we get what we deserve

. . . it is very hard to understand why Daw Aung San Suu Kyi who has taken an unconstitutional post called "state counsellor" and the minister of the two ministries including MOFA, and put herself in the state protocol between the president and the two vice-presidents has chosen NOT to go to the UNGA. In my understanding, she is the only government official who should lead the delegation to the UN to make use of the UN podium as a tool to amplify the voice of Myanmar in order to defend and counter-attack the "POST-TRUTH" putting pressure on Myanmar's sovereignty. She still possesses indispensable personality although her charisma has been sharply declining internationally since her incumbency. The defacto government head of Myanmar was once the great hope of her supporters for the bright future of the nation, and even non-supporters had a reluctant expectation on her capacity. Unfortunately, we get what we deserve. We have got a weak government which has very few capability for the development of the nation in almost every aspect. She was so courageous enough to withstand the oppression of the military regime but she is too coward to preserve dignity of the nation in international arena.
.
however, it is not a hopeless situation. There is also the bright side of the current polity. Some advantages could be taken. First, the NLD could learn an important lesson that taking the driver seat of the government is not as unaccountable and unresponsible as insulting and gossiping the incumbent government as an opposition. Second, the NLD supporters and some anti-military-regime-people could come to understand the difference between a charismatic politician and a smart statesman.
.
Otherwise, . . .
we will get what we still deserve.
