say he had come to the conclusion that the government was right.
since the original groups of insurgents were not accomplishing
anything with their demands for statehood.
The Shwemam. Sayadaw said he was about to set to work and
that on a (B val holy day) in the month of Tabaung he would
deliver a sermon which would deal with [XM] the danger of communism
and how it seeks to thwart religion. He said he would also speak
on how the Revolutionary Government [3G] (B val misrules) the
people and how, once the people have been alerted, the government
will be destroyed.
The monk continued by saying that as it has been with the
monks who unhesitatingly banded together and put a stop to the
trouble over the four pagoda colonnades and the (B val number) 45
petrol station, the people likewise will be able to put an end
to their troubles. And today, as it has been with world leaders
✓
like NGO DINH DIEM and KENNEDY, Bogyoke NE WIN likewise will
tremble with fear.
