I spoke for rule of law. And rule of law covers rules of citizenship as well. This is what I mean by saying the root of the problem is lack of rule of law. We are not certain exactly what the requirements of citizenship laws are. I will mention one particular case of one of our candidates for the last by-election who was disqualified because in accordance with the election regulations, all candidates have to be born of nationals, both parents must be nationals. This candidate of ours, his parents, both of them are Burmese nationals when he was born. But later, his father took another nationality. And on those grounds, he was disqualified as a candidate. ….. Even with regard to citizenship we are not clear what the laws really are. Rule of law, if you have very clear as to who are the citizens of the country under the citizenship laws and who qualified, then there would not be this problem which is always coming up there is an accusation, some people do not belong in Bangladesh and some people do not belong in Burma. Bangladesh says that they are not ours and Burma says that they are not ours and these poor people get shuffled around. So we have to have rule of law, we have to know what the law is. We have to make sure that it is properly implemented.
ေဒၚေအာင္ဆန္းစုၾကည္က ကနဦးမွာ တရားဥပေဒစိုးမိုးေရးက အဓိက အရင္းအျမစ္ပဲဆိုတာကို ထိမိရိုးရွင္းစြာ ေျဖၾကားခဲ့တာပါ။ ေဒၚေအာင္ဆန္းစုၾကည္ရဲ႕ အေျဖကို ျမန္မာမွဳျပဳရရင္ –
I do not know because when you talk about the Rohingya, we are not quite sure who you are talking about. As I said there is a problem about who we are referring to. There is someone who says that those people who claim to be Rohingyas are not the ones who are actually native to Burma. But who are just come over recently from Bangladesh. But, on the other hand, Bangladesh says No. They don’t want them as refugees because they are not native to Bangladesh and they come over from Burma. So how do we sort this out without “RULE OF LAW”, without proper Immigration Processes, without proper policy, without properly implementation of laws. This is why I said the root of all is “The RULE OF LAW” going back to many decades, not going back just to the crime that is just committed a couple of months ago.

1) The law of citizenship. What are the citizenship laws in Burma like? Are these just? Are these in line with internationally acceptable standard? ေဒၚေအာင္ဆန္းစုၾကည္က
အဲ နံပါတ္ ၂ ေနရာမွာ ေဒၚေအာင္ဆန္းစုၾကည္ ေျပာသြားတာက procedural ပါ။ ဘိုလိုကေတာ့ အၾကမ္းဖ်င္း ဒီလိုမ်ိဳးပါ။ How do the immigration authorities work? How do the police work? How do the court work?
These two are essential to find why stateless persons are stateless. Whether there is not something that can be done to assure the position within the rule of law.
# 3. Misinformation: This is a subtle technique, it involves reporting information in such a way that the final message of the story is not true, it’s what the propagandist wants you to believe.
On yesterday, 12.30am, the lentil storehouses had been set fire in Ta Zaung Yoe village which is located in between two well-known towns, Yekyi and Athote, in Ayeyarwaddy division. Arson was allegedly started by four stranger Buddhist monks and which completely destroyed a storehouse and a motorbike possessed by a Muslim business man, U Hanif.
Fire crews from Yekyi and Athote fought the arson successfully within an hour with the help of surrounding residences.
Storehouse guard had tried to persuade the perpetrators. “Those four monks are not from my town. They are new faces as I know almost all the monks from surrounding area. After they’d set up fire, left on a truck. I couldn’t have a scene to its license plate because of darkness”, he told to myanmarmuslim.net on phone.
There have been reported about the state governor who personally came and inspected the situation on today’s morning.
According to the residences, it is noted that there have been Buddhists and ruly Muslims stay together peacefully for a long time in the area of Nga Thahine Gyaung, Yekyi and Athote.
This is the second incident happened against the Burmese Muslims after the unrest in Rakhine state.
