Review of "The 1988 Uprising in Burma" by Dr Maung Maung (Foreword by Franklin Mark Osanka), Monograph 49/Yale Southeast Asia Studies...."...Dr Maung Maung?s memoirs of the 1988 Burmese uprising "misremembers"; oft times it falsifies, misrepresents, distorts, obfuscates, whitewashes and can in its best light be described as an "apologia"in a fully uncomplimentary sense. Hence the author?s "memory" hinders rather than helps the cause for human rights as far as the struggle is concerned. Nevertheless, from a consequentialist viewpoint, it is hoped that the publication of the book will help some people who were involved in, affected by or take a genuine and concerned interest in the events of 1988 in Burma- to rise from their "forgetfulness" and also to help properly freshen their memory. In this review, the reviewer has attempted to highlight some of the misremembrances of the author with the hope that a small step can be taken towards refreshing and articulating the "memory" of those who were and are affected by the 1988 uprising in Burma..."
