SPDC'S ART OF CORRUPTING THE ADVERSARIES
*****************************************************************

SPDC may not know how to prescribe effective foreign policies that will
benefit the nation
but they do know how to corrupt the adversaries. US Congressman Tony Hall of
Ohio went to Burma a few months ago to have talks with the military brass
ruling the nation by force. He came back from Rangoon with a negative
atttitude towards Opposition Leader Aung San Suu Kyi and her party. I spoke
with an experienced Burmese  expatraiate who told me that " the Burmese
military brasshats know when to give gifts to their adversaries".

" The Burmese rubies,jades and other precious stones!  Would wouldn't like
them?", said the expatriate who knows the generals like his pocket.  The
people inside the country are paid to inform the intelligence services.
Informers of the military intelligence are  ubiquitous in the business
districts of Rangoon. They have to report to a major who is usually in
charge of 3 townships. It is universally true that paying agents and
informers for the information they provide is routine for intelligence
services. As the technology of the Burmese intelligence services lacks
electronic serveillances, human intelligence has to be a major source of
information. 

Today Burma is under the military rule that has everything to do with
corruption in the army and the Burmese society. To corrupt the army and the
adversaries is what the military brass lives by today.
