World Politics Hitting Close to Home.
PLEASE HELP FREE MY FRIEND AND FORMER COLLEAGUE.
Bobo is a friend and fellow employee at the institution I worked at before I got to the U of Rochester. He is one of the kindest, hardest working individuals I have ever known. He came to America after being incarcerated for several years as a political prisoner in Myanmar (Burma). He started in the US working in Berkshire County Massachusetts taking any job he could, while earning his undergraduate and graduate degrees and came to work as a researcher for American Investment Services.
He re-entered Myanmar several times at great risk to assist his family, an even started an orphanage following the cyclone in 2008 in which over 80,000 people perished. He went on to earn his PhD in London and until recently has served as Governor of Myanmar’s Central Bank.
He has now been re-imprisoned following the recent military coup.
This is a man who truly knows the value of freedom because for most of his life he lived without it.
Please encourage your congressional representatives to seek the release of Bobo Nge. Here is some suggested language: “
I am writing to express my concern for the safety of Bo Bo Nge who was arrested and has been detained in the military coup and crackdown in Myanmar, and to ask that you do all you can to seek his release. Mr. Nge is a true friend of freedom and democracy. After many years in the United States he returned to his native Burma to lend his education and technical expertise in the building of a free civil society and institutions. He deserves to be free.”
This an extremely sad news. I visited Myanmar in Fall 2018, and there my Econ class visited Yuma Bank. We received a presentation about Myanmar’s banking system and one of the things talked about by the presenter was mobile payments progress and now I am learning about this man’s role in it. From the Berkshire Eagle article: “It reduced the government deficit by 50 percent, launched smartphone retail payments, created a special economic zone at Thilawa (…)”.
Bobo Nge is one of the sweetest, most genuine people I have ever met. I am hoping and praying to the universe he will be released. His wife and son deserve to have Bobo home, he is a loving, warm, smart, devoted person and it hurts to think of him detained and separated from the loves of his life. If everyone was even a tiny bit as good, dedicated and as kind as Bobo this would be a wonderful world. Free Bobo. I was praying he would be amongst the people released today . Free Bobo and all detainees in Burma ( aka Myanmar).
Hey there! I know this is kinda off topic however , I’d figured I’d ask. Would you be interested in trading links or maybe guest authoring a blog post or vice-versa? My blog covers a lot of the same subjects as yours and I feel we could greatly benefit from each other. If you might be interested feel free to send me an email. I look forward to hearing from you! Fantastic blog by the way!
I just added this site to my google reader, excellent stuff. Can’t get enough!
Woah! I’m really enjoying the template/theme of this site. It’s simple, yet effective. A lot of times it’s tough to get that “perfect balance” between user friendliness and visual appeal. I must say you have done a excellent job with this. Additionally, the blog loads extremely quick for me on Opera. Outstanding Blog!
Thank you for your sharing. I am worried that I lack creative ideas. It is your article that makes me full of hope. Thank you. But, I have a question, can you help me?
Hi, i think that i saw you visited my site so i came to “return the desire”.I’m attempting to to find things to enhance my site!I assume its ok to make use of a few of your ideas!!
Thanks for sharing your ideas. I would also like to say that video games have been ever evolving. Better technology and innovations have aided create reasonable and enjoyable games. These kinds of entertainment video games were not as sensible when the actual concept was being tried out. Just like other kinds of technologies, video games also have had to advance by means of many decades. This itself is testimony towards fast growth and development of video games.
I’ve been browsing online more than 3 hours today, yet I never found any interesting article like yours. It is pretty worth enough for me. Personally, if all site owners and bloggers made good content as you did, the internet will be a lot more useful than ever before.
We are a gaggle of volunteers and opening a brand new scheme in our community. Your web site provided us with helpful info to paintings on. You’ve done an impressive task and our whole community will be grateful to you.
Yet another issue is that video games are typically serious in nature with the major focus on learning rather than fun. Although, it has an entertainment aspect to keep children engaged, each one game is usually designed to focus on a specific group of skills or area, such as instructional math or science. Thanks for your publication.
Excellent site you have here but I was wanting to know if you knew of any forums that cover the same topics talked about in this article? I’d really love to be a part of community where I can get comments from other experienced people that share the same interest. If you have any suggestions, please let me know. Thank you!

Wonderful blog! Do you have any recommendations for aspiring writers? I’m hoping to start my own website soon but I’m a little lost on everything. Would you suggest starting with a free platform like WordPress or go for a paid option? There are so many choices out there that I’m totally confused .. Any tips? Thank you!
I have learned a number of important things via your post. I might also like to convey that there might be situation in which you will have a loan and never need a co-signer such as a Fed Student Support Loan. However, if you are getting credit through a traditional bank or investment company then you need to be ready to have a co-signer ready to allow you to. The lenders are going to base that decision on the few aspects but the greatest will be your credit worthiness. There are some loan providers that will as well look at your job history and make up your mind based on that but in almost all cases it will depend on your credit score.
I am really impressed with your writing skills and also with the layout on your blog. Is this a paid theme or did you customize it yourself? Anyway keep up the nice quality writing, it’s rare to see a nice blog like this one nowadays..
