Can Myanmar return to democracy? | Inside Story

I am a Korean. As a citizen of a country that experienced the passion of democratization first, I know better than anyone else how precious democracy is.

More like Aung San Suu Kyi was never really in power. The military were in charge, but she was a figurehead. Conveniently for the military, she was a lightening rod taking all the hits from the international community for all the wrongs which she was powerless to change. The military were happy with that arrangement until they saw her as a real threat when her party won the election in November by a landslide. They have always been the power behind the throne. Now, they are back to being the power on the throne.

[@yapadqoi]

@Diana Jue Fair enough. But what I was suggesting is, a sitting US President falsely claiming an unfair election and trying to stage a coup to overturn the results was a kind of encouragement to the military in Myanmar, and frankly to all politicians around the world. Even in West African solid democracy, Ghana, the presidential election was contested by the losing candidate who happens to be himself a former president who had accepted a peaceful transition the first time he lost the elections 5 years ago, as did his predecessors for decades. And all of a sudden, seeing what was going on in the US he tried to pull what I call a Trump. That’s the bad example that was set by Donald Trump. It will take for ever to fix this kind of damage.

I may be wrong, but I think by having the military to be an active political party who are being the opposition is a really bad position. Because if the military is outside of the ruling government, then whoever wins the general election that's not the military party will not have their support. So the crimes against the Rohingya people makes more sense if they were carried out by the military faction (which are not loyal to the ruling government in the first place) so the entire ruling government will not have any power to control or stop it. Military should be neutral, and loyal to whichever democratically elected government. they should not be allowed to run as a political party.

Suu Kyi backed the massacre of Rohingya people to be in the graceful side of military, despite the international condemnation. Yet this is her destination... This is called Karma!!

[@drunkensailor8182]

Rohingya problem is seeded by the British. Any karma should befall on UK.

Free Myanmar from the grip of Amnesty International..

[@luxannefelix9681]

For people who are saying that ASSK was sheltering the military when they were called to court. Was she supposed to admit that she, as a president, cannot control her own military? In outsider's eyes, she and the military are one in the same; Myanmar. As long as you do a little bit of research, you can discover that the parliament is made of two opposing democracy and military. And the military is always wanting to throw dirty water on her, why? So that the military can get their money & power back. With the current coup as proof, u can see how greedy the military is. They don't care about the people nor the country's reputation. Willing to do anything, even risk getting other international countries involved.

Impossible due to China's Veto power, China want Military Government so that they can control and they can get whatever they want in cheap.

[@nedbless]

China is having a keen eye on this event . They could even have had a sly , slant eyed slithering part in this . In the next ten years there will be much economic progress in Myanmar contributed by China but the white guy won 't like this and there could be repercussions . India and China's relation could be warmer if level headed blokes helm the government . My two pennies worth folks . Peace to the world .

SAVE MYANMAR We don't think we can return to democracy because of Army

[@IamJustAli]

The countries who immediately opposed Myanmar Junta Coup are Australia, Japan, US and UK. It shows that this is a part of US/China global confrontation and its latest battleground is Myanmar.

[@JamesBideaux]

china could be on the military side or not care, they do buisness with anyone.

[@roychowdhury4348]

This could be a ploy to increase international credibility for Honorable Aung San Suu Kyi (Daughter of the General considered Hero by the military) since her reputation has been hurting worldwide due to her support for the military committing genocide and human-rights abuse on the Rohingya people of Myanmar.

[@NuestraPatriaGrande]

Why can not The Security Council authorize a UN force to return Myanmar to civil authority!!

How can you save her, man? She is a snake sucked by her most beloved architect of ethnic cleansing general. Snake sucked by her favorite and beloved snake. Of course, the West will used her against Chinese influence in the region. Cool man cool.

A "close watch" is useless. No ally of the Myanmar people should send a single supply or allow a single vessel in or out of Myanmar until Democracy is fully restored.

[@jermsbestfriend9296]

@@aktarurrahman7940 You make a good point, my friend. You make a good point. It's ridiculous that we live in such a time: even in the developed nations, every minute feels medieval. When will intelligent people come together under a combined, modern moral standard and say "enough is enough"? We have plenty of bright CEOs, but very few of them have the basic common sense to not sell their advanced equipment to horrendous humans rights abusers. Worldwide, there is no group ensuring a minimalistic standard of peace, and there absolutely should be. There's no reason any military should have total control over its people in any nation. If a few nations got together in consensus, they could easily tighten the noose around this coupe's neck. My question is: why are civilized nations willing to block foreign interference, but they're never willing to prevent homegrown terror? You look at the police in the United States, and the way they corroborate with justice officials: the way local government feeds into state government, and they're all cheating the common people with impunity, and you wonder why we don't have a citizens justice bureau to try the corrupt public officials (and even more, why the international community isn't outlining a way to implement such a thing and demanding that it happen ASAP). It might sound 'futuristic' or 'far-fetched' to suggest a system that would be less susceptible (or even nearly immune) to corruption, but we live in the age of technology! Our court systems should be (and probably could be) as sophisticated, human-proof, and consistent as cryptocurrency--there's no reason they shouldn't be! We have everything we need to craft a perfect government, and it probably doesn't even matter if it just starts with 10 people and a small plot of land: if it works, eventually it should take over. I'm so tired of it, bro. When are we, as a society, going to get out of the dark ages and say, in unity, 'bring the future in'.

Democracy base on human right such as freedom of religion. There is no human right in Myanmar because there was genocide of people of Rohingya. Aung San Suu Kie kept quiet when the army had been killing the people of Rohinggya

[@davidmynn8310]

When the members of Burma Army talks about Democracy, They are talking about the Tribal-Democracy which is the only thing they understand. Daw Suu Kyi means Democracy, a genuine precious Democracy and as precious as Gold in the eyes of the international community as well as for the innocent people of Burma. We have a problem here, because we can not mix gold with with cheap plastic-rubbish in the house of goldsmith or in the house of parliament.The only thing we should do now is to pick p the rubbish and chuck them out. Let the EU send the responsible generals to the international court of justice in the Hague.
