Zusammenfassung
“Burma is our country, Burmese literature is our literature; Burmese language is our language” was the slogan of Dobama Asiayone (Tarling, 1992, p. 289), one of the oldest political institutions structurally promoting Bamar supremacy, operating since precolonial times. This policy affected all Bamar-dominated political institutions and the discrimination against frontier populations continued under the military regime after gaining independence from the British (Smith, 1994). Until today, Burma1 is a country with strong social structures from which people from minority groups have suffered social injustice and inequality due to the imbalance in power sharing.
