How does that add up? -- 50 MPs-elect arrested since May, 50 more MPs-elect
arrested over the past 2 days, 60 other NLD members (not MPs elect) also
arrested in the past couple of days?
That would mean that currently detained are:
100 MPs-elect,
60 members (arrested recently)
= 160 in all
Plus some non-MPs-elect still detained from May?
Of course, as we know, these people are not actually under arrest; but are
gratefully enjoying vacations at government guest houses (at SPDC
expense?). After all, Daw Suu had a camping holiday recently; her
colleagues have been working hard and also deserve a rest. How thoughtful.
