If you're feeling helpless, help someone.

I learned to work on a computer years before I was placed under house arrest. Fortunately I had two laptops when I was under house arrest - one an Apple and one a different operating system. I was very proud of that because I know how to use both systems.

My attitude is, do as much as I can while I'm free. And if I'm arrested I'll still do as much as I can.

Calamities that are not the result of purely natural phenomena usually have their origins, distant and obscure though they may be, in common human failings.

All military regimes use security as the reason why they should remain in power. It's nothing original.

Because of rampant inflation, living standards have been dropping for the great majority of the population. The people are poorer because standards of health and education have fallen. And conditions in the rural areas are worse off than they have ever been. So, you cannot equate the so-called open-market economy adopted by the SLORC with any real development that benefits people.

We must all work together if we are all to live together in unity and harmony.
