Junta never feel ashamed for their power hungry, no matter for them
how many people are died.
Junta is now clearly showing power is more im****tant than its people
lives.
Even during the more than million of people are in trouble, junta set
first priority for their power grip.
Junta confiscates aids from international help instead of they have to
help those helps/aids to reach to victims as soon as possible.
Junta taking time to issue visa for UN experts to help victims.
They know very well, taking one day can make how many people died.
Junta wants to take advantages from those aids for their propaganda
instead of giving first priority for the victims.
Shame!
