Sai Cliff Lin Kan :

Don’t be childish Mr. Bill Richardson. Bill Richardson should know Daw Aung San Su Kyi wasn’t dictator like Saddam Hussein or North Korean dictator Kim Jong-il. She has no power over Burmese Justice Department. The Judge will decide whether they are innocent or guilty after they were tried in court.

This is hypocrisy of childish former New Mexico Governor Bill Richardson. I'm not a Bill Richardson fan and I know his colorful past as New Mexico Governor.

He is preaching about democracy and rule of law to a third world country, but in reality, he behaved like dictatorship.

He was one of the guys who tell other peoples "do as I say, not as I do".

I don’t believe Bill Richardson claimed about Daw Aung San Su Kyi was very angry and upset when he urges her to release two Reuters reporters.

Daw Aung San Su Kyi will never show her anger, but she will tell straightforward if she has to.

What makes Bill Richardson to tell Daw Aung San Su to release two Reuter reporters?

Has the Reuters and the OIC sponsored Bill Richardson to go Burma and urge Daw Aung San Su Kyi to release two Reuter reporters from jail?

Obviously, Bill Richardson was very upset like a child who wasn’t getting Cookies when he asked his mother. His diplomatic manner was disappeared and criticized Daw Aung San Su Kyi for lack of “moral leadership once his mission was failed.

I don’t like the former US Politician include in Rakhine’s Advisory Commission especially Democrat Politician.

Anyway, I’m very satisfied about Bill Richardson has left Advisory Commission.
