ျပည္တြင္း၌ လွ်ိဳ႕၀ွက္ၿပီး ေနရာေတာ္ေတာ္မ်ားမ်ား၌လည္း သပိတ္ေမွာက္လိုက္သည္ဟု ျပည္တြင္းမွ သံဃာေတာ္မ်ားက သတင္းပါးေၾကာင္း၊ ထိုင္းႏိုင္ငံ၊ သီရိလကၤာ၊ အိႏၵိယ ႏိုင္ငံေတြက သံဃာေတာ္မ်ားကလည္း အားလုံးစုေပါင္းၿပီး သပိတ္ေမွာက္ ကံေဆာင္လိုက္သည့္အတြက္ေၾကာင့္ ယေန႔တြင္ ပတၱနိကၠဳဇၨနကံေဆာင္သပိတ္ အထေျမာက္ေအာင္ျမင္သြားသည္ဟု ၎က ဆက္လက္မိန္႔ၾကားသည္။
ထို႔ျပင္ ေမာ္လၿမိဳင္ၿမိဳ႕၌လည္း သံဃာေတာ္မ်ားက သပိတ္ေမွာက္ ကံေဆာင္လိုက္ၾကေၾကာင္း သိရသည္။

Insein Prison News : Older Nuns and Monks In Bad Health Conditions
19 January 2008
Original report : U Thar Nyunt Oo, VOA
Translation by Nay Chi U
After the last September crackdown of the 'Golden Colour Revolution', many monasteries and nunneries were raided and monks and nuns arrested by authorities acting for the Junta.
One of the monasteries raided was Thisa Tharapu School House in Arthar Wati Monastery Estate in North Okkala, Rangoon. Nuns and monks, some of them middle aged and some elderly have been arrested, and prosecuted for 'bringing religion into disrepute', and derobed. However the noble monks and nuns insist that they have been wrongly accused and carried on with their religious duties, while in custody, eventhough their robes were forcefully ripped off.
U Po Phyu, the solicitor who is representing them at court, explained to VOA that these nuns and monks are suffering from poor and deteriorating health condition as some of them are elderly and furthermore, Thisa Tharapu School House is just an ordinary monastery, serving the poor community of the surrounding area.
"There are 7 nuns and 7 monks altogether: Daw Pyanya Theingi 54, Daw Setta Ti 32, Daw Tay Ri 70, Daw Wonna 67, Daw Ponna Mi 80, Daw Theingi 64 and Daw Thila Nandi 48. The monks are U Arnan Da 61, U Wiimala 66, U Panya Nanda, U Kuthala 63, U Narawara 69, U Withuti 53 and U Pyanya Tharmi 53,"
"U Arnan Da and U Narawara both have had strokes and the two oldest nuns Daw Tay Ri and Daw Ponna Mi have been unwell. They were forced to appear before court and over the 10 court hearings, only one prosecuting witness appeared. Although they have been poorly, and suffering from deteriorating health, they have not received any treatment. Only yesterday, I decided to accept their case," said U Po Phyu.
VOA : What ever have they done to be accused of 'bringing religion into disrepute'?
"There have been quite a few charges: such as receiving cash for admission into the school house, for holding forged certificates, and junior monks pretending to be senior monks, etc,. Moreover, the prosecutions claimed that they confiscated uncensored and pornographic videos. When I asked the monks about them, they had no idea even of their existence and pointed out that they had no video player with which to view videos of any kind. I went to investigate their school house and can confirm that it is truly a very poor monastery and lacking all modern facilities - not a place that you can imagine someone watching any kind of videos."
VOA : What are the charges for the nuns?
"Obviously, they were all charged under the same sections and put together in the same case with the monks. There is no other separate collection of evidence."
VOA : Where and when were they arrested?
"On 29 September, during the September 'revolution'. The authorities acting for the Junta, decided to raid the school house on suspicion, hoping to find lots of politically active young and healthy monks. There was however, only this ageing group resident there but nevertheless they were arrested."
VOA : Did they actually protest during September?
"When I asked if they participated in the protests, they replied that they didn't even go out as they were rather shaken by it all and also some of them were poorly."
VOA : How about the prosecution witnesses and evidence?
"At the moment, the arrest warrant states that there is one forged certificate (monks' qualification) and also several pornographic videos. We can only find out about where they come from during the trial, which has not started yet."
VOA : Are they all detained in Insein prison? Have they been allowed family visits?
"Yes, all of them are in Insein prison. Families can't afford to visit so they only have some donors from N Okkala occasionally, bringing small offerings. The donors themselves are poor so it is just a very sad situation. They have been taken to court 10 or 11 times now and we only found out about it recently. We decided to try our best to represent them and managed to apply for general power only yesterday."

Statement Issued By The All Burma Monks Alliance
Date 01-01-08
1369 Na Daw La Sote 8th , Tuesday
We, the monks, members of the Buddhist Order, being mindful of sympathy and pity for the public and the donors, who were struggling to survive the deep trouble of poverty, decided to overturn the offering bowls, and paraded and marched peacefully. This was done in order to let the ruling government know about the public's suffering and basic struggle to survive.
However, the government, instead of taking responsiblility and resolving the issues and problems of the people and the country, hired criminals and convicts to conduct the brutal crackdown on the peaceful protesters including the monks, as the world has witnessed. Moreover, the government has;
1) tried to separate the monks from the people, either with bribery or threat
2) made accusations that the monks who staged the protests were decoys,
3) been beating, arresting and chasing away monks during the invasion of the monastaries while wearing military boots and also closing down the monastaries,
4) forced derobing, beating, questioning, torturing and incarceration of the monks
5) restricted or prevented the movment and travel of monks
6)been forbidding abbots from giving sermons at public religious ceremonies and,
7)been forcing people to make donations, in order to defeat the monks' boycott.
The government must stop committing the above crimes and instead;
a) take the responsibility for their economic faliures, the poverty of the country and the public's suffering in the current humanitarian crisis created by them,
b)immediately release without condition all the detained monks, including U Gambira, students and youths, ethnic leaders, Daw Aung San Suu Kyi and all other political prisoners
c) start to solve the country's problems, issues and crises through discussion, negotiation and meetings, in a civilised way.
We demand the government known as the State Peace and Development Council (SPDC), take immediate action to react to all the issues listed above.
To civilians and donors we would appeal to you not to be disappointed or give up too easily from this long-term struggle. Control your anger and hatred, avoid any violent behaviour and try to love each other. This way, we will be able to create and build our own future and fate peacefully and in solidarity.
To the monks we urge you to continue with our unfinished boycott and increase your activity while bearing in mind the development of the country and religion. Be united, be active and be vigilant.
For the benefit of both secular and sacred worlds we issued this announcement.

'Do It Yourself' Without Violence, ABMA Urges People Of Burma
1 January 2008
Original report by Aye Nai, DVB
'We must be responsible for our own fate, while avoiding all violence', the All Burma Monks Alliance (ABMA) urged the people of Burma. In their announcement, issued today, the monks are also urged to continue with the boycott and also to be active and vigilant.
U Okkatta, the spokesperson of the Alliance, also beseeched everyone to join in the activities led by the ABMA in order to end the country's humanitarian sufferings.
'Please do not feel distressed. You must control your anger which can lead the tendency towards violence but let us concentrate on building our own future, in solidarity. With our joint forces of the public and monks together, we can resolve all our problems and troubles. We vow to continue with the boycott until every monk (and political prisoner) is released. Please try not to hate anyone and believe in love and affection, which is the only true winner.'
