Should Suu Kyi bear all the blame?
This letter refers to the article titled “Suu Kyi's shocking fall from grace” by Peter Andre Globensky and Iqbalur Rahman published in this newspaper. The authors demanded that “she immediately instruct the Myanmar military to cease and desist from their murderous actions against the Rohingya minority.”
Do they really think that the Myanmar military will listen to her? Burmese generals didn't even listen to the previous president Thein Sein of the party supported by them while doing the same thing to other ethnic groups in upper Myanmar.
The military allowed Rohingya into Myanmar many decades ago. The ongoing operations against the Rohingya are, in my opinion, a part of the military's plan to defame Suu Kyi and make the country unstable so that it can be in power again. It's sad to see that everyone is trying to put the blame on a nascent government, which still shares power with the military.
