“To make things simple in their minds, a group of people played a seng, and a group of people who heard it came to the seng and danced. There was no one to guide them, telling them what to do, how to dance, which scene to play, and which direction to play. They danced as if they were drunk. Soon, everyone got tired of dancing and became exhausted. The plot was not clear and had to be stopped without finishing. If you think about the current politics, there are many leaders who can make the audience want to get up and dance. There are very few leaders who can organize the plot and show a good ending.”

Farmers are boycotting their land and marching to the city to demand their demands. Workers are also boycotting their workplaces and demanding their demands. The oilfield strike has walked more than four hundred miles to Yangon. Students are also boycotting and working to prevent their demands from being met. How will these issues end... Will they reach the top one day... Will they fall into the abyss...

These events were caused by the bourgeoisie and the colonial government that protected the bourgeoisie. So, only when we can overthrow the bourgeoisie and the colonial government can these issues be resolved. How and in what way will we overthrow it? We need to be aware of the experiences of Lenin and Stalin, who overthrew the bourgeois tsarist regime. We need to be aware of the liberation of Egypt, a country with the same population as Myanmar, from British rule.

Therefore, it is necessary to study and analyze what system the country will be established under after the revolution against the bourgeoisie and colonialists. We must thoroughly understand the principles of Marxism. We must study and memorize the working principles of Lenin.

So the immediate task of politicians is to "read. To encourage more readers. Reading does not mean reading quickly. It means studying and absorbing the text. Reading should be compared to eating. If you eat and do not digest the food, it will lead to death. If you do not read the text thoroughly, it is the same as if you did not digest the food. Eating also gives you strength. Just as eating food rich in vitamins is important, when you read, we will be successful in our struggle.

"Reading is not enough. Read and think, think and discuss. Gathering and discussing the topics in the book will increase ideas, eliminate misunderstandings, and foster camaraderie. Let us complete this immediate task and complete the main task," he wrote.
