Let me ask you.
Perhaps, you may...Ok, Dr. Leider,<br /><br />Let me ask you.<br /><br />Perhaps, you may visit Bangladesh sometime and just you set up your mind to pick up your " own concept" through merely an interview with someone or a group of refugee in Bangladesh? Does your client represent the whole Rohingya community ? How can you justify your " personal concept" ignoring the academic finding, concepts and historical records by many historians at home and abroad alike ? You should explore all those things as a whole in order to invent a new concept rather than hurried to a bold and irrelevant final decision that you've just made.<br />Hla Aung<br />Paris Hla Aunghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08600380224549792115noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8066567179565022459.post-75102221288846511832012-06-17T12:49:10.579+09:002012-06-17T12:49:10.579+09:00Congratulation to her!

He told foreign journalists in Washington that the lifting of sanctions against the Burmese military junta—as demanded by ASEAN—is premature.<br /><br />Sanctions on Burma (A review by the National League for Democracy is announced on 8th February 2011).<br /><br />The U.S. policy of imposing unilateral trade and investment sanctions against Myanmar has proven to be a failure on all fronts in the past. By forcing U.S. firms to disengage from Myanmar, that policy has harmed American economic interests and done nothing to improve the living conditions or human rights of the people of Myanmar.<br /><br />Sanctions have denied Myanmar citizens the benefits of increased investment by American multinational companies--investment that brings technology, better working conditions, and Western ideas.<br /><br />Unilateral sanctions have alienated our allies in the region and strengthened the hand of China but achieved none of the stated foreign policy aims. If Washington had allowed the ASEAN Nations to take the lead in setting policy toward Myanmar, the United States could have enjoyed a "win-win" situation--better relations with U.S. allies and more influence over the Myanmar.<br /><br />As an alternative to the failed policy of sanctions, the United States should allow U.S. companies to freely trade with and investment in Myanmar. A pro-business approach to engagement would more effectively promote political, civil, and economic freedom around the world. Congress should enact legislation requiring a full accounting of the cost of sanctions and explicit justification on national security grounds before they can be imposed.<br /><br />U.S. policy toward Myanmar is an irresponsible moral posturing. Supporters of sanctions want to feel good that they are doing something to improve political and economic conditions in Myanmar by forcing someone else--American businesses, the ASEAN nations, and the Myanmar people to bear the costs. The result will be reduced access of the Myanmar people to American products, people, and ideas; worsening economic conditions; and potential political and regional instability. It is indeed ironic that some members of America's cosmopolitan knowledge class, who are the main beneficiaries of the process of economic globalization, are supporting policies that run contrary to free trade and open markets and deny the Myanmar people the ability to enjoy the fruits of the global economy.<br /><br />February 10, 2011 10:44 PMAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
