  1. Mr. U Shwe Mg has nothing to afraid with the intimidation of Myanmar officials for the truth he exposed on burning Du Cheeradan village where more than 21 houses gone under the fire set fire by the police Luntein on the night of 28 Jan 2014.Before setting fire two polices came riding a motorcycle ,carrying petrol or kerosene bottles at the back of the motorcycle at about 4.30 pm according to witnesses who were watching from a long distance hiding themselves for fear of shooting by the polices.They poured kerosene at day light as there were not a single men at the village and at night they again appeared at the same spot at night
    about 8.30 pm ,they set fire the houses they targeted to burn.But who will risk to probe it as the regime justice is at their gun points.
