susu saves world

[susuhuang@xxxxxxxxxxx]

OK time for me to save world again

people write to me after i write about suppayalat and say, who is tinker? 
who is cady? what is book?

SO -  here list of books to read to talk about burma. beginner list! short 
list! all english-language! very easy! but only starting point! OK GET 
PENCIL TAKE NOTE!

"oh susu help help so much work!" ok, you go read trivia site, person with 
tiny head! do not read book, it might confuse you.

you may notice, no aung san suu kyi book on this list -  you already know 
ASSK, i do not need to tell you. if you do not know ASSK then please jump 
off building, you are useless person.

if you are like most people, you buy assk book and never read. it sits on 
shelf, very pretty. nice picture! penguin books thanks you smart shopper!

also, you have read bertil lintner's book outrage. i hope! if not, no hope 
for you, go to trivia site with your tiny head. also, do not bother about 
"revolution of the spirit" it is mainly picture book for baby. if you are 
baby go ahead, read it, it will not hurt you.

OK? also for basic early history read desai, harvey, many others, you can 
find easily in library, use brain if available. also michael aung-thwin for 
pagan era. also the burman by shwe yoe, most books of maurice collis. 
obvious, i hope you have already read tnhis easy stuff.

most of these books written before slorc/assk. THAT IS THE POINT! look at 
roots of burmese culture and political history to understand present! right? 
slorc came from bspp, right? usda came from lanzin youth, right? u kyi maung 
came from revolutionary council, right again?

yes of course, susu always right do not argue.

also most recent books not so useful in understanding most important things:
1. why postwar democracy failed in burma
2. roots of burmese political culture
3. nature of military rule
4. civil war and ethnic groups

also please find new monograph by mary callahan -- very smart lady! i do not 
have title unfortunately. email me if you know.

also if you want to write to me, discuss idea, please write!

ok, trust susu, she is gentle, she is kind, like little flower.

but read books first, i kill stupid people and eat them so watch out!
