Les Miserables is undoubtedly the greatest musical ever staged. The opera had been translated and sung in many languages.
For my daughters and I, we watch the 10th Anniversary production no less than three times a year. Thirteen years ago, we sang the songs every day.
The passage of time has not reduced our love for the musical, Any of us merely sings a tune, right away, the television is on for a viewing.
Watching the news about Myanmar's people fighting brings to mind the lyrics -
"Will you give all you can give so our banner can advance, some will fall and some will live..."
Scores already died, including a beautiful 19 year old lass who knew that in standing the line, she could lose her life.

Just sad at what is happening in Myanmar where the military once again staging to control the political stage in the country. They are accusing the current government is not doing its job and being corrupt but as I see the civilians are the ones that do not agree with what the military has done taking over the government again.

@eileenleyva True Myanmar has been in Military rule for the longest time. They have just been restored to civilian rule but now the military is getting control again. I sincerely hope that they would realize that they are quite unpopular not only from within their country but to the whole world with what they do just shows that they are doing it for their own personal agendas

@rsa101 The military has deployed the army unit notorious for brutality. At least 60 already perished. No end to peace yet.
