Burma message from Edith Mirante and Scott Bateman on salon.com
http://www.salon.com/ent/video_dog/politics/2008/05/22/bateman_burmarap/index.html
Edith Mirante drew attention to Burmese human rights abuses in the early 90s, before anyone else did, distributing xerox copies of reports, some of which she wrote herself, with her mother as her only helper.
Bravo Edith, you give us Strength.

Apparently, this is not the same U Kovida who fled Burma after being one of the leaders of the Saffron Revolution.
It's a good blog, I hope he writes more.

Get a fake wallet or money clip,keep a few dollars in it, throw in direction of muggers and flee in other direction.
I knew this, from police instructor, in Philadelphia, but have not thought about it lately.
They also told me, if raped, don't fight. Remember things about the rapist. Don't wash afterwards. Call 911 when rapist gone.
Walk with hand in pocket and with confidence.
Cross street if see gang approaching. Be aware of surroundings.
Walk in well lighted areas.
Don't take short cuts.
