Burma Dialogue

The timing of this documentary couldn't be better as US report on Human Rights ( report on Burma ) has just been released and it echoes what the video demonstrates, that things are getting worse by the day.

The video, Inside the Secret State, takes us into the new capital of Naypidaw via hidden cameras. They offer some insight on the move into the jungle, most know some of the factors, such as distancing themselves from the Embassies in Rangoon, as well as astrological superstition, but also the location is desired to be linked to a upscale 'hotel-town'. In nearby Pyinmana it is believed the military is building an extensive network of underground bunkers.

They also interview journalist Ludu Sin Wein who says he believes the situation in Burma could implode at any moment.

The documentary speaks with a mother of three with HIV who is organizing an effort to promote awareness in her area. Though she is receiving treatment now, they say that program will expire in two years and it is unclear as of now if there will be any other options for treatment available.
