The lady elected has turned a blind eye unfortunately.

It is their country, their Moslems, their problem, their decisions, not yours.
Or is it that you know better how "the poor brown people" should run their country, deal with their immigration?.... max, it sounds as if you are unfamiliar with what is going on over there. You seem to be confused.
I am sure you are going to edumacate me on "what is going on over there".
Apparently by reading news releases written by the superior and civilized "reporters", you are now an expert on foreign policy, foreign cultures and are able to dictate local policy to the poor natives.
I do not have your racist, colonialist streak of "White Man's Burden", telling locals of how they should behave.
Unlike you, unlike some other tourists here, I actually spend the time living with people involved, learning their culture, understanding their problems, their issues, the negatives and their positives.
That understanding makes me successful.
That is also the reason for my consistent stand against us getting involved in the losing situations like Sudan, Syria, Libya and Somalia, or getting out of Afghanistan the minute we got Bin Laden.
Burma is not any different.
Even you, hon, have managed to learn from my posts, after your initial unwavering support for Obama numerous attempts to intervene in Syria (until the lessons of his Libyan adventure sunk in), you started see things my way, that we should stay out of the country, pretty much quoting me word for wprd...
In case you do want to understand much more than what the shallow mass media has covered of Burma ethnic problems, you can start a separate tread on that subject and I will be happy to give you an in depth explanation.....
