State Counsellor of Myanmar

The State Counsellor of Myanmar is the de facto head of government of Myanmar. ...

The post was created on 6 April 2016 to allow for a greater role for Aung San Suu Kyi within the Government of Myanmar. Aung San Suu Kyi's National League for Democracy won a landslide victory in the 2015 Myanmar general election but she is constitutionally barred from becoming President of Myanmar as her late husband Michael Aris and her two children hold British nationality. ... The bill to create the post was ... signed by the President Htin Kyaw on 6 April 2016.

@HonestDictator

100% agree with you. I don't know why the countries that call themselves civilized won't intervene. Is it because they are Muslims?

I don't know whether this is a true story. I want to hear Myanmar side of story too.

Conflict resolution in such a region is primitive, and I'm sure the situation is more complex than what the UN wants to report. Wasn't it the UN that said the southern Vietnamese in 1975 were facing an imminent bloodbath after the fall of Saigon?

There are 2 sides to this coin. We don't hear the other side, because minorities are always assumed to be the oppressed, an experience that purifies them or automatically elevates them to higher moral ground, according to Western mythology, while the majority are by default the oppressors and hence responsible for everything that is bad.

There never is an excuse for "ethnic cleansing" and genocide. Both sides or no.
