PBS Frontline World has a documentary on the “Saffron Uprising” and its aftermath. It includes footage from the crackdown and from along the Thailand-Burma border. The focus is the monks who spearheaded the protests. It is, without question, worth a look for anyone who is interested in the future of Burma and its people.
Other Frontline World reports on Burma are available here.

Please note: New Mandala encourages vigorous debate. However, for the moment we will only be publishing high-quality comments that make original contributions to discussion. There will, of course, still be space for pithy, humorous, eccentric and cheeky input. Short and sweet will usually trump long and involved. Repetitive ranting, unimaginative point-scoring and idle abuse will not be entertained. Comments which carry a real name are also more likely to be approved. Thank you for your ongoing interest and contributions.
