Muslims in Mon State city are organizing people in the capital to join their religion to free themselves of disasters like Cyclone Nargis. They are distributing fly papers to this effect.
The fly papers said people in Burma faced the disaster and many were killed because they don't believe in their religion, the fly papers said.
"The paper said that a Muslim leader went to sleep while giving a speech and dreamt that people who do not join his religion would face disasters," a fly recipient told IMNA.
The paper mentioned the disaster like Cyclone Nargis which hit Irrawaddy delta and Rangoon division and killed more than 140,000 people on May 2 and 3.
The paper was distributed in Moulmein and Kyaikmaraw Township. According to residents from both townships, thousands of papers were distributed.
Not many people are believing what is written on the paper, residents in the townships said.
A majority of senior abbots in Burma said the Cyclone Nargis hit Burma because the military government killed Buddhist monks last September.
"You can see, both Burma and Chinese regimes which killed monks faced disasters," an abbot of the former State Sangga Nayaka said. Myanmar had to contend with Nargis and China faced an earthquake.
Myanmar military government used the Union Solidarity Development Association (USDA) from Irrawaddy delta for a crackdown on peaceful demonstrations by Buddhist monks last September. …………………………………………………………………………………………………………… For further information please contact to imna_news@yahoo.com , www.monnews-imna.com Contact Editor:
