19th July,A Sad Day to Remember for all of Burma

On this day in 1947, approximately about 10:37 am,at the Secretariat in downtown **Yangon**,many of **Burma**'s Independence leaders were assassinated by an armed group of a rival political group,supplied by British forces while they were having a meeting.

6 months later ,on Jan 4 1948 ,**Burma**  finally got independence from British Colony. ***General Aung San***

He is responsible for the independence of **Burma** but assassinated 6 months before,shot 7 times . If he was still alive today,he would be **105** years old. Daughter : **Aung San Su Kyi (age 75).** ***Short Story*** British started attacking **Burma** from March 5 1824.The **patriots of Burma** defended the British forces for almost **60** years that population of **Burma** was halved more or less.British Conquered **Burma** finally on November 28 ,1885 ending the bloodline of **Burmese Royal family**. **General Aung San** was born on **February 13, 1915.** He left **Rangoon University** and entered national  politics in **1938.** He was both **anti-British** and **anti-Imperialist.** He  **Burma** to negotiate with **Imperial Japan** promising them **oil,rice &** **minerals** to attack British Forces in **Burma.** When British forces are fully retreated,**Burmese nationalists,lead by General Aung San** pushed Japanense forces out of **Burma** to gain independence. **General Aung San's last quote** “Even if we implement various projects after gaining independence, we have to work for at least 20 years. To speak bluntly, because it is easier for people to remember blunt speaking…to speak bluntly, we must work our asses off and buckle down, only then will we not be left behind over the next 20 years,” he said. “If you don’t work, you won’t be able to catch up with Thailand. Among independent countries, Thailand is not up to much. But then, compared with our **Burma**, Thailand is steps ahead of us. If other independent countries make one stride, we have to make several strides. Only then will we be able to catch up with them in the next 10 or 20 years.” “I want you to understand clearly that unless and until we catch up with them, even if this country is independent, it will be a country similar to a **prostitute** who has to charm everyone. ***The person may die,but his name will live forever.***
