KUDETA JUNTA MILITER MYANMAR TERHADAP AUNG SAN SUU KYI 2021
No full textThis paper aims to find out and analyze how the coup carried out by the Myanmar military junta against Aung San Suu Kyi. This research began on November 8, 2022, the Government of Myanmar held a presidential election. The election was won by Aung San Suu Kyi through the National League Democracy (NLD) party. The election was won by Aung San Suu Kyi through the National League Democracy (NLD) party. The opposition through the Union Solidarity and Development did not recognize the election results. They claim that Aung San Suu Kyi's victory in Myanmar's election was carried out by fraud. This made the opposition party reject and the military junta supported the decision. Through the Myanmar military junta, Aung San Suu Kyi was arrested and the election was deemed invalid. The coup by the military junta against Aung San Suu Kyi was carried out so that Myanmar was declared a state of emergency after the military coup led by the military junta in Myanmar. Based on this the author tries to analyze how the military junta carried out a coup against Aung San Suu Kyi
Theoretical and Textual Approaches to Contemporary Humanitarian Narrative: The Cases of Roberto Saviano’s Gomorra, Aung San Suu Kyi’s Letters from Burma, Jerry Piasecki’s Marie in the Shadow of the Lion and Nadine Gordimer’s The Ultimate Safari
No full textThe purpose of this thesis is to describe how some forms of fictional and non-fictional texts can be configured as and within the framework of humanitarian practices. In exploring the definitions and features of humanitarianism and humanitarian literature, the thesis attempts to answer the question of what purpose these texts try to serve. In examining the works Marie in the Shadow of the Lion (2000) by Jerry Piasecki, The Ultimate Safari (1989) by Nadine Gordimer, Gomorra (2006) by Roberto Saviano and Letters from Burma (1996) by Aung San Suu Kyi, we will argue that the scope of these books can be located by analogy to social and political humanitarian practices. Beyond their differences in genre, style and subject matter, these texts share a common feature: they are performative, namely they strive to do things with words. The humanitarian texts discussed in this thesis can be shown to act in the world in order to implement the values proclaimed in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights

PERANAN AUNG SAN SUU KYI DALAM MEMPERJUANGKAN DEMOKRASI DI MYANMAR TAHUN 1988-2012
No full textSkripsi ini berjudul “Peranan Aung San Suu Kyi dalam Memperjuangkan Demokrasi di Myanmar tahun 1988-2012”. Masalah utama yang diangkat dalam skripsi ini adalah “Bagaimana Proses Gerakan Aung San Suu Kyi dalam Memperjuangkan Demokrasi di Myanmar tahun 1988-2012?”. Masalah tersebut kemudian dibagi menjadi empat pertanyaan penelitian, yaitu: (1) Bagaimana kondisi sosial dan politik di Myanmar pada masa pemerintahan junta militer? (2) Bagaimana upaya Aung San Suu Kyi melakukan gerakan demokrasi di Myanmar? (3) Mengapa pemerintahan junta militer melarang gerakan demokrasi yang dilakukan Aung San Suu Kyi? (4) Bagaimana dampak dari gerakan demokrasi yang dilakukan Aung San Suu Kyi terhadap kehidupan sosial dan politik Myanmar? Untuk mengungkap permasalahan tersebut, peneliti menggunakan metode historis dengan empat langkah penelitian, yaitu heuristik, kritik, interpretasi, dan historiografi, serta menggunakan pendekatan interdisipliner dengan menggunakan konsep dari ilmu politik dan konsep ilmu sosiologi. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian ini, dapat dijelaskan bahwa pemerintah junta militer yang diberlakukan di Myanmar tidak mampu memberikan kemajuan dalam bidang ekonomi, sehingga rakyat melakukan gerakan menuntut turunnya pemerintah junta militer. Rakyat Myanmar berusaha melakukan gerakan perubahan di bawah pengaruh Aung San Suu Kyi yang memainkan peranannya untuk melakukan gerakan demokrasi tanpa menggunakan kekerasan. Pemerintah menentang gerakan demokrasi Aung San Suu Kyi hingga memenjarakannya dengan maksud menghentikan gerakan demokrasi yang dilakukannya. Akibat peristiwa ini, Myanmar dicap sebagai negara paling represif dan melakukan pelanggaran HAM terbanyak di Asia. Hal itu menjadikan Myanmar dikucilkan dari dunia internasional dan menerima banyak sanksi ekonomi. Upaya pemerintah memenjarakan Suu Kyi tidak mempengaruhinya untuk menghentikan semangat revolusinya. Sampai pada akhirnya pemerintah memutuskan membebaskan Aung San Suu Kyi dan keadaan Myanmar menjadi lebih demokratis setelah ia menjadi anggota parlemen. Peneliti berharap bahwa h asil penelitian ini dapat menambah sumber literatur dan khazanah kepustakaan mengenai Aung San Suu Kyi dan negara Myanmar bagi yang membacanya.
The title of this study is “The Role of Aung San Suu Kyi in struggling for democracy in Myanmar since 1988-2012. The main subject about this study is how Aung San Suu Kyi’s movement process in struggling for democracy in Myanmar since 1988-2012. Those main problem is consist of four research question, (1) How is Myanmar’s social and politic condition when Junta Military Government held? (2) What did Aung San Suu Kyi do to struggle her democracy movement? (3) Why the junta military government banned her democracy movement (4) How the effect of Aung San Suu Kyi’s democracy movement for social and politic situation in Myanmar?. To solve the problems in this study, the writer is using the four part historical method, which are is heuristic, critic, interpretation, and historiography and also using inter disciplinary approach by using politic and sociology concept. Based of this research result, the writer can explain that the junta military government couldn’t give a progress for economy in Myanmar, so that the people started to demand for regime to fall. The people of Myanmar try to make a movement under Aung San Suu Kyi, whose the one that struggle her movement without violence. The government opposed Aung San Suu Kyi’s movement until house arrested her in purpose to stop her democracy struggle. For this incident Myanmar was labeled as a repressive state and the most human right abuse country in Asia. Furthermore, Myanmar also being isolated from international and received a lot of international economic sanctions. The government’s tactic house arrested her didn’t stop her revolution spirit. The government finally decide to release her and Myanmar situation became more democratic after she attend the parliament. The writer hope that this research can give a contributing for literature sources and knowledge/treasure of literature (wtf) about Aung San Suu Kyi and the state of Myanmar for the readers
A Burkean analysis of Aung San Suu Kyi\u27s leadership role in the political development of Burma
No full textThe focus of this thesis is the historical and analytical role, influence and effect of Aung San, U Nu, and Ne Win in the struggle of independent post-war Burma between the philosophy of Buddhism and the aims of a Socialist welfare-state and its effect on Aung San Suu Kyi\u27s struggle for democracy in present day Burma. There has not been any rhetorical analysis of Aung San Suu Kyi as of yet. Chapter 1 covers the political history of Burma in detail; it will cover the monarchy period, the British colonization, and the struggle for independence. Chapter 2 will concentrate on the cultural developments of India and Burma under colonial rule and Chapter 3 covers the historic role of Buddhism, as a religion, social structure, and resistance to secularism.
Chapter 4 consists of the analysis of Aung San\u27s political ideologies and the examination of the influences he had during the struggle for independence, the present effects, and the foundations for the next era. Chapter 5 analyzes U Nu and Ne Win\u27s role, religious influence and outcome of their leadership role in the political development of the nation. Chapter 6 will cover of Aung San Suu Kyi\u27s political ideologies and her ability to lead the nation to their second independence
Extensive genomic characterization of a set of near-isogenic lines for heterotic QTL in maize (Zea mays L.)
No full textBackground
Despite the crucial role that heterosis has played in crop improvement, its genetic and molecular bases are still elusive. Several types of structured populations were used to discover the genetic architecture underlying complex phenotypes, and several QTL related to heterosis were detected. However, such analyses generally lacked the statistical power required for the detailed characterization of individual QTL. Currently, QTL introgression into near-isogenic materials is considered the most effective strategy to this end, despite such materials inevitably contain a variable, unknown and undesired proportion of non-isogenic genome. An introgression program based on residual heterozygous lines allowed us to develop five pairs of maize (Zea mays L.) near-isogenic lines (NILs) suitable for the fine characterization of three major heterotic QTL previously detected. Here we describe the results of the detailed genomic characterization of these NILs that we undertook to establish their genotypic structure, to verify the presence of the expected genotypes within target QTL regions, and to determine the extent and location of residual non-isogenic genomic regions.
Results
The SNP genotyping approach allowed us to determine the parent-of-origin allele for 14,937 polymorphic SNPs and to describe in detail the genotypic structure of all NILs. The correct introgression was confirmed for all target QTL in the respective NIL and several nonisogenic regions were detected genome-wide. Possible linkage drag effects associated to the specific introgressed regions were observed. The extent and position of other non-isogenic regions varied among NIL pairs, probably deriving from random segregating sections still present at the separation of lineages within pairs.
Conclusions
The results of this work strongly suggest that the actual isogenicity and the genotypic architecture of near-isogenic materials should be monitored both during the introgression procedure and on the final materials as a paramount requisite for a successful mendelization of target QTL. The information here gathered on the genotypic structure of NILs will be integrated in future experimental programs aimed at the fine mapping and isolation of major heterotic QTL, a crucial step towards the understanding of the molecular bases of heterosis in maize
General Aung San – the Father of Burma’s Independence
No full textThe author presents General Aung San (1915-1947) as a dedicated fighter for independence and through his complicated biography outlines the crucial period of Burma’s history: the end of the British colonial rule. The paper also presents the cultural differences that complicated Burmese-British relations.
It appears that Aung San’s nationalist spirit had been already shaped in his childhood. He became famous as a student leader during his education at Rangoon University in the 1930’s. In 1938 he had been elected the Secretary General of the most significant nationalist force: the Association We-Burmese (Do-Bama Asi-Ayone). On the one hand he was involved in lawful political activity, on the other he tried to acquire weapons by all possible means to start an armed struggle for independence. He created numerous political organizations of different political orientation (including the Communist Party of Burma). Eventually he arrived in Japan, where he received military training. In 1941, with the help of Japanese agents, he was able to create the Burma Independence Army in Thailand, which entered Burma together with the Japanese troops in 1942.
His co-operation with the Japanese forces was tortuous and painful, but he served as the Minister of War in their puppet Burmese Government. When it became obvious that the Allies will win, he established contacts with them and in August 1944 founded the Anti-Fascist Organisation. On March 27, 1945 he started an anti-Japanese uprising to help the British forces entering the country. At the end of the war his relations with the British authorities were very complex: the civil administration wanted to arrest him and bring him to justice as a war criminal, but the military commanders appreciated his help and wanted to collaborate with him and his Burmese forces. The second approach prevailed and in 1946 he headed the Burmese colonial government under the British Governor. In January 1947 he successfully negotiated Burma’s independence in London. The famous Panglong Agreement reached with the leaders of national minorities in February constituted another success of his. In April his party won the majority in the elections to the Constitutional Assembly and Aung San started his work on the constitution. In July, during feverish preparations for independence, he was assassinated together with six other members of the government. U Nu, his old friend and political successor completed his task of building up the independent state. The present military junta constitutes the first Burmese government, which does not respect General Aung San much owing to the prodemocratic activities of Aung San Suu Kyi, his daughter
MMLI: Multimodal Multiperson Corpus of Laughter in Interaction
No full textThe aim of the Multimodal and Multiperson Corpus of Laughter in Interaction (MMLI) was to collect multimodal data of laughter with the focus on full body movements and different laughter types. It contains both induced and interactive laughs from human triads. In total we collected 500 laugh episodes of 16 participants. The data consists of 3D body position information, facial tracking, multiple audio and video channels as well as physiological data. In this paper we discuss methodological and technical issues related to this data collection including techniques for laughter elicitation and synchronization between different independent sources of data. We also present the enhanced visualization and segmentation tool used to segment captured data. Finally we present data annotation as well as preliminary results of the analysis of the nonverbal behavior patterns in laughter
A Political Biography of Aung San Suu Kyi
No full textThis book is the first political biography of Aung San Suu Kyi covering both her years in opposition and all her years in power from 2016 onwards. It offers a new interpretation of Aung San Suu Kyi by presenting a balanced and thorough account of Suu Kyi’s policies. In the last 30 years there has not been a person in global politics who has risen so high and fallen so low – and so quickly – as Aung San Suu Kyi. Using postcolonial theory and introducing the new concept of `a hybrid politician', this book explains apparent inconsistencies of Suu Kyi’s agenda. It demonstrates that Suu Kyi considers herself a democrat and yet, rules autocratically. Immersed in her country’s tradition of policymaking, she has at the same time been influenced by foreign concepts, both Western and Asian. Drawing on first-hand research, including talks with Suu Kyi, conversations with her supporters and rivals, observations of Suu Kyi’s behaviour during intergovernmental talks as well as an extensive number of sources and fieldwork in Myanmar, the author argues that Suu Kyi’s case shows both the strengths and limits of hybridity. This brings Suu Kyi priceless political assets such as visibility, recognition and support while proving that such a model of leadership has its restrictions. A timely biography of the Nobel Peace Prize Laureate as she appears at the International Court of Justice to defend her country against charges of genocide committed against the Rohingya Muslim minority, this book will be of interest to students and researchers of Myanmar politics, Southeast Asian politics, Asian politics, Political Science more generally, Postcolonial Studies, Cultural Studies and Leadership Studies
