The outcast
Article Abstract:
There is increasing concern among the political opposition in Maymar about lack of progress from non-violent action. Five exiles from Myanmar seized the Myanmar embassy in Thailand, and were later freed by the Thai government in an area of Myanmar held by rebels, as a condition for freeing hostages. There are thousands of Myanmar dissidents in camps in Thailand near the border with Myanmar. There is sympathy in Thailand toward the refugees, and Myanmar is becoming isolated in the region, where even Indonesia's leader sympathizes with the Myanmar opposition.
