"...During and after the trial against Daw Aung San
Suu Kyi and Mr Yettaw, our country came under
pressure put and attacks launched by elements inside
and outside the country, which is common knowledge.
They claimed that the accused were charged, put
on trial and punished according to the expired constitution,
so the government took unjust action. In
reality, the laws remain in force so long as the ruling
government revokes and dissolves them and their
provisions are not contrary to the present constitution.
I do not want to make further clarification to
that. Prison terms were sentenced to the accused as
the legal proceedings are in conformity with the law
and they were found guilty.
It is very welcoming that the Head of State commuted
the terms with consideration. I would say it is
positive attitude showed looking forward to positive
results..."

"The final judgment on Daw Aung San Suu Kyi
attracted widespread reactions from the groups inside
and outside the nation. As usual, the West Bloc was
dissatisfied with the final judgment and said they would
tighten economic sanctions against the nation. It is
regrettable to learn that the European Union imposed
more sanctions against Myanmar on 13 August.
For what are Western powers imposing unfair
sanctions against Myanmar?..." ... Article on international attitudes and actions towards Burma, including the visit by US Senator Jim Webb

"Loving-kindness attracts loving-kindness" Mahn Tha Sein (Papun) ["...Issuing the directive, the Head of State not only respected the law but also expressed consideration towards Daw Aung San Suu Kyi to his highest degree for her comfort and convenience. In the international arena, the ruling government not only exercised the jurisdiction skillfully, but also relieved the concerns of the foreign countries and regional countries that favour the interest of Myanmar. The directive can be deemed to be an important decision that helps avert needless consequence of instability, and an opportunity given for carrying on the democratization without infringing stability and peace..."].

"The European Union (EU) Presidency issued a declaration on 11th June 2009 voicing its
unwarranted concern at the alleged mounting offensive of the Myanmar Army and its allies
against the Karen National Liberation Army (KNLA) in the Myanmar-Thai border areas which
resulted in large numbers of so-called civilians fleeing from the conflict area in Kayin State to
Thailand.
It is quite obvious that the EU's declaration must have been based on inaccurate news
emanated from the insurgent groups. The tone and tenor of the declaration obviously reflects the
total ignorance of EU Presidency on the true facts and main causes of the clashes between the
two factions of the armed groups..."
