A JOURNALIST, A GENERAL AND AN ARMY IN BURMA

The author tells the chilling story of a people under military rule. As a Burmese journalist, the author worked under martial law and was jailed by the cunning and ruthless General Ne Win, Burma's dictator. This is the chronicle of the stupidity and crimes of the Burma Army and, from an insider's view point, the misery and cruelties endured by 43 million enslaved Burmese people.
