ミャンマーに15億円不正送金、銀行法違反容疑で5人逮捕
ミャンマー人から預かった現金を本国に不正送金していたとして、警視庁組織犯罪対策1課が、東京・高田馬場の雑貨店経営者らミャンマー人5人を銀行法違反(無免許営業)の疑いで逮捕していたことがわかった。
4年間で、延べ5000人が約15億円を送金していたとみられる。軍事政権下の同国では、海外からの送金は事実上、政府公認の法人しかできないため、同課は、迫害を逃れて来日した難民を中心に、同国人の多くが利用していたとみて実態解明を進めている。

Secrecy shrouds trading in the gems, which enriches the Asian nation's ruling junta.

The rich red hue of Myanmar's prized rubies is a reminder to many gem dealers of the military government's bloody crackdown on democracy advocates, and talk of a boycott is increasing.
International trade union and human rights organisations say international community must seize the opportunity now!
Paris, 10 December 2007: The ITUC and the FIDH today released a new report on Burma entitled: “Burma’s “Saffron Revolution” is not over”. Based on the findings of a joint international mission to the Thai-Burma border and interviews with participants in last October’s protest movement and victims of its repression by the military, the 50-page report includes detailed policy proposals and recommendations to the international community. It comes on the eve of two key events scheduled next week. On Monday, 10 December, which is also International Human Rights Day, EU Foreign Ministers meeting in Brussels are expected to assess the situation after a number of high-profile United Nations visits to Burma. The next day, the same topic will be discussed by the UN Human Rights Council, meeting in Geneva.
As indicated by the report’s sub-title, the ITUC and FIDH believe this is the “Time for the international community to act”. The underlying analysis is that the violent repression, particularly the targeting by the military of peacefully-demonstrating monks, has deeply antagonised Burma’s society, at the same time as it has created new resistance dynamics which are unlikely to fade away. “Desire for change seems to be greater than ever”, the report says. Noting that “no real signs of de-escalation of repression and commitment to a peaceful transition have been given by the ruling junta since the crackdown”, the world’s largest global trade union organisation and the oldest international human rights organisation with a universal mandate argue that the recent events make a strong case for urgent and increased international pressure. They say this view reflects positions defended both by victims and by organisations representing Burma’s democracy movement, based inside and outside the country. In addition to meeting with victims and witnesses, the mission held meetings with 15 different organisations as well as with the diplomatic community.
The joint report details four key principles for action and suggests the international community should focus on four main leverage points. The principles stress that Burma should be kept as a top priority on the international agenda; that increasing pressure on the junta now will be useful, not harmful to the reconciliation and democracy process; that the international community should accept “taking responsibility for Burma” rather than sticking to its “wait-and-see” attitude; and that it should implement a two-pronged approach of influencing the regime and encouraging the people by sending clear messages of international support. The leverage points cover detailed recommendations aimed both at raising international pressure on the military junta and supporting national reconciliation; cutting the junta’s economic lifeline through comprehensive sanctions including, in particular, the priority sectors of oil and gas, timber, gems and financial - including banking – services, with due consideration, where justified, for exceptions on humanitarian or similar grounds; establishing a “Burma Transition Fund” that would be available after a return to democracy and, finally, supporting a peaceful transition to democracy by concrete initiatives aiming at promoting a culture of democracy within Burma, also directed at the army, the professionalizing of which should be accepted both by officers and soldiers themselves, as well as by the
First lady criticizes Myanmar's generals
WASHINGTON - Laura Bush on Monday used International Human Rights Day to call on Myanmar's military-run government to step aside if it cannot help bring about a democratic transition in the Southeast Asian nation.
The first lady held a video teleconference connecting the White House with officials at two locations in Thailand, which borders Myanmar, also known as Burma. Mrs. Bush spoke with Dr. Cynthia Maung, the founder of a medical clinic on the border of Thailand and Myanmar, and Ralph Boyce, the U.S. ambassador in Bangkok.
She said the people of Burma "are denied nearly every right" enshrined in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights adopted by the U.N. General Assembly in 1948.
"For nearly 20 years, Burma's military regime has crushed peaceful dissent and jailed thousands of political prisoners," Mrs. Bush said.
"President Bush and I call on all nations, especially Burma's neighbors, to use their influence to help bring about a democratic transition."
She said the junta leader, Senior Gen. Than Shwe, "has offered only token gestures of reconciliation."
"If he and the generals are serious, they should give (pro-democracy leader) Aung San Suu Kyi unlimited access to the diplomatic and other members of the Burmese opposition," Mrs. Bush said. "She and other political leaders should be released immediately and unconditionally so they can plan strategy for Burma's peaceful transition to democracy. Members of the junta have promised to engage in serious dialogue with democratic representatives of the Burmese people. If Than Shwe and the generals cannot meet these very basic requirements, then it's time for them to move aside and make a clear path for a free and democratic Burma."
On Friday, Paulo Sergio Pinheiro, the U.N. human rights expert assigned to the country, said Myanmar's crackdown on pro-democracy protesters in September
North Korean Ambassador to Burma Takes Up Post After 24-Year Diplomatic Break
By VOA News
08 December 2007
Burmese state media say North Korea's first ambassador to Burma has taken up his post after a diplomatic break of 24 years between the two countries.
Burma's New Light of Myanmar says ties were restored Friday when North Korean Ambassador Kim Sok Chol presented his credentials to Senior General Than Shwe in the administrative capital, Naypyidaw.
The two countries severed ties in 1983 after North Korean agents carried out a bombing in Rangoon that killed more than 20 people during a visit by South Korean President Chun Doo-hwan.
Burma and North Korea agreed to resume diplomatic relations in April during a visit by North Korean Deputy Foreign Minister Kim Yong Il.

WASHINGTON (AFP) — The US Senate approved on Wednesday sanctions against Myanmar's multi-million dollar gemstone industry to punish the military regime over its deadly crackdown on pro-democracy protests.
The Burma Democracy Promotion Act outlaws the import of gems and timber from Myanmar and imposes fresh financial sanctions and travel restrictions on the junta's leaders and their associates.
The legislation also creates a position of special representative and policy coordinator for Myanmar who would work with the Southeast Asian nation's neighbors and the European Union to press for change in the country.
"The message to the people of Burma today is clear: the United States stands with you as you seek a peaceful, negotiated transition to democratic civilian rule," said Senate Foreign Relations Committee Chairman Joseph Biden, referring to Myanmar by its old name.
"We will work tirelessly with the international community toward that objective," Biden, a Democratic presidential candidate, said in a statement.
The House of Representatives passed similar legislation last week, but it needs to vote on the Senate version because it was amended. The final bill would then go to US President George W. Bush for his signature.
Last week, Bush threatened to spearhead a global campaign to step up sanctions against Myanmar if it continues to ignore calls for a democratic transition.
At least 31 people were killed and 74 went missing in the suppression in September of peaceful protests led by Buddhist monks, according to a UN report.
Bush recently announced new sanctions against Myanmar's military, including an asset freeze on key junta figures and blacklisting of seven companies and five individuals allegedly linked to those companies and the regime.
The United States has long maintained a trade and investment ban on Myanmar.
The new special representative will work with Burma's neighbors and other countries to pressure Myanmar, promote dialogue and support humanitarian groups aiding the people there, Biden's statement said.
"Our ultimate objective is to re-integrate Burma into the community of nations. Sanctions without concerted diplomacy are pointless," said Biden.
"It is time for Burma to begin a new day in which all of the people, including Burma's many minority groups, work together to rebuild what nearly 20 years of disastrous military rule have destroyed."
US First Lady Laura Bush, an active campaigner for rights in Myanmar, on Tuesday charged that the junta had not enacted even "minimal" democratic reforms.
On December 11, the president had warned that failure to release democracy icon Aung San Suu Kyi and other detainees could trigger a US-led effort to tighten international sanctions on Myanmar's military regime.
The UN envoy for Myanmar, Ibrahim Gambari, met on Monday with US National Security Adviser Stephen Hadley to discuss Myanmar.
