  • To the reporter and ...

    To the reporter and your cameraman OUTSTANDING JOB IN REPORTING. You both are very brave to work hard and risk your lives to get the story and the truth out. Kenji Nagai risked his life, and paid with it, to get the truth out too. My heart goes out to his friends and loved ones. WE ARE NOT GETTING AS MUCH GOOD IN DEPTH COVERAGE HERE IN THE U.S.A. as we are from utube with it's worldwide sources.

  • For those who ...

    For those who follow order and hurt innocent monks. You know what karma you'll get.
    Don't excuse yourself by saying you just follow order. You are Worthless and should be ashamed.
    You hurt someone today, you'll pay for it.
    You hurt hearts of millions as well by doing that.
    Please Stop

  • I know many ...

    I know many military men that quit the army, knowing that what they do it COMPLETELY WRONG.
    Two Thumbs Up for you, you should be proud of yourselves.
    This is the corrupt government that you are serving. Only a few corrupt people at the top that are commanding and controlling.
    The quickest way to bring down government like that is as follow.
    We need HEROs in armies to take down those leaders and reform. The problem with Dictatorship is one army is afraid to go by his will because of another.

  • The United States, ...

    The United States, Britain, and a French government were defeated at
    China and Russia in the United Nations because of politics.

    The thing that people in Myanmar become free is very difficult.

    The thing that we can do is a thing asked our governments to help the people in Myanmar.

  • this is incredible ...

    this is incredible . However ... i just feel you should be careful because those people you are interviewing are still in Burma ! and as you know now they are arresting all the people who have participated .... Maybe you should blur their faces so to avoid that they will have problems now. we should take also tht responsability as media. THose people had the hope at that time.. now they have the fear to be arrested and as you know , images are what the junta use.

    Now it is critical time for USA and democracy defenders to do decisive action rather than uncertain moves. If not, forget about fairplay and democracy in SEA region.
