from the subcontinent because we see. in the past those around him are by the way in small numbers but under colonialism the british empire became too burma in large numbers of course that created problems. one of the remarkable things about the want to be read it was that. the control by the authorities was very strict and very strong. so we had very little religious disturbances of course it was sort of pushed underground. but with the return of democracy and. a greater openness and of course at the same time manipulation it came out reemerge on

a much bigger scale. in politics there are two emotions which are very strong one is greed and the others fear. because we are under the military dictatorship fifty one years. and then we have a civil war that's been raging between the central military and the ethnic on organizations. saw it's like. an ending. continuous fear. even educated people in your ma say that all you see the images they breed like cockroaches or insects and very soon you're hung stage will be full of was going religious and it was a buddhist will be swallowed so it's like we are defending our country our society and our religion so it's very important it's

a very strong message but only wrong and it's quite frightening. and that is the real danger of these extremist monks. mobility. if you like you may. have an area here my film there. a young. mother that is the first organization to inform on. how to protest our country our is. going to treat our ease.
