- To discuss the ongoingsituation in Myanmar,

I'm joined by my next guest, Dr. Sasa,

who is a well-knownphilanthropist, a doctor,

and a humanitarian.

Dr. Sasa, thank you so muchfor coming on the broadcast.

As I mentioned, you are awell-known person in Myanmar.

You've spent your life doingall kinds of humanitarian work

and helping those whoare vulnerable and needy.

But you have now justaccepted the position

as Myanmar's representativeto the United Nations.

So why did you decideto accept this position?

- Yeah, I have seen the suffering

of the people, my people, andthe atrocities and the pain

that was purposely imposed on the people

of Myanmar for so long and for so much.

So I believe that being in this positions,

I'll be able to help thepeople who are in need more

and ease the suffering andthe pain and also injustice,

and all these atrocities are continuing

in our country, unfortunately.

- Can you talk about what you see

as your main role in this new position

as Myanmar's representativeto the United Nations?

- I want to make sure thatinternational community are aware

that these military dictatorships,

that this military coup, isillegitimate, is illegal,

and on eight of November 2020, the people

of Myanmar have chosenthe other representative,

democratically electedmember of parliament

by the people for the people of Myanmar,

but it was overthrown inthe middle of the night

on the 1st of February, 2021.

So I want to make sure thatthe international community

recognize us as a legitimate government.

This is the law makers,

not that illegal militaryregime in the country

that only bring thedarkness and the suffering

to the people of Myanmar.

- You have a very hugefollowing on social media,

specifically on Facebook,and recently you posted

on Facebook asking peopleto send you information,

video testimony evidenceof the alleged atrocities

being committed by the military junta.

What have you received so far?

And what can you tell us about the extent

of their human rights violations?

- The state forces, the security forces,

the armed forces who shouldbe protecting the people

of Myanmar are now against thepeople of Myanmar, brutally.

And it's very sad.

They have declared a waron the people of Myanmar

in a very aggressive way.

They are arresting the people,

particularly targeting their critics.

- You had a chance to have a meeting

with the representativesof the United Nations.

Can you tell us what you you told them

about the situation in your country?

- We have collected allkinds of informations

of the brutality andthe human rights abuses

and the violations committedby the security forces

in the last three weeks.

And so it is really for us to submit

all those evidence andproof to the United Nation's

Human Rights Council andalso UN Security Council

to build up the maximum pressures

to these brutal military regimes.

- We have seen for thefirst time in this protest

that thousands ofpro-military junta supporters

are now taking to the streetsof Mandalay, of Yangon.

Do you fear that this justescalates the situation

right now in your country?

- Well, it is a fact that bythis same military coup leaders

they are given the cash,5,000, which is some $3 per day

so that they can go and protest

and disturb these peoplewho are pro-democracy.

And so it's very evil, whatthey are doing is very evil.

And our people, they make our country poor

and they make the economy collapse.

This created situationswhere all these people

will be a collapse of healthcareand a collapse of economy.

And they have created asystem where all these people

will be suffering to the maximum.

And so now the people arehaving no food to eat.

And again, they get some cash and say,

"Look, I'll give you $3 per day.

You go do for me this."

So I have got a list of everythingthat they have collected,

how much they paid to whom.

And we have got people whoare distributed the pictures,

everything, evidence thatthey are doing these,

they are making the people of Myanmar

against the people ofMyanmar, so it's evil.

- The U.S. administrationunder President Biden

has slapped sanctions on various generals

in the military junta.

Do you think that the UnitedStates and Western countries

should also slap sanctions on the various

lucrative businesses that the military has

across the country, from SIM cards

to wireless communications,to all the various enterprises

that is raking in billionsof dollars for the military?

Would you like the U.S. to do that?

- Yeah, I mean, sanctioningand punishing the generals,

it's not enough.

It's the same, the one who supported them

into this power are the same as the one

who's committed thiscrime against humanity.

So we are making the list of the company

and the people associatewith this regime, junta.

So all those business who involve

with these militaryleaderships must be punished,

because all the bullets and the weapons

that they are killing againsttheir own people are coming

from those kinds of businesses.

And therefore, we are nowasking Mr. President Biden's

administration to make tougher sanctions,

and also British governmentand European Union

to make bigger sanctions onthe people who support them.

- Obviously, the military generals

do not recognize yourappointment as the representative

to the United Nations.

Are you afraid for your life?

Are you concerned thatyou might be arrested?

- Definitely, they willdo anything to harm us.

They have issued severalnotification threatening us,

but I don't believe that they will be able

to do what they wanted to.

And then I believe that thisis a very important mission

that we have to do, andI do not serve the evil.

I do not serve their purpose.

I am not appointed by the generals,

but I am appointed bythe people of Myanmar.

Therefore, I will represent the people

of Myanmar til the end.

- You don't hide the factthat you are a Christian

and you rely on your faith.

Can you talk about maybe some Bible verses

that have encouragedyou, given you strength

in the middle of this very difficult time?

- I accept Jesus as my Savior and my Lord,

and I believe that Hedied for me on the cross.

He came from heaven to earthto serve so that I can live.

He died so that I can live.

It's very simple.

So I think, to summarize,it's all about love,,

and I'm encouraged and also reading

First Corinthian 13, versesone to seven about love.

I am inspired and also deeply touched

by that verses that talk about love.

Love is kind, love is patient,

love is not boastful, allthat chapter and verses,

those are my favorite.

And also I'm really encouraged

and get the energy and strength

from Matthew 5:3 to 12

where Jesus was talkingabout blessed are those

who are poor in spirit, fortheirs is the kingdom of heaven.

Blessed are those who aremourned, they will be comforted.

He say blessed are those who are merciful,

for they will receive the mercy.

And blessed are those who hunger

and thirst for justice,for they will be satisfied.

Blessed are those who are pure in heart,

for they will see God.

And I am really, reallyinspired by all those verses,

and I believe that thoseliving words are so much

to our life and our way, and, I mean,

even our political work.

I think it's veryimportant that Jesus said,

"Love your neighbor as you love yourself.

And again even say even love your enemy.

- How would you likeChristians around the world

to pray for your nation?

- I will really appreciate if our brothers

and sisters around theworld pray for my country

in this time of troubles.

This is a very difficult timefor my people in country,

and all 54 million peoplein Myanmar are under siege

by the evil and darknesses.

And no one of the 54million are safe right now.

We all are in that fearand living under siege,

including our president andstate counselor San Suu Kyi.

So I ask all our friends and also family

and our brothers and sisters in Christ

to remember our people andcountry in their prayer.

In 24 hours in a day, ifyou can give two minutes

to pray for us, I believethat we will see the miracles

that we never have seen before.

And that is the freedomof the people of Myanmar

and the democratic society of Myanmar

is striving and blessingnot only for the country,

but also for the regionand the whole world.

But I believe that the prayercan move the mountains.

So the mountain is not the mountain

in geographical locations,the mountain in the hearts

of the people, particularly the army.

We need to remove themountains of these evils

in their hearts, butit's the only by spirit,

only by faith we can remove that.

So I hope and pray thatif the whole world join us

in prayer at least two minutes a day,

I believe that that evilmountains will be removed

and that there will be the kingdom come.

The kingdom of love, the kingdom of hope,

the kingdom of peace andthe kingdom of thriving,

and His kingdom offorgiveness, His kingdom

of reconciliation will cometo my people and country.

- Thank you so much forcoming on the broadcast

and we wish you the bestand our prayers are with you

and the Nation of Myanmar.

Thank you for coming on the show.

- Thank you very much,thank you very much.

God bless.- God bless.
