Arakan ; Let's Go Forward!


This is December 31st of 2011. Two Hundred and Twenty-Seven years ago on this day, the great country of Arakan was brutally annexed by Burmese army.
Since then, we were oppressed, humiliated and systematically discriminated by Burmese authorities generation by generation.

According to news-reports, though we have great coasts, river-routes, off-shore gas products, which makes billions of dollars each year, and many other products, the Arakan is now the second poorest region of Burma. We are one of the poorest, the most illiterate and the most undeveloped societies in the world, under Burman-colonization.

Now, we, new Arakanese generation no longer can tolerate this worst condition of Arakan. We have to recreate our own destiny, our future and our fatherland.

The followings are great pictures of demonstration of our great brothers that located in front of the building of United Nation in New York. This is the second straight year of demonstration of our heroic and responsive Arakanese brothers as they truly love Arakanland.

We, Arakanese respect the rights of all other nationalities of our human families of the world. As members of world family, we also wish our rights, freedom, independence and self-determination to be recognized.
Great causes in humanity often occurred when one group of human beings are ruled and oppressed forcefully by the other group.

With great respect of the other nations of the world, Arakan once a great country in Asia also should be recognized its statehood sooner, rather than later!!!

Free Arakan!

Happy New Year 2012!




Rechecking New Year Resolution 2011

My Happy New Year resolution for the year of 2011 will be to read or write or do something about the Buddha’s teaching as my personal favorite subject; something about / for Arakan as my native land; and something about the United States / the World as a citizen, each week. The action will be one of reading something about those subjects, writing something about those matters, or commenting or sharing or posting something as web-page/s.

(The above is my new year resolution of 2011.)


As this is the final day of 2011, I am rechecking my happy New Year resolution that I made in January if the resolution has been being met or not. It did meet.
I have been publishing “The Arakan International” monthly in Arakanese. I did read the Buddha’s teachings as much as I could. I published “Questions and Answers of New U.S. Naturalization Test” in translated version from English to Burmese. It sold out at least 800 copies.

Since then, I have been doing something about Arakan, the United States, the World and the Buddha’s teaching.

Moreover, I did not absolutely drink six months (from July 1st to December 31st) as I made self-promise by June, 2011. So, it really makes me happy today.

Good-bye 2011!

Let’s move forward into happy new year 2012 with new energy, new experiences, new challenges and new achievements, of course!
