We are deeply concerned over the racial clashes that took place as a sequel to an untoward incident in a teashop in Sittwe on the fourth February 2001. According to the report, the Buddhists and the Muslims in the area got locked up in racial riots and the ruling SPDC junta imposed curfew to diffuse the tension. As a result to the incident, there was losses of lives, destruction of property and a deep sense of animosity prevailed upon the two brotherly peoples, the Buddhists and the Muslims.

By Dr. Habib Siddiqui
Military rule in many third world countries of Asia, Africa and Latin America is not a rare event. Sometimes it is for the right reason that is backed up popular support, which earns the coup leaders respect and admiration.

Sometimes it is for the right reason and yet delivering wrong results. Sometimes it is a welcome event and sometimes it is not.
