The Military Leaders of Myanmar are ABOVE the Law
Our beloved and respected leader, General Ne Win, knowingly married Yadana
Nat Mai, a foreign citizen who was born in a foreign country, after
divorcing his wife Daw Ni Ni Myint. He was never disqualified from
standing
for election, and he never resigned from office because of his marriage to
a
foreign citizen. He was responsible for the death of thousands of people
in
July 1962 and subsequent years. No punitive action was taken against him.

Sein
Lwin"), was responsible for the death of thousands of people in 1988. No
punitive action was taken against him.
Our beloved and respected leader, Senior General Saw Maung, was
responsible
for the death of thousands of people in 1988 and subsequent years. No
punitive action was taken against him.
Our beloved and respected leader, Senior General Than Shwe, was
responsible
for the death of thousands of people in 1988 and subsquent years,
especially
