You mean "democratize the parts with oil", do you not?

That being the case, I guess sombody fell asleep at the wheel when the
Burmese people democratically elected a government, but the military
refused to relinquish control. It might even be there's some oil
there - (there used to be a "Burma Oil company" anyway!)

Has Burma been creating a great deal of trouble for their neighbors and
the rest of the world?
