re: "Dialogue: A step in the right direction" (BP, Opinion, March 21, 2023)
Dear editor,
When Kavi Chongkittavorn writes of the conflict resolution regarding "the Myanmar quagmire" itself remaining conflicted that "It's nobody's fault," does that mean he thinks committing a coup against your own people to overthrow your own nation's popular form of democratic government, and to thereby massively regress the economic, social, political and moral well being of the people and their nation is not an act with appalling consequence for which its perpetrators are at fault?
Kavi's piece, however, might leave readers a little perplexed: Was Myanmar's National Unity Government (NUG), one of those "dialogue partners" present for the "unfiltered exchanges" that most recently confirmed the divisions? More or less perplexing, the author later opines in the same piece that "besides Nay Pyi Taw, other participants understood full well who the main troublemakers were and the sources of all the troubles that preceded the current quagmire." That does sound as though the author might well suspect who is at fault for "the Myanmar quagmire."
Naturally, the State Administrative Council (SAC) likes ASEAN's Five Point Consensus; since it was promulgated in April 2021, they have used it as a convenient tool by which to put off any substantive move to restore the governance of the Myanmar nation, and its natural wealth being plundered, to the Myanmar people.
