WAO's Acknowledgement to U Tin Oo

WAO-HQ-10/17/2011-On behalf of World Arakanese Organization, WAO-U.S.A. officially sent a thanks letter to U Tin Oo, Vice President of National League for Democracy, as the regarding of his talking about illegal Chittagongnian Bengali Muslims during an explanation of his life experience with Radio Free Asia (RFA) on October 3, 2011.

We, World Arakanese Organization, value his elucidation and his information is very important to us.
WAO’s acknowledgment letter has stated “We want to express that we are in good pleasure and satisfaction in heart for your shedding lights on the controversial problem of so-called “Rohingya Ethnicity” of the Arakan State in your talk on the broadcast of Radio Free Asia on October 3, 2011.  Your mention makes clear that these Bengali Muslims are illegal immigrants from Bangladesh (then East Pakistan). We Rakhine people are mostly aware of the powerfulness of truth and virtue.

As you have explained we want to declare once again that the Arakanese and their homeland, Arakan have never been a collective name of Arakanese, who call themselves Rakhine in their language and those Muslim immigrants, as some diplomatic missions of the western countries including the State Department of the United States are confused about all the difference.

You send a message to our people most highly recommended of your experience in the Arakan State in the chance of getting a general assent in principle to the sensitive problem the whole nation of Union of Myanmar has been facing for many decades. Doubtless you will be highly honored by our people in our history.”

This letter dated on October 6, 2011 was sent with signature of U Sein Tun, President of WAO-U.S.A. and Vice President of WAO, by WAO-U.S.A.

ARSA claims ambush on Myanmar security forces

Arakan Rohingya Salvation Army (ARSA) on Sunday claimed responsibility for an ambush on Myanmar security forces that left several wounded in northern Rakhine state, the first attack in weeks in a region gutted by violence. Rakhine was plunged into turmoil last August, when a series of ARSA raids prompted a military backlash so brutal the UN says it likely amounts to ethnic cleansing of the Muslim Rohingya minority. The army campaign sent some 650,000 Rohingya fleeing for Bangladesh, where refugees have given harrowing accounts of rape, murder and arson at the hands of security forces and vigilantes. Myanmar's military, which tightly controls information about Rakhine, denies any abuses and insists the crackdown was a proportionate response to crush the "terrorist" threat. ARSA have launched few attacks in recent months.  But the army reported that "about ten" Rohingya terrorists ambushed a car with hand-made mines and gunfire on Friday morning

Thai penis whitening trend raises eyebrows

Image copyright LELUXHOSPITAL Image caption Authorities warn the procedure could be quite painful A supposed trend of penis whitening has captivated Thailand in recent days and left it asking if the country's beauty industry is taking things too far. Skin whitening is nothing new in many Asian countries, where darker skin is often associated with outdoor labour, therefore, being poorer. But even so, when a clip of a clinic's latest intriguing procedure was posted online, it quickly went viral. Thailand's health ministry has since issued a warning over the procedure. The BBC Thai service spoke to one patient who had undergone the treatment, who told them: "I wanted to feel more confident in my swimming briefs". The 30-year-old said his first session of several was two months ago, and he had since seen a definite change in the shade. 'What for?' The original Facebook post from the clinic offering the treatment, which uses lasers to break do
