Comment to present Karen leaders and encouragement to youths
Leaders don't have well relationship to each other so they even need to try to deal with young Karen people to enable youths to take responsibility in the future.

"We are waiting for your coming back "
Karen civilians
today already getting tire of civil war but they don't give up in supporting
our revolution.But instead of waiting for the result of the revolution now
they try to find their own liberation.I heard many of them talking me about
their feeling to our revolution.They mostly feel like sheep without
shepherd.
As on these present days there are many Karen youths who are
educated both inside and outside of Burma,I believe that all these
educated people will fulfill their national responsibility both in
individual and organizational level.
If our civilians don't see any of our contribution for
them,they can not recognize us their leaders any more.Mostly our
people have much hope from those are going abroad but up to this day
we don't see any of their coming back and doing special contribution
that will give hope to our civilians.
The situation still urging our people to leave to third
country. If the situation continues like now,we all can can imagine
how our future will be.
I am not dare to conclude my writing with any of my comment
because I don't want those read my writing will feel like I complain
to any body.
I hope you will read my writing in positive sense as I am
writing it in positive sense.To my honest I would like to know that I
welcome both of your negative and positive response to me.
With much hope to you all in Kawthoolei

The Role of Non-Burman in building Union of Burma to be a democratic country
We all need to know Burma is a union country and could not pocess by Burman alone.The Burman people try to influence and process this country as their own from the time after colonization of British.On the money of Burman Kyat the don't write down the word union.Most of the Burman nationalist deny their self to be included in the word of "ETHNIC".They recognize their selves as the owner of this union.
On this 60th anniversary of independence day of our union from British,we would urge all Burmen both from the sides of opposition and SPDC will accept the really meaning of building our union.
When I check out the Burmese history they can not point out definitely resources that are the primitive resources of Burman.They try to avoid to mention other ethnics' names.The Burman historians try to make Burman stronger and influence to other ethnics even in writing their history.
The independence of Burma is not to combine or mix up other ethnics with Burman people or to make ethnics' land to be the procession of Burman people is all the Burman need to keep in their mind.
Now on this day all the ethnics coming the reality hearted of Burma and try would try until they gain their national rights of Freedom,Equality and self -determination.
To make Burma to be a real democratic country no ethnic could not be subordinated be Burman or other ethnics.The Burman historian never mention Karens' names in Burma history and ignore the demanded of Karen and instead of to recognize the Burman people response Karens' with violence,atrocities and try to assimilate Karen in Burma are the sources that make Karen to protect their selves with arms struggle.
Up to this day the Karen never give up to regain their national and political rights in the union of Buirma.We all Karen youths need to equip our selves with ability and knowledge to be able to show our reality which Burman people try to hide.
Unless we could build up Burma to be a real democratic country with include with "Freedom,Justice and self-determination",our union could never gain real democracy,like the 60th independence day could be for Burman people but not for other Ethnics.It is the source that make all ethnics in union of Burma to begin their arms' struggle.
We ethnics believe in Aung San Suu Kyi that she has much concern to us by seeing her wearing Karen skirt.We support and recognize her as leader who know the above issue that I mention above.Please see the attachment.
Note--
"If we don't love our people,who will love us?Loving our people does not mean that we hate Burman people."

Happy Karen New Year to you all!
I am wishing all of you to get ready for our Karen day in Myanmar . Nowadays
we cannot celebrate our new in Burma independently, because we have no
freedom for our rights. Being a Burmese citizen we have to struggle for our
living, on the other hand, we are suffering the international impact that
tried to cause the junta from every side. Recently, one of the issues that
hit the heart of Burmese is that our Burma got the prize of record breaking
in Germany. This prize is going to forward to our Burmese citizen sooner or
later. Myanmar is one of the worst countries in *corruption* problem. Due to
this account we all Burmese citizen have no face in international
communication.
As we know that whenever we go to abroad, we people are feeling isolation in
communication. Even our neighbors are not giving us warmly welcome
when we enter their country. What a shame for our people! If we
think about the root-cause of this problem, our brutal junta is the
root-cause of this problem. They are breaking the international rule.
Everything that they are doing now is for keeping their place in political
power in our country.They cannot control the economic crisis, on the other
hand they are trying to make the stability in economic affairs. So far
they pretend to keep running all the business that supporting our country.
Actually, it cannot save the problem of our economic crisis that we are
facing now.
Our people, Karen, from Myanmar are also facing these problems in various
place. As far as i know, the dictator is giving a chance to make money
through bribery. You can get everything through under table. In this
situation we need to recheck our moral standard with other countries,
because we need to find out: Why are we committing the disgusting
corruption in our country? The answer will be that without using
the chance to do all the disgusting thing that we can, life in Myanmar is
not conveniences for our people. We have to make a chance to get
bribery, we have to create something impatient and difficulties to those who
we are dealing so that they will give the money to get things done quickly
for them. Another one is that the people from Myanmar have to
struggle for their living through making black money in their work.
If we are looking the future of Myanmar, this country is in the danger zone.
Among us some people are looking forward to getting solution from
international communities, but everything is in vain. The movement of
international organization is going slowly to change the Myanmar through
international law. As we know that the junta is getting safe-side from the
powerful countries- China, Russia, India and all the countries that standing
for them.
Finally i would like to conclude is that all the suffering that we are
facing now is creating by the junta. We are monopolized, oppressed,
tortured, bullied, exploited, ruined ,and they will do everything that
support to keep their power in Myanmar. As we know that we are the
victim of the system. The final solution for us is to fight for our
freedom and to oppose everything that they are doing in Myanmar, because
they are doing for their power. There are two option to choose- To
surrender or to fight.
Stand for justice, fight for our freedom, create a new country for our
generation

Don't depend...... try by youself
community,mostly we have to afraid of social punishments which come
from religions,tradition and culture.
In living of our daily lives we
use to live dependent lives on our parents,leaders,relatives and
community.We have to afraid of social punishments which come out from
our traditions,religions,culture etc...
To be able to go through all these social bondage we independences
life and to be able to live individual life. we need to equip our
selves with wide knowledge,open minded and mutual respect to all
people.If we are not perfect with these quality we could never have
independence lives.
The reason that make me to write this article is come from my
experience of trying to get hope from those belong to me like my
parents,relatives and leaders those belong to me,but later I come to
see that I have to work out by myself for what I hope is the most
suitable way for me.
Depeding on others and getting things by the opportunity that some one
give me is not suitable on this days and it can be dangers for myself
and work that I have to do.
Many Karen youths of today don't know what and how ro work for our
people.They even waiting for our national organization will prepare
thing for their future.They use to blame others becouse of
difficuolities that they have in their lives.
Our national organization need our individual commitment,which will
support our community needs,if we can fulfill our community needs,it
will surely will lead us to fulfill our national needs.
If we can go through all these bondage and could complete our
individual responsibility we will gain hope for our future life and
our community and organization will become mature organization.
Note-
Instead of asking what other would do for you,try to do what you can
do by yourself for other.Don't be confused of yourself for the
complicated thing that happens in your community today.Try to be the
right person in the right place and at the time you can be today.
Bless

New Year of 2008 and Burma
Oh these new year occasion there is a big threat for the people of Burma because of the rumors like the division's minister and mayor of Yangon fought at Hlaing Dan cross road and the vehicles will get only one gallon for per day and there will be 10000000 ks for settled TV tax.
On the Karen area like Taung Oo and Ler Doh aren there are a big military operations and many local people are asked to give paddy to authority to get permission for reaping the crops.
Many young people inside the country trying to demos rate in their own way especially at the eve night of New Year even there were strictly security in every where of Rangoon.
We all believe that it is the sign of the next up rising on 2008 for the changing of Burma.One thing the regime need to know is the civilians would never let them to continue their ruling in the future.
So we all need to take our responsibility in our desperate d places.
Note-
If we keep quet on this day,it is the same to that we are standing in the side of the regime.
