Myanmar Papers Call for Action Against Suu Kyi
((NOTE: The SPDC again makes excuses and crys when it is loosing face

               YANGON, Aug 2 (Reuters) - A commentary in Myanmar's
               state newspapers on Monday accused opposition leader
               Aung San Suu Kyi of "brazenly spoiling peace" and
               reiterated a call for legal action against her. 

               The official Myanma News Agency (MNA), meanwhile,
               quoted powerful intelligence chief Lieutenant-General
Khin
               Nyunt as saying opponents of the military government had
               been plotting to incite unrest next month. 

               The commentary carried by the Myanmar-language
               "Kyemon" and "Myanma Alin" newspapers accused Suu Kyi's
               National League for Democracy of destroying national
               reconciliation. 

               "Especially Daw Suu Kyi is brazenly spoiling peace," it
said.
               The commentary, signed "An Advocate," accused Suu Kyi
               and her cousin Sein Win, who heads a government in exile,
               of seeking foreign assistance, colluding with the
outlawed
               Karen National Union insurgents, and of trying to disrupt
               ceasefire agreements between the government and other
               ethnic groups. 

               "She is cutting the union into pieces so the
neo-colonialists
               can swallow it piece by piece after its disintegration.
Once
               she succeeds in her work, the union will be in
bloodshed." 

               Suu Kyi should no longer be tolerated and forgiven, it
said. 

               "I hereby suggest on behalf of the nationalities of the
Union
               that the government should take effective action against
her
               in accord with the prevailing laws." 

               The official papers in Myanmar are usually considered the
               mouthpiece of the military government, but similar calls
               against Suu Kyi since her release from six years' house
               arrest in 1995 have not resulted in legal action against
her. 


               Khin Nyunt, considered the most powerful figure in the
ruling
               State Peace and Development Council, on Sunday accused
               opponents of plotting unrest to mark "four nines" day --
               September 9, 1999. 

               "They are attempting to create disturbances like the
               four-eight riots," MNA quoted him as telling an Interior
               Ministry meeting. 

               Khin Nyunt was referring to August 8, 1988, the date
taken
               to mark the start of a nationwide democracy uprising the
               military crushed the following month. 

               Khin Nyunt accused foreign broadcasting stations of
               "spreading propaganda with a view to panicking the people
               saying that it will be 'four nines' this time." 

               "Those who are involved in this matter and how they are
               involved are becoming reasonably clear now. The people
               will be informed about it when time is ripe," he added. 

               After the 1988 uprising, the government accused the
British
               Broadcasting Corporation of inciting unrest by
publicising a
               student call for mass demonstrations on September 8,
1988. 

               The Mynamar-language services of Voice of America and
               Radio Free Asia have carried reports recently quoting
               dissidents in exile as calling for anti-government
protests on
               September 9.
