင့္ကၽြန္း ဆြယ္တန္းကို ခပ္မႈန္မႈန္ လွမ္းၿမင္ေနရ သည္။
ထင္ရွားေသာပုဂိၢဳလ္ၾကီး နွစ္ဦး၏ ဇာတိေၿမ စစ္စလီကၽြန္း ၿဖစ္ သည္။
တစ္ဦးမွာပညာရွိ “ အာခိမိဒိ” ၿဖစ္သည္ ။ အၿခားတစ္ဦးမွာ..မာဖီးယား၏ဖခင္ “ ခ်ာလီလပ္ကီးလူစီယာနို ” ၿဖစ္သည္။
ထိုေခတ္ထိုအခါက ထိုေဒသတြင္ လူမိုက္သူခိုး ဓါးၿပမ်ား ေပါမ်ားၿပီး မင္းမဲ့စရိုက္ထြန္းကားသည္ ။
လာဘ္စား အက်င့္ပ်က္ပုဂိၢဳလ္အမ်ားစုပါေသာ နိုင္ငံ အစိုးရ ကလည္း ရိုးသားေသာ လူတန္းစားကို အကာအကြယ္မေပးနိုင္။
အက်င့္ပ်က္မ်ားကသာ ဥပေဒကိုလိုသလို ကိုယ္ကိ်ုဳးအသုံးၿပဳေနၾကသည္။
ထိုစဥ္က မဟုတ္မခံ ထက္ၿမက္ေသာလူငယ္တစ္ဦးသည္ မတရားခံရသူမ်ား ဖက္မွ “ ၿဖစ္သည့္နည္းၿဖင့္ ” လက္စားေၿခ အကာအကြယ္ ေပးရင္း အင္အားၾကီးမားလာခဲ့သည္။
ထိုလူငယ္မွာ “ ခ်ာလီလပ္ကီးလူစီယာႏို (အီတလီ အေခၚ ..လူခ်ားႏို)” ဆိုသူ စစ္စလီကၽြန္းသားလူငယ္တစ္ဦးၿဖစ္ၿပီး ထိုအုပ္စုမွ အရိွမ္ အ၀ါ ၾကီးမားေသာ မာဖီးယား ၿဖစ္လာခဲ့သည္။
ေနာက္ပိိုင္းတြင္အဖဲြ႔ခဲြမ်ားေပၚေပါက္၊ေနရာလု၊အခ်င္းခ်င္းသတ္ၾကၿဖင့္ ယခုအခါ မာဖီးယား ဆိုသည္မွာ...
ဤေဒသ တြင္ ရိုးသားစြာလုပ္ကိုင ္ စားသူ မ်ားအေပၚ ၿခိမ္းေၿခာက္ေငြညွစ္ စားေသာအဆင့္သာရိွေတာ့သည္။
အရိွန္အ၀ါၾကီး မားထက္ၿမက္ေသာ ပုဂိၢဳလ္ေခါင္းေဆာင္မ်ား ရိွပုံမရေတာ့။
“ကရင့္ေတာ္လွန္ေရး” ကေကာဘယ္လိုပါလိမ္႔၊ မဆီမဆိုင္ ဆက္စပ္ေတြးမိရာမွ ဗိုလ္ခ်ဳပ္ၾကီးၿမႏွင့္ ေနာက္ဆုံးေတြ႔ခဲ့သည့္ အၿဖစ္အပ်က္ကို သတိယလာမိသည္။
