Brothers and Sisters of Burma, Thitsaphout Than Shwe’s crime are numerous, he has murdered people especially those who get in his way, his had people tortured, and committed children to slavery making bricks, then he sells the bricks at a profit and the children who survive this clearly illegal breech of human rights get nothing, and if they happen to die whilst in slavery their bodies are just thrown away like a piece of rubbish. The lives of the Burmese people mean nothing to this traitor Than Shwe. Thitsaphout Than Shwe is also involved in drug manufacturing and selling in the Shan state, oh yes he makes pretense at putting these drug manufacturing people out of business, that’s just show for the world so he has cameras filming destruction of drug crops, it all a lie then he sells them any were in Asia including China.
