Description
Personne ne sait ce qu´il peut arriver en Birmanie les prochaîns jours. Le meuilleur, le pire, rien... Mais quoi qu´il arrive, quand vous entendez le mot Birmanie ( Myanmar est une invention de la Junte militaire) ne l´associez pas seulement à une des pires dictadures de la Terre, travaux forcés, répression. Tout cela est vrai, je le dénonce depuis 1988, à mes risques et périls.
Mais sachiez aussi que c´est le plus beaux pays du monde, pour moi, que j´en ai vu pas mal, ce que j´aime le plus et le peuple le plus formidable que j´ai jamais rencontré. Malgré la répression et les risques, ils n´hésitent pas à venir à la recontre de l´étranger et l´accueiller avec toute la chaleur humaine.
J´y étais neuf fois en Birmanie depuis 1995 - avec les difficultés que vous imaginez - et je ne me lasse jamais. Il y a toujours des merveilles à découvrir.
Je n´allais pas mettre mes photos de la Birmanie ici pour le moment ( attention, vous risquez d´en prendre pour sept ans : -)). Mais l´actualité a été plus forte. Ce que j´espère, avec ces photos c´est que vous que, comme la majorité des gens ne connaissent la Birmanie que des mauvaisses nouvelles, sachent que derrière il y a un pays et un peuple fantastiques.
Une chose que j´ai apprise : toutes les dictatures finissent, tôt ou tard. N´oubliez pas que Birmanie n´est pas seulement le nom d´une tragédie. Mais d´un pays, un peuple, qui seront libres un jour.
I TRY IN ENGLISH...
Nobody knows what can arrive in Burma the next days. The best, the worst, nothing… But what arrives, when you hear the word Burma (Myanmar is an invention of the military Junta) don’t associated only with one of worst dictatorships of the world, forced work, repression. All that is true, I denounce it since 1988, at my risks and dangers.
You need know it´s the most beautiful country of the world, for me, who see a reasonable number, which I love more and the most formidable people I ever met. In spite of repression and the risks, they do not hesitate to come to meet foreigner people and received all with a open heart. .
I stay nine times in Burma since 1995 - with the difficulties you can imagine - and I never tired. There are always wonders to discover.
I don’t think put my photos of Burma here now (attention, you risk take this for seven years: -)). But the actuality was stronger. I hope, with these photos , you all, like the majority of people who see Burma only in news, knows that behind there are a country and fantastic people.
A thing I learned: all the dictatorships finish, early or late. Don’t forgot, Burma it´s not only the name of a tragedy. But a wonderful country, fantastic people, which will be free one day.

A wonderful capture of a Buddhist monument in a very religious country. May Lord Buddha's teaching lead the Burmese people to freedom and democracy.

I feel great shame what we, as the human race, do to each other. It does not seem to be getting any better around the world, it seems to be getting worse. I hold you in my thoughts and prayers, and others like you who go into danger to bring out the truth. Thank you. And thank you for taking us to places like this, a place that I would never have seen otherwise. Seeing it through your eyes, through your words, makes it more real then seeing it on tv.

In the middle 70's some of my colleagues at Douglas Aircraft built a Burma Scenario to test materials handling strategies for an Advanced Medium STOL Transport (AMST). From that work I could see the disaster of the Denver Airport Baggage Handling System managed by Pena before he became Transportation Secretary. I made a joke out of sitting in the middle of a taxi rear seat as "going over the hump with Vinegar Joe." Rangoon, it rains a lot there, doesn't it? It isn't like Kuala Lampur or Ankor What. Pol Pot was already busy in the Killing Fields and the Plain of Jars. I emerged talking to a loadmaster on a C-130 who was pumping down the ramp by hand in 1998. We don't like the C-17 he was saying it suffers from Foreign Object Damage (FOD) we're looking for the C-130J. As I first mentioned I was not a part of that Materials Handling Study. My attention was on the Persian Gulf. Burma was the hot one. This is the first look from the ground I've ever had. My view is more from C-47's and C-46's in old WW-II aerial images of the way to China.

D'accord, les dictatures s'écroulent un jour ou l'autre (comme tous les régimes, comme toutes les civilisations, à l'échelle de l'Histoire) et c'est rassurant. Belle image de paix...

Como ya sabes soy un fan de los pueblos asiaticos en general. Me solidarizo con todo lo que mencionas. La fotografia tiene mucha fuerza por su sencillez. LLevo varios minutos viendola.
