Who Else Could the Culprit Be But the King (Thein Sein) Himself? (Part 3)

Again, look into how Myanmar TV broadcasted the incidence of the alleged rape on 28th May 2012.

It was broadcasted as Yoshi called Thet Thet s/o U Kyaw Thaung Bengali Islam, Rofi s/o Soyad Amed Bengali Isalm, Huchi s/o Aye Kwe Chi had abducted Ma Thida Tway to the forest, hugged, raped her one by one and killed her by slaughtering with knife. The way news was broadcasted was like the broadcaster was sitting by the side at the time of the crime taking place. Was it necessary for Myanmar TV to broadcast as Yoshi BENGALI ISLAM? Why did they prioritize the religion in broadcasting about a crime? What was their intention? Moreover, was it according to the media professional ethics that broadcasting that Ma Thia Da Tway was slaughtered by these people before the Court decisions? Was it not derogatory? Was it not inappropriate influence on the court judgment? With whose permission did the national TV dare do so? Was it not stimulating racism the way the broadcaster broadcasted the news in a descriptive means? They should at least have broadcasted that the criminals pleaded guilty to the Police. Yet, there is also a question whether pleading guilty to the police is legal in the court or not. It was evil deeds and against media ethics the way they have provokingly broadcasted as if they had seen the crime going on. Their journalists should not be too dumb to understand the media ethics even to the least degree!! After all, they dared not edit the news since the direction had come from the senior officials!

Similar to what Myanmar TV did, let me share you the news in the national newspaper. I think you all remember Muslims protested nearby SULAY because of this news. Here is it.

Regarding Ma Thida Tway’s case, who was “brutally” “insulted” by Muslim Kalars, and their other “intentional” “brutalities”, Taung Gok WanThaNu Rakkhita Organization is distributing pictured hand-outs with the late person’s photo titled “Creating Awareness” in order to create awareness among the people.

Subsequently, the news of the deaths of the ten people from Roma-Thessa Bus broke out. I have put some inverted commas in the piece of news above. Look at the words in the inverted commas. You will clearly understand how unethically and disrespectfully the State Newspaper and State Television spread the news! The words “brutally” and “Insulted” were the remarkable words chosen by the editors to influence the audiences. The writing “Muslim Kalars and their other intentional brutalities” is clearly leading to a fight between all the Rakhines and all the Muslims. How do you respected editors know that all Muslims are intentionally brutal to all Rakhines? Moreover, simultaneous broadcastings and writings by State TV and State Newspapers respectively can no way be accidental! Suppose it was not the direction from the higher officials but an accident, all of these dumb and evil information ministers and officials should be sacked. Besides, they even deserve imprisonments.

One more thing I have to say is that this news is an incomplete one. The newspaper did not explain what WanThaNu Rakkhita Orgaization, Taung Gok Twonship had been. Furthermore, the newspaper did not explain what had been written in the hand-outs of WanThaNu Rakkhita Organisation. Though the newspaper wrote as if the massacre of the 10 people had occurred due to WanThaNu Rakkhita's hand-outs, it did not give a comprehensible reason behind the massacre. In fact, WanThaNu Rakkhita is the NLD Youth Wing of Taung Gok Township. It is necessary to investigate whether the hand-outs that came out with the name of Taung Gok's NLD was really published by the Taung Gok's NLD members and to let the public know about it. If it is found that the letter was published by them, justice will be done only when they are punished according to the law and without any discrimination. If they can’t ensure whether the letters were written by Taung Gok's NLD Youth Wing, the newspaper should at least let the people know that they are not sure about that yet and will investigate further into the matter. If it is found that the newspaper spread such kinds of news without verification and ascertaining, the newspaper must be punished, regardless of it being the state newspaper, for derogation, defamation and committing the offense. I suspect very much whether it is a political trap for NLD! After all, how can one guarantee that Military Dictators would not do such a thing when they have the habits of Bing-Pit-Phan (arresting the innocent people and political activists by means of fake drug cases), Tabi-Pit-Phan (Throwing ladies sarong: a tactic of Burmese regime to arrest people. Especially, it is done to the Monks by Burmese Regime alleging that they (Monks) have affairs with women.) and Lu-Pit-Phan (Arresting someone alleging to have affairs with someone breaking the law. Especially it was done against Daw Suu Kyi by sending John Yettaw into her house).

By this, it has become quite obvious who the players behind the mask are, who are pulling the ropes and who are setting all these traps up.

To be continued.
