The International Scene
Continued from page 4
civilians who have been suffering
for far too long. Again it is not
surprising that the army, which
wanted to restore some form of
order, started to clash with civilians,
mainly students, who were far more
interested in liberty and equality. So
far the students have come off
second best but that is because the
military has not hesitated one little
bit to wade into the students with all
the force that could be mustered.
When you have handguns and the
other side has artillery, the outcome
is never very much in doubt.
However, students can be a
resilient bunch; one has only to
witness what has been going on in
Korea, before, during and after the
Olympic Games. The army has
promised free elections but such
promises have been heard before in
any number of countries and so
nothing has really been solved.
Burma has a lot of natural wealth
and not only on the land. There is no
doubt that, if the country got its act
together, both economically and
politically, the standard of living
could be much higher than it
currently is - very much higher in
fact. That happy state is a long way
off and in the meantime things may
get worse before they get better.
Expect more rumblings out of
Burma!
