In recent weeks we have all seen reports on the military take over of the government in the country of Myanmar (or Burma). An aspect which most people are not aware of, is this country is part of that which is referred to as The Golden Triangle.

Therefore, when we see news from such sources as these sites, please use a tremendous amount of discernment. It is said that The Golden Triangle not only contributes to 80% of the illegal drug trafficking world wide; but is also the centralized hub for human trafficking. Look very closely at who or which countries borders outside the Triangle. I could be wrong; but, believe these to be nothing more than propaganda hit pieces to protect financial interest; with little concern for the human cost.

Therefore, has there been a junta or coup or the removal of rampant corruption, that has only served to impoverish this beautiful country?
