Circling Back to Issues in Laos and Nearby Regions Forced to the Forefront by Necessity While Other Global Defense Developments are Attention Grabbers

Posted by HCN on Wednesday, February 6, 2019

Written and published February 5, 2019

For now, before a long drawn out sermon on why making sharp and sharper looks into unexploded ordinance in Laos right through here, might be a wise move, given that the frequency of injuries is receiving global media attention at lightning speeds, the USA's position on world peace today might be presented a little differently than roughly a half century ago, and of course, consistency across the board an ideal- this will briefly, very briefly hit on the subject, that concerns over the status of what is going on in the region that surrounds and includes modern day Laos is stark and logical to have. 

Social media tools like live-streaming, translation while live-streaming, and cameras abound, are affecting the dynamics of how information is circulating, even in less industrialized areas.

The USA emerging from a government shutdown within recent weeks, is not the only nation that suffers from the woeful repercussions of narcotic production.  Narcotics that emanate from the Laos and Myanmar region is a key subject.  The flower itself, in opium, as we all know is a but a flower.  It is the abusive manipulation of the flower that is the beginning of sin.  Becoming increasingly well known, is that regions around Afghanistan, and south of the Mexico border, are not the only locations where there are flowers and plants that drugs are derived from.

On an, as a matter of fact basis, a number of news and narcotic analyst reports are surfacing that opium fields in Myanmar are a major source of what eventually turns into drugs showing up in the streets of Australia and China, to name a few.

How does this relate to government shutdown in the USA?, some of it has to do with tying together narcotic trafficking through borders besides the one near Texas and Mexico, as obvious and reiterated, South American countries known as big exporters of narcotics are not the only ones growing the source crop, and that other locations besides these are converting the crop into the dangerous lure and then lethal commodity.  It is well within the realm of possibility, that drugs could be attempted to be brought in to the US through locations other than the hackneyed Texas-Mexico where proposals for borderwalls would stand.  The main matter is immigration, perhaps a rebut, then ask, why the pressure is so high to immigrate, to escape, somewhere in some of the answers is domination that has involvemnt in drugs.

This is no fairy tale, to clog up the Internet with key words the get query results, upon any doubt, in respectful tone, simply check the number of narcotic gang related deaths in numerous countries from Central America and work southward, and check recent United Nations reports on global narcotic distribution.

The whole circle.

Going back in time to the Nixon years, news reports have it that explosives were used, in Laos.  Videos of very recent incidents are going viral enough to be described as popular, such as of a three year old boy who had unexploded ordinance affect him to where he is now for intents and purposes blind.

At the same time, there are news reports of aggressive and hostile groups, that can be escalated to blandly being designated 'possible terrorist groups' that exist over in the South East Asia region.  Trafficking of the narcotics keeps up, coming out the region.  Child armies keeps going.  The general attitude of making money is more important than the hurt upon those less powerful through drugs, is a regular climate in some social circles, today, there in that very same region that was next door to Vietnam, to which the War decades back takes it name.

Nevertheless, referent videos, whether true, untrue, or partially true, are perceivable as putting bad lights on the US.

It is not necessary to digress into all the vagaries of all the potential crime that comes in to the US through the Canadian border, in this writing, especially considering all that Canada has to contend with to keep criminality out.  And there are other ways, and more ways, that criminally savvy individuals are continually advancing methods to sneak drugs around.

Meanwhile, among stories that just cropped up, alongside the bitterness of drug related activities of Laos and Myanmar, translated from Vietnamese:

"Russia developed a new missile system to deal with the US in 2021

February 5, 2019

Russia said it would race to develop two ground missile systems before 2021 to deal with the US withdrawal from the Mid-Range Nuclear Forces Treaty.

According to Reuters , President Vladimir Putin suspended the Treaty of Mid-Range Nuclear Forces (INF) signed with the US during the Cold War, which banned two nations from deploying surface-to-air missiles. Short and medium range in Europe.

Moscow and Washington accused each other of violating the treaty and Putin said Russia had decided to act after the US withdrew.

Washington makes it clear that it plans to begin the process of research, development and design of new missile systems and that Moscow will do the same, the Russian president said.

The Russian army will begin to develop ground-based launch systems for the payroll ship of Kalibr, the cruise ship with the long-range supersonic missiles with the lowest travel speed. 5 times the speed of sound.

Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu on February 5 instructed the military to develop new systems. Mr. Shoigu said he wanted the system to be finalized next year to be ready for combat in 2021.

That is a roundup for 'hot' news in the press that has to do with global tension.  Of course our own backyard, pertinently, making certain there is no violent crime in the DC area, is a standard must.

Update August 1, 2022
According to https://www.irrawaddy.com/news/burma/myanmar-junta-extends-state-of-emergency.html, Hliang set before the body a proposal of allowing him to serve 6 more months, whereat word has arrived in the press that a 'State of Emergency' has been extended 6 more months. HCN comment, it may be clear that a 'State of Emergency' in their meaning might not be exactly the same as it is in the US. Perhaps English descriptive term State of Emergency in the context of the Burma/Myanmar crisis is a translation of something.

Update April 21, 2022
Reports of riot at detention center in what appears to be Kedah State, Malaysia with past several days; 6 fatalities in aftermath; those fleeing Myanmar, over 300 're-arrests'. Ramifications of power overturn is how wide?

Update August 4, 2021: US State Dept slated to talk with NUG
Update June 19, 2021: Looks like Rohingya taking the brunt, no matter which way the developments go- story here https://www.hcrestnews.com/intercontinental-news/denialed-undeniable-rohingya-have-been-facing-brunt-of-oppression-no-matter-what-the-turn-of-events. Village burned to the ground, Kin Ma, June 17th, 2021, elderly dead in the process- elderly victims, plus corpses coming back without organs, equals what, not a tone that says perpetrators deep, perhaps just simply evil. May 26, 2021: An American journalist is detained; officials have died in custody. Pictures of armed soldiers in camouflage have been released, wearing white face masks (presumably due to COVID-19).. not to be disrespectful in asking, but why undermine the entire camouflage with white mask?, is a question that presents, when assessing the situation
Update May 10, 2021: Thermal/pyro methodologies of opposition suppression being used extensively. See PDF translated page of BBC article citing those activities at Attacks in Burma-Myanmar (italic click link) [copyright waiver request- time of essence]. Satellite usage is being suppressed in the region as well, so there is a strong chance that not every event is being recorded and broadcast for the world to quickly access and view through media.
Update Sunday May 9, 2021: NUG poised to set up a people's defense force; 8 protestors reported killed when fired on by security forces on Sunday May 2, 2021 thereabout, in Kyaukme, Shan State. Those events post April ASEAN meeting [..arriving classic off the airplane on red carpet, clasped hands, modern day dress suit considered Western; 3 finger wave, about as ancient... Debate on who is welcoming who.]
Static pro tem statement: There is an emergency situation in Myanmar... content deleted 4/15..Details still becoming clear.. still no signs that the current situation is not at genocide level (Original headline Saturday April 10, 2021)
