Burma Rising

Could it be the death of the North Korean monster that is propelling Burmese spring:

The influence of these North Korean projects and personnel should not be underestimated. That is how the true godfather of North Korea, the KGB, controlled places like Egypt in Nasser’s time. Kim’s death may well have had more of an impact on events outside North Korea than we realize.

As it stands, the direction of political changes in Burma appear to be positive. All we can do now is keep our fingers crossed.
