4:12 am
to export their orange. you gumby it up openly oppose this movement it's still determined that democracy was the only way forward for me and mark. repeatedly imprisoned and ostracized for his views he finally fled to thailand in 2060. many in the myanmar believe the military still an important part of the governing structure intentionally fuel divisions amongst buddhist groups they quickly aligned with the most nationalistic buddhist leaders in hans in the army's popularity and influence. you know if you own. one them all found them not able in gunning were told on a whole don't you think you are you know on the whole that got a. lot of the gun on the little fire in the hollow.

4:16 am
the warrior. truth of his extremism. especially the anti muslim i think it has a very long roots. muslims have been in a mall for centuries. things became more problematic with large scale immigration from the subcontinent because we see. in the past was there was growing in your mob but they were 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 it was that the control by the
4:17 am
authorities was very strict and very strong. so we had very little religious disturbances of course it was 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 2 emotions which are very strong one is greed and the others fear. because we're under the military dictatorship 51 years and. then we have a civil war that's been raging between the central military and the ethnic on the organizations. so it's like.
4:18 am
an ending. continuous fear even educated people in your mass either or you see the inches they breed like cockroaches or insects and very soon the high state will be full of was going religious and that was the 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 totally wrong and it's quite frightening and that is the real danger of these extremist monks.
4:19 am
mobility. if you like to a man. yeah do their finale here my film there. are a lot of our there. is the 1st organization to inform how to protest our country our riis. country hours. but isn't is. peacemaker. we are where come in every one to our nation our country. ok. we doe as staff illegally migrant.

4:21 am
a prank this is a fake fake. this is a fake. how did it everybody says our humor rises humor right where is a human jew deep where is citizen judy. i want to ask them where is what is human judy. then there was then they never tell about them. they all will out the all out you mariah human right no human right is not that fast we have to understand human judy and citizen to d.
4:22 am
. if you are human being. we are not animal. all of this. can be brought on free and. he got us all really bad we can all have that. the mayor hang him the ceiling before us and we believe in islam are discriminated and treated like animals by the. state was home to over a 1000000 rohingya muslims and over 2000000 buddhists before the conflict started in 2012. since then being mars government has banned all media and
4:23 am
n.g.o.s from accessing the conflict area. where most ranger muslims now live in internally displaced camps. desperate and afraid. i want to hide my face and my identity because the government. to me to speak out. when you are bad they come and. and the prosecutor. suddenly there was a month dead several muslim football and we are rabbi time and grog in tell me no. all the time a state. after several days there are people in mosques and the police come in said the hollis on fire in on me. i was in my house
4:24 am
hiding i decided myself i have think that because my belly was wrong. there are insists that their community had nothing to do with this attack. many of me in mars activists and journalists believe that the rape and murder of the buddhist woman never happened. that it was a story made up to start the conflict and. hundreds of thousands were forced into i.d.p. camps or to flee the country most of them to refugee camps in neighboring bangladesh. in their own lives some of them going to the police all sportswear by their listening. at the time we are. at the link. to the muslim people honduras south thousands of. people.
4:25 am
following the attacks me and mas armed forces led so-called clearance operations in iraq and states. by 2018 thousands of ranger muslims were killed and more than 700000 had fled to bangladesh. the situation for survivors is desperate. now i am 22 years from my feet to the current. horrible if i want to. stay but i can't. because i don't have i don't think that. i want to see. peace having equal right in the country i want to see this is slightly.
4:26 am
what has happened in iraq hein what has happened to the ranger has been. really kind of an abysmal drop. the weight of a government and the military and the security forces handle things only made things worse. so that's one of the the biggest stains upon the new government and on the country as a whole and i really believe that things where either handled very badly all there are some i think. unscrupulous you know elements in it relating the situation from behind. countries who are transiting you know from an authoritarian system or doable open democratic system face
4:27 am
a lot of problems the politicians have to be prepared for that but you know i was not. and mob politics is dominated by just 2 parties one is the military spotty the us d.p. and one is the national league for democracy. we thought that things would change just by having a democratic government you know and. the party of austin city coming to power so again you are also disappointed in that regard. during her decades of struggle to house arrest that she was a nationally known democracy icon a harrowing recipient of it rises she was repeating the monks rob human rights with every breath almost no democracy human rights no rule of law not she says she doesn't even mention human rights anymore.
4:28 am
in the years following the suffering revolution myanmar celebrated its 1st democratic government. but with the military still in power many of the dreams to have true democracy evaporate. and me and mars leaders stand accused of genocide. i care about how the u.s. engages with the rest of the world i cover foreign policy national security this is very much a political impounds here's the pomp like how do we illustrate it are we telling a good story will people get what we're trying to think here they're living outside in makeshift tents this is not the way any family wants to raise their children we're willing to get in take new into a place that you might not visit otherwise and to absolutely feel as if you were
4:29 am
there. when often. raised in a chinese buddhist all phonies. faces a momentous life decision. a personal story of competing identities. the chad light on a growing cultural ties. in africa a witness documentary on al-jazeera. al-jazeera wild meats for remarkable both mean women survived this after those closest to them were taken away never to return. some of the 8000 muslim men and boys killed in the strep anita massacre 25 years ago heartfelt accounts from those left behind trying to move on from the pain of the past women who refused to die on al-jazeera
4:30 am

4:32 am
a new high speed mobile network the u.k. government says it can't ensure the security of our way equipment 11 soldiers from us about john and 2 from armenia have been killed as fighting escalates on the border the 2 former soviet republics have been in cold for over an enclave inside as a bunch of controlled by ethnic armenians and thousands of israelis have rallied outside the prime minister's residence calling for him to step down but even with new york who is facing a corruption trial and growing discontent over his handling of the corona virus pandemic critics say he reopened the economy too soon causing a sharp rise in infections which has prompted a 2nd lockdown those were the headlines and back with more news in half an hour we continue with me and an unholy alliance to stay with us here on our show sarah. just. no no no no come on. now you know when.
4:33 am
to go up. even with a would be able. to move. and i told me that. it's. good to move we see well you know we see you do so unless you know why you will be thinking. through all the mojo now dude you are not just you and i didn't know how to do just i don't know what i've been told to be about my get it. and then the body to somebody. why do you feel for these going. on in it. and don't worry about it. now obama will probably get them out of town or hurt you or. there will be a few woman all alone let alone the us the images and it will be i was just with
4:34 am
them i just need. to bore you but when. you look at it. in the broader picture it's like like you know separate division amongst can stitch massive protests and bring the population onto this site which the. really fear and division governor. really clamp down on it so if them were treated. very suitable. you can also use mongst for your own purpose you know for very negative and set objectives back to democracy the monks are a force that can be used. the n.l.e. government doesn't view of the very favorably you have to protect that so the monks
4:35 am
and the military be entered into this kind of unholy alliance. claims. there is no denying the reverence for them about our leader during his visit to current state. his devoted followers worship the ultranationalist monks along the way. place a crowd of fervent followers is also waiting to receive his speak. for her. class.
4:38 am
got. friends and. i was born and maturity but i think it's. because as a majority community. or to something i grew up in you know. i need to admit that i was privilege being a military daughter i'm powerful even mindset is powerful whatever i go out i got favor i can do whatever i want if i want to use in my father's power.
4:39 am
so everything is privilege and everything is just a fine you dissolve this privilege because you are british just because you do something good in your purse life. of course we have questions even inside the family they don't agree they asked me to stop saying that words against the military because they are that all people if i caused or if i'm playing to the old people i would be in hell in the future. so when i exposed to the different wars when i exported different stories so they gave me a new insights that i need to really stand on using my model as the majority ethnicity a majority religions to define and those were all press. so we got in the range of prices and i feel a huge. burden because that's not just there and rakhine
4:40 am
crisis is that nation of crisis it's not just a nation a crisis a global crisis right now. but why that to have the need because the fear. that politicians know that if you make people fear for something like the a religion has become sensitive it again easier to create a conflict so it's become like us and politic or we are playing games using that religion and nationality and i didn't cut. the minister of religion he was actually from military. that means he's got to have some kind of some a lot ideologue to dislike mob outta that recruit that by and l.t. you get but it is so his it makes the structure that he is walking and as a ministry all religion only for boredom.
4:41 am
this town and current state in the south east of me and more is restricted to foreigners and muslims forbidden. the normal immunity he gave. so much to achieve and we go. to lie that some of. the not going on here. he. taught he had to go he said. i'll be out by the. drum or not it's a mile. deep down in him as in the name dan you're the one now done our job one made it. plain that i don't believe in your. life. and there in that was all the law that was out to kill out of no good.
4:42 am
only and then we had a name that would design muscle did it but it don't i do you know i doubt it will. settle i do because only with it. you know the idea and then that this us on the this that when you're dead they're. dead beat up. today monks from across the country along with thousands of devoted these have come to pay their last respects at the funeral of $1.00 of the region's most influential religious leaders political figures and other public personalities attend the event . and twere them about cars leader is given a position of prestige in all foreign to you. on this trip scores of heavily armed soldiers accompany him. deep down in him as a new one and. one name is
4:43 am
a. stable 1. 1000000 a. teenager . all those say d.n.a. . the tinning. and of obsidian. the myanmar minister of religion is at great pains to justify his government's policies regarding the range of prices to them. explaining that any concessions were enacted reluctantly. got. off by me. and my. 5. by.
4:44 am
4:45 am
laws and they call them support. huge never and i think this was a way of trying to test the waters. this happens in democracies now. so in the past it was the power of the gun and now it is the power of the vote and the legislature is really dominated by the u.s. to be party a. bus those walls. and so one of our crew in st. louis missouri 15 elections. really tried to play a political role. and to explain that we are to he has visited sri lanka many times and i think is aim and his role model of the monks and nuns at the park that kind of.
4:46 am
and according to the new 3 like an institution. there's a party composed of what is monks is committed and then they also entered the election and got elected. most in 3 long because of the general emergency. the buddhist monks. became very active in politics the same thing is repeated in your mind the political role the nationalist role and the colonial role you know. but i would say sri lanka was peds in politics so militant monsters excuse monks in yemen now look at sri lanka as a kind of a role model. so that the new power doesn't exist anymore you know the fish are gone so they have to find something. and. they say that the same thing
4:47 am
for the military they need evidence to justify their big budgets and their existence. is the law of evidence that made public that the military was supporting them about the law and the law is flush with cash but lots of money. we're doing is also because adding funds for the budgets they say that you have to prepare yourself for the next elections. so introduce your team they were actually backing this certain candidates for election i think they will do the same thing in 2020 but on the biggest cayle. that any. not only do the next.
4:49 am
we fall river right on the field on the 7th because all it's awful revolution against a military system everybody won the freedom everybody round in my right everybody want democracy. one day the military army come and shoot a lot of people on the street i visit scary we go i never saw we kill each other from me. i ve so sad and i ve so angry in same time. after that what can we do we have no power here nor up on are about the news that uses can speak out to use power to fight back we can screaming. for the human right. person is why one should do among job. losses. mostly who hate islam be better is there. no other
4:50 am
for me the fuss is. this is not religion this is a politics. religion. i don't understand the policy. i only understand about humanity i cannot change the war i cannot change even my country i get change to think my stuff around me as this. revolution cannot exist without a left allusion with the lead this minute violent with us all are over losing you cannot see changing because of or reason is the change the must work you invest time. out of it a little bit of the money why don't they just you know to. be idealists you know.
4:51 am
whom no buying 1000000 new job and now you know you're going to. hit the. sand out of anonymity double. the money and i. doubt anyone would you like. the protection of buddhism and the current government inspired devotion among many of me and most people. but there are voices challenging the status quo there is an emerging dissenting youth movement calling for another revolution. for authorities it presents a new challenge. for others who say they want to preserve myanmar's fledgling democracy it off. as a voice of. me.
4:52 am
dad was always feared the youths in the hope brought new ideas and new concepts and who called friends with conservative people all these. 20 of us in their minds to where in the projects like the voice opinions. we bring people together from different communities different religious backgrounds from music. so you know it is clearly that. they don't know want to see any more conflicts they want to be together they want to be peaceful they want to be developed you know they want to touch up with the war and they want to do you know they want to celebrate this freedom. and so our job is to you know let them be aware of how they can
4:53 am
4:55 am
