It seems that the increase of the fuel prices in August was in line with the SPDC’s strategy for “striking out" the democratic opposition.

The military junta presumed that the result of the National Convention for the new constitution would not be accepted by the international community, NLD, democratic movement, ethnic organizations and the people of Burma. And SPDC therefore should have problem with that in the future.

SPDC had to find a reason to "strike out" the democratic opposition, so that the military junta could continue to rule the country. If the SPDC "provoked" the democratic opposition with something, so that activists should start to demonstrate on the streets against the military regime, the SPDC authorities have the possibility to identify the democracy activists and their leaders, and thereafter take actions against those people, which the tyrannical military junta did!

When the civilian demonstrators and the Buddhist Monks and Nuns, were marching peacefully on the streets all over the country the evil SPDC junta saw a reason to take care of an "internal security problem".The SPDC used massive resources: army, riot police, military intelligence, USDA (SPDC’s Storm Troopers) and hired thugs when they committed the must brutal crackdown on the demonstrators including the respected Buddhist Monks !

In front of TV-cameras, SPDC’s crack-units, murdered, beat and arrested a large number of Monks and civilian people.

According to reliable sources at least 300 men and women were killed, and about 6,000 Monks, Nuns and civilian people were arrested.

Some of the brave people of Burma have already been sentenced to imprisonment, just because they were peaceful asking for democracy, justice, freedom and for the release of Aung San Suu Kyi and all other political prisoners.

It is certain that the SPDC’s very brutal crackdown on the protests will not stop the oppressed people of Burma; they will continue to demand Human Rights and democracy!

The only question is: how will the struggle for democracy continue?

A Swedish diplomat Mr Johan Hallenborg was located in Rangoon during SPDC´s crackdown on the demonstrations. On 2 October Mr Hallenborg gave a briefing to the top level of the UN Human Rights body in Geneva. He said: "we saw heavily armed security forces and soldiers open fire at unarmed civilians". "We also witnessed people being chased down through alleys, and shot by the military while fleeing!"

The diplomat also said: " HE REGARDED THE MONKS AS A SYMBOL OF THE INCREDIBLE PEOPLE OF BURMA, WHO SHOW COURAGE SEEMINGLY WITHOUT LIMITS ! ".

"The military government was arresting Monks and civilians, under the most terrifying circumstances!"

All over the world in the open and democratic nations, governments and the people watched the disgusting SPDC-regime very closely; the international response is just getting started.

The international community know very well about the conditions for the oppressed people of Burma, particularly for the people in the seven ethnic minority states.

If political pressure and economic sanctions are not are enough against the military regime in Burma, then we all have to think about if we have to change our strategy against the worlds must tyrannical military dictatorship regime.

Inside Burma and all over the world, for sure the struggle for democracy in Burma will continue!

The only question is how will the struggle for democracy in Burma continue?
