An Open Letter to Prime Minister of Royal Thai Government

To
H.E. Mr. Prayuth Chanocha
Prime Minister of Royal Thai Government
Date: October 11, 2014.

Arakan National Network is one of the Political Organizations in Myanmar. Our aim is to provide hopes for all the people of Myanmar who have food security, protection of their rights and prestige.

The reason for sending this Open Letter is related to double murders case to Mr. David Miller and Ms. Hannah Wtheridge who British citizens in Kho Tao, Surathtarni Province, South of Thailand on September 15. Related to this case, Zaw Lin and Win Zaw Htun, two Myanmar citizens were arrested as the suspects of the case.

We anticipate the case as follow:

There are different in the police investigation that the suspects use hoe to kill two victims, however, we have seen many wounds in Miller’s face and shoulders which is caused by push knife rather than a hoe, like wounded in Mr. Sean McAnna’s body who is a close friend of Mr. Miller. During the Police custody, Polices and unauthorized translator beaten to the two suspects and it lead to confession of the suspects to the case. There are also a lot of loopholes and weakness relate to DNA result of Ms. Hanna and these of the suspects.

Therefore, the Royal Thai Police need to review all DNA results of the suspects and the Victims. The location is the case is also notoriously influenced by local Mafia and there is no rule of law of many decades. We are sure that the people around the world have the same view on the case like ours.

Therefore, we, the members of Arakan National Network, demand to Royal Thai Government as the follow:

(1) To review of the case with transparent manner and justice in due process.


(2) To find real culprit of the case as soon as possible because the area is rules by local
Mafia and people, especially migrant workers, are living there under fear to them.

(3) To cooperate among UK Government, Myanmar Government and Thai Government more closely as the case is so complex.

As our two neighboring countries are common in religious, culture and historical background, we believe that Arakan National Network’s anticipation to the case and our demands will be fulfilled by Royal Thai Government as soon as possible.

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
