The Union of Burma is containing different ethnicity, so there are different cultural, different literatures and different values, but Burman ethnic is still not recognize them. They are only Burmanization and coercion policy toward other ethnicity. It was since 1948; therefore many non-Burman ethnics believe that the ethnic Burman is violator of natural rights and broken of moral obligation in Burma. Burman ethnic has been stated that 60% population is the ethnic Burman, but it is not sure at all; for instance, the ethnic Burman-Chin married and they born child is going to be listed ethnic Burman and also ethnic Karen-Mon married and they born child is possible going to list Burman ethnic etc. because Burma census is infallibility.
What is political interests in the Union of Burma, if you are adopted democratic principles in Burma you should understand democratic norms and values, so our political interests are protecting and prosperity of its citizen and as well as others. But, Burman ruler is never ignored it. Everyone should respect universal values at home and around the world, but ethnic Burman ruler has been failed since 1948. After independence Burman ethnic has been belligerency to other ethnicities to control country everlasting without regarding other people rights as well as most exile ethnic Burman politicians are the same ideas. Burman people are not being devoted well on placidity in country. They are predominated compulsion philosophy among them. The ethnic Burman is eschewing to express as one ethnic group from Burma because perhaps most ethnic Burman are misunderstanding between in terms of "ethnic and nationality." Therefore, all Burmanan publications, news, and radio have not been expressed as one ethnic in the Union of Burma, so it is historically prevaricating by Burman ethnic group. Also, soft power is one of very important in democratization, but many ethnic Burman radio station is committing dissemble, and make use of tool of power for Burman ethnocentrism. For example, one of outside radio stations, the BBC Burmese service is more following Burmanism ideas because everyone can see on their website that "Thi Yin Thar Yeyar and Myanmnmar Yeyar," so it is vexing and disparaging to the alll ethnicity in Burma, also it is assuming that apocalyptic ideas and unbalance among the all ethnic groups in Burma. It is so bad propaganda from BBC Burmese service.
The Arakan and Mon are descended very earlier than the ethnic Burman in today so called the Union of Burma. However, the ethnic Burman is shameless doing that "the ethnicic Burman is only superior ethnic in Burma." As huuman being it is deeply shocking such Burman ethnic conduct toward other ethnicity. The Burman ethnic history started AD 1044 and the ethnic Arakan history recorded BC 3325, so it is huge distinction between the ethnic Burman and Arakanese. It is look like ethnic Burman is grandson level by Arakan people. Therefore, Burman ethnic needs to effort in truth to be accept by other ethnic groups. This is an inappropriate issue by Burman ethnic and also very against universal values. This is not partial and against ethnic Burman and also there is looking to express good conducts about ethnic Burman, but there is not found anything about ethnic Burman moral obligation in the Union of Burma history.
There is no idea that how ethnic Burman is going to define about in term of "eththnic" probably they think that “in term of ethnic" mean lower stage than "nationality." So, the most Burman educated d people know that, but no one wants to fix to be justice and equality among different ethnicity. Original ethnic is more powerful in term of political matter than nationality. For example, if someone is immigrating to some country and this person can have nationality in that country, but a person is not going to get opportunity as state's president because se a person is not natural born in there. So, that means nationality can be any person in Burma, but cannot be original ethnic. So, there is considered that the ethnic Burman is one of original ethnic group in the Union of Burma. Also, all people are born and there have to the same rights in Burma. In addition, the ethnic Burman is calling more democratic value in Burma, but they not follow what a democratic value is because many other people seem that Burman ethnic is still grasping ethnocentrism inside and outside of Burma. So, other ethnic non-Burman nationalities are more bitterness about Burman ethnic conducts and also seriously hard to trust them because they are historically nefarious at any level stage and by the ethnic Burman.
The ethnic Burman is not yet lesson or regret today's world, so there is just let them to know that today world is reaal world and the ethnic Burman needs to avoid cheating at all, and they need to bring to an end about hostile and compulsion toward other ethnicity in Burma. The country is very poor level because it has been filthy ruling by the ethnic Burman. The ethnic Burman not yet views today's world political system. There is never experience like U Thein Sein ruling system in political cultural, because U Thein Sein democracy power is flowing from the ethnic Burman group, even though there is a lot of ethnicity and they have broken constitution and all other parties are just powerless in Senate or Thein Sein ruling political system. It is not the way political system in Burma and it is till antagonistic toward other ethnicity because most military leaders are very lack of understanding political science or universal value in democratic principles. For example, The Kachin Independence Army (KIA) officials, led by second-in-command Gen Gun Maw, met with the Burmese military delegations led by Col. Than Aung, minister for border affairs in Kachin State. According to their meeting video type, Col. Than Aung was not treat KIO like as ethnic conflict issue and only emphasized on surrender policy. Col. Than Aung addressed that "if bad child isis being run from home, but when he right viewed and returned to home, parents have to accept him." It was very insulting alll ethnicity of non-Burman and KIO, because we are fighting equality and justice for all people in the Union of Burma. Many such like people are bestowing political power in Thein Sein's democracy system.em. It is very bad for different ethnicity reconciliation issue and his skills is only focus on ethnocentrism policy and it's so ro ridiculous level. If Burman ethnic group is not going to change their minds and conducts in this era in so called the Union of Burma continue trouble, it is so depending Burman ethnic group.
