while accepting food aid (but not anyone to oversee distribution) myanmar continues to export rice (an industry controlled by the junta).

on the other hand, it's hard to dislike a military with such jaunty hats.

i'm torn.

they really are great hats.

if i were burmese, i'd be very tempted to join the military if i could wear one of those.

assuming i wasn't starving and all.

Reports are saying the military leaders are keeping all the good food that is coming in, for themselves, and rationing out the food that is barely fit for consumption to the people that actually need it.
