Resignation of NLD members http://www.mrtv3.net.mm/open/nldhome.html

Dear Patriots,

There are many ways to look at these resignations. One , from brighter side, they resigned from NLD to establish another political party, to be ready and prepare for, to take part in next Genereal election. To dis - associate from Ma Su Kyi. To have their own idendity.

Two, they are fed up with NLD because NLD leadership is parylised, it is a dead duck, cannot function.

OR they are totally fed up with the Myanmar politic. They found out by themselves that under NLD copuld not control Union of Myanmar as one country. NLD n=believes in democracy and human rights without any questions. They cannot take the heat.

Democracy and human rights are like a very fine linin or a piece of clothe. To make a shirt or a trouser, it can't be a ready made, it has to be made to measure or tailor made to fit individual need, which means like shirts and trousers of many sizes, one size won't fit everybody.

Socialism or Communism can not make everybody equal. The same with capitalism, which based on democracy and human rights.

Most NLD members have had no poloitical ambitions. They jumped on the wagon. When the going is rough and tough they jump off the wagon.

From the time they joined the NLD they think their path will be gold plated ( yellow brick road) and flowered wil roses and jasmins.

They ( NLD members)in Myanmar saying " Htamain Nar Kho Sar". THEY including U Tin Oo were hiding under the skirt of Ma Su Kyi. NLD is the snake without the head. It can do nothing without Ma SU Kyi, it is evident.

Amagine what could happened when the nation is in the hands of these people. Her members may not be able to do anything on their own / no annitiative , she may have to tell her to do this to do that, Ma Su Kyi could automatically become a leader without any help from her members, if not the dictator. How long would she last she may even become a poor little lamb for secrifice.

Myanmar and the people of Myanmar are so lucky up to now. What will be their future depends on them and them alone.

Thunderbolts.

I feel so sorry for our military government. What makes them to announce happily the news of resigning a few opposition party members in the paper? They really think they have to do it for their survival? Even military officers felt a shame of that.
Nobody can check, they should have made thousands if they like to. Sometimes even one party member resining. So low.
