As far as I know, it is very rare for Burmese to unite for every single Burmese ego is too high to compromise or comprehend the value of mutual understanding let alone to mention respect. The ignorance nature brings down Burma, a once wealthy nation to rock bottom status. It is like an Army where all wants to be officers and no soldiers which is not practical. Burmese should realize that there is no such thing as "lesser" or "higher" for all men (or women) are basically created equal as one brain, 2 hands, 2 legs, 2 eyes, 2 ears, one nose, one mouth, one body one soul. Looking down or looking up should not be the norms of seeing or knowing things or perseptives of each and evey one. All should involve as a "team" participating collectively with acknowledgement to the contribution of each individual no matter what his/her status is in retrospect. Especially the ones on the top should be well aware of taking into account of each individual's value regardless of age, gender, religion, education or culture background and willing to accept the contributions of that particular individual's action. Agree or disagree is one matter, acknowledge and value is another.
