Elongated Thoughts (7)

The advertisements of the " Free Funeral Services " Society had been banned printing in the local media in Burma .

That volunteer service, standing on public donations, is running with admirable successes quite a long time. Not only helping the poor and the needy but also for all strata of life, the reputation of that society becomes so great . The society is actively led by famous Actor Kyaw Thu .

During “ The September Saffron Revolution “, ( U ) Kyaw Thu & his colleagues had been offering alms to the demonstrating monks . As reprisal measure of the Junta, most of them were banned public appearances.

Elongated Thought

Nothing related to the good deeds of the said society, offering alms is just in his personal capacity. But now, the bad news hit us.

I could find no exact words or adjectives to label the junta’s act.

Prelude to express some indecent things, there is a Burmese saying , that “ please do not listen with your ears, but listen with the sole of feet “

The act of banning the advertisement of a volunteer service and that sort of news should not be worth to be heard even with the sole of our feet !!!
