Bay Dah's Statement in English and Burmese
During the period of Pre World War II in Burma, the Indian Chettiars are the main Money lenders to the poor Burmese Farmers and they benefited a lot from tricking the uneducated Burmese farmers by asking them to sign(make a cross) on the piece of Paper before they borrowed the money.
Actually since the farmers are uneducated and they cannot read what were written inside that piece of paper and out of ignorant and naively, they just put a signature(which is actually just put a "X" on the paper since they are uneducated they didn't know how to sign their name) on that paper. Later when the time was up the Chettiers used this piece of paper and told the poor farmer that he agreed this and that while you borrowed money now since you cannot payback the money as per agreement we will take your land, your house and your daughter in return.
By these way Many Burmese farmers were cheated and loose their land, their home and worst of all their daughters become mistress of that Chettiars because of that piece of paper that they signed Blindly on that paper without knowing what was written on that.
Now Than Shwe and his followers are trying to do the
same TRICK on the Burmese People.
They didn't explain to the whole country what is inside this "so called" draft constitution. They DON"T distributed the booklet of Draft constitution sufficiently(eg. only one book at the Burmese embassy in UK and 8 books at the Burmese embassy in Singapore and people have to put their passport or ID as a deposit at the embassy to read the draft constitution within the embassy compound) and they still ordered the people to vote for the referendum for that unexplained draft constitution.
Later they will use this vote count and will cheat the Burmese people and the whole world to retain their power.(Did all of you ever heard in the world history that people have to vote for the draft referendum which was never explain to the public that what was written inside..what a joke!!!)
Since we even don't know what is written inside, we will NEVER vote "yes" (actually we don't even need to read what is inside because we all know it is all about for them to retain their power) All Burmese PLEASE BEWARE of this TRICK!! Don't let Chettier Than Shwe and his Followers cheat you. If all of you get cheated then you and your whole Burma will lost the freedom, Human rights and Democracy forever.
Only action that will save your future is Vote "NO" ခ်စ္တီး လို ကၽင္႔ တဲ႕ သန္းေရြွ နွင့္ ေနာက္လိုက္ မ်ား

On the 26 April, self aware Burmese Patriotic people were eagerly waiting in front of Burmese embassy at St. Martin Road off Orchard Road. Their face showed their determination of to do the right things for the country.Some whispering, some shouting to show their dissatisfaction of the way Burmese Embassy Staffs working slowly for the voting Process.
The Only reply they got from the Burmese embassy staff was "because they were not on the list"!!! which was the only answer the embassy staff repeated and repeated again for all the questions and equiry(What a Bullshit !! the law already mentioned if you are 18 and above and prove of you are Burmese citizen you can vote and they are still mentioned no name on the list, What list,, we don't need that list..we already proved we are Burmese citizen!!! ..baydah)
