Here are some more information for Burma Chinese:
Today many parents panic if their child gets a tattoo at some point in their life. Many think of it as a degrading practice that symbolizes rebellion. But it should be remembered that tattooing was and is an art that came naturally to various native peoples for hundreds of years. Tattooing has been a native custom in many tribes or races across the world, although the origin of it varied within each tribe or race. The Tattoo, over the years, has signified caste, citizenship, servility, pride or marital status for many races.
In the Hawaiian Islands tattooing was common prior to 1800 and would indicate what tribe or district you came from. The material used for coloring in native tattooing was vermillion, carbon, gunpowder and indigo. These were embedded in the skin with sharp knives or hand-made needles. Members of the Tucanoe tribe were known for three vertical blue lines tattooed on the body. This was an indication they belonged to that tribe.
In the South China Sea area where Borneo, the Philippines, Sumatra and Java are, tattooing was also common among the natives. In Borneo, members of the Kyan, Pakatan and Kermowit tribes were the only tribes where everyone was tattooed. Oddly, they were considered the least brave tribes in the area. Still their tattoos indicated they were part of a particular group. Another Borneo tribe, the Dyaks, tattooed all of the married women, usually on the hands and feet and possibly the thighs. It was considered a privilege for the married woman and a sign of dignity.
In the Polynesian Islands such as Tahiti, a tribe known as the Otaheites appeared to tattoo themselves for religious significance. Common tattoos among them were squares, circles and crescents, along with men and dog tattoos. In this tribe every person was tattooed without exception as they reached adulthood. In Fiji only women were tattooed in a tradition dating back hundreds of years. It was believed that they were tattooed more for adornment than any other reason. A tattoo was seen as a decoration that beautified the women in preparation to find or keep a husband.
Among native Australian tribes it was common, and is today, to tattoo yourself with the group's totem, Otherwise known as a Wingong. A totem was a creature, plant or animal that the tribe believed they descended from. It could be a turtle, elk, owl, Cray-fish or snake, for instance. It might be considered the tribe's logo.
In Burma tattooing has always been a sign of manhood. Early explorers of the islands saw almost no man without a tattoo. The leg was a popular spot to have one. It was witnessed that tattoo artists would go around with books of designs which contained every symbol for warding off any kind of evil or for bringing good luck.
Native American tribes were advocates of tattooing. The married women of the Apaches and Yumas in Arizona traditionally were distinguished by a tattoo consisting of several blue lines from the lower lip to the chin. It was also known that when a young female was wishing to become a mother, she would tattoo the figure of a child on her forehead. As well, Mojave women, after marriage would tattoo vertical blue lines on their chin.
Within native tribes and in specific geographic locations, the art of tattooing has been a long tradition. In the modern world the tattoo is used more for personal decoration of the body, and personal meaning than it is for customary 'tribal type' purposes such as designating a group, although violent gangs many times have a common tattoo. For most it is popular to merely acquire a tattoo that has a personal meaning, and for others it is simply a fancy adornment.

THE CHINESE ARE COMING . .
What you may never find in your mainstream news sources . . .
THE CHINESE ARE COMING . . .
The demographic, environmental, religious and cultural pressures are building globally at a fast pace. In a future that is unpredictable it is difficult to say who will win, but one thing is for sure its going to be grim if not dark. Spiritual talks may be good for the soul but definitely bad for the nation and the physical safety of its citizens.
Last month in August 2009 the Chinese patrols had intruded in to Indian Territory 26 times and walked away with petrol and kerosene meant for our jawans guarding the border. On 30th August two Chinese helicopters entered the Indian air space and dropped some cargo very much inside the Indian Territory. In this year alone the Chinese have penetrated in to our land more than 700 times at different locations.
The army chief general Kapoor on these incidents has stated that “It could have been routine . . .”. As a bonafide patriotic and concerned citizen of this country I can retort and tell him “Send one of our old helicopters in to Chinese air space and see what happens”. In the not very distant past the Chinese had forcibly brought down a US surveillance aircraft which had intruded its territory and completely dismantled it, later the US had to collect bits and pieces of it. That is what I call integrity, strength and character of a nation,
A strong character and pride in the nation can come only with a strong law and order within the country. It has become imperative to punish the criminal’s right from the bottom to the top. The fear of the law has to be put in to their hearts... it is upon the politicians to do that but what can you expect of a country whose ministers have accounts in Swiss banks if not in their names directly then in the names of their near and distant relatives and friends.
Apart from China and Pakistan we have to be equally scared of our present politicians, if they find a loophole they would have no qualms in importing 10 million Chinese provided they can get votes from them. Trust them to invent convincing reasons to get them valid passports, ration cards or even the Nandan Nilekeni initiated Hi Tech cards.
Though a bit late in the day but not unusual for it, the Indian government is just about waking up to the real and present danger from China. Thanks to channels like Times Now.
The Chinese had made their intention public much before the 1962 war. In 1950 Mao had repeatedly proclaimed that Taiwan, Tibet and the Hainan islands were Chinese territories and will be repossessed. Nehru and his congress govt were busy enjoying the perks which came with power and totally neglected the threats emanating from this Hindi chini bhai bhai neighbor. Hence Nehru became the prime cause of the humiliation which our country had to suffer in the 62 war.
In 1963 Pakistan ceded to China a chunk of Indian Territory under its control, about 1580 sq kms. Through this very piece of land China has built the 1280 km Karokram highway linking Kashgan in Xinijiang in China with Islamabad in Pakistan, on this area of India called Aksaichin. The Indian defense experts have since 1980s been advising the Indian governments about the strategic importance and implications of the Karokram highway but the only reaction they have got in exchange was an eerie noiseless snoring.
Despite losing thousands of our soldiers and huge chunks of territory the Indian govts failed to realize the significance of the Chinese communists growing up as a military organization. Today China dares to claim a mammoth piece of Arunachal Pradesh and Sikkim based solely on its military prowess, in contrast the Indian politicians /ministers have degraded and demoralized our armed forces.
China has cleverly promoted and managed different streams of threat in to India, foremost is the communist threat which emanates from Beijing and flows right till our Kerala. Second is the Islamic fundamentalist threat which it encourages from its proxies to cunningly blend it with the Maoists and Naxalites in to a dangerous cocktail of terror (about this cocktail of terror- I had written a few weeks earlier)
Today China has surrounded us from all sides which was but a natural progression right since the 1950s, our governments have preferred to sleep over it for 59 long years only to suddenly wake us up to show the nightmare live in the last months of 2009.
The encircling of India is been called the “String of pearls”. In plain words the string of pearls is meant to throttle India, I would rather call it “the Hangman’s noose”. On the other side is the Islamic Republic of Pakistan doing the halal on India with pumping in counterfeit currency, terrorism, drugs etc... On yet another side is the not so friendly Bangladesh , Nepal , Colombo and other small island countries.
Some groups and people who are advocating the line that economic co operation with China will reduce its animosity with us are only are only trying to pull the wool over our eyes for their own selfish and hidden purposes , Taiwan is the best example of this.
Apart from manufacturing fake and spurious products China is the biggest exporter of clandestine nuclear materials to the world. The Pakistani nuclear missiles and technology are entirely Chinese supported and nourished. The Pakistanis on the sly ofcource with Chinese approval gave this technology to North Korea and North Korea gave it to Burma. For all you know the Pakistanis may tomorrow give it to Bangladesh, Somalia. Or even to their co coreligionists and brothers in arms the Al Qaeda, Lashkar E Taiba etc.Pakistan's A Q Khan and his gang is notoriously famous for the same.
Today India urgently needs not only a second but third strike capability and for that we have to develop military muscle on par with China... what if China attacks India and simultaneously Pakistan also strikes a aggressive onslaught in to India ? Have our military planners worked out this scenario? Have our politicians equipped the Indian armed forces for just such a beginning. Expect the unexpected.
The Indian government always denies the most serious problem till the time the lid is blown off and they can’t keep it under the hatchet anymore. I strongly suspect the politicians are sitting smug all because the Indian population is busy watching and debating the half porn types of reality shows, dance competitions etc on television. Another part of this populace is in to the gurus who are preaching the rat like meditation but no one is preaching the art of war and destruction of the enemy. India could very well come apart at its seams as a major section of Indians are so enamored by the punks of Bollywood that they are growing up with just one ambition to be like those actors and actress. They are more interested in acting and dance classes than their studies or the welfare of the country. Looks like soon they will have to learn Chinese to survive.
Today India and its valiant armed forces need a true soldier who will stand up to the Indian politicians so that we can welcome the Chinese, Pakistanis and jihadis with open arms only to send them wrapped up in their coffins.

BURMA - Isn't a joke it's a serious question about freedom?!"LIGHT BULBS FOR BURMA"?
To Chinese President Hu Jintao and the UN Security Council:
We stand alongside the citizens of Burma in their peaceful protests. We urge you to oppose a violent crackdown on the demonstrators, and to support genuine reconciliation and democracy in Burma. We pledge to hold you accountable for any further bloodshed.

I agree with what you're saying and I think we should be putting pressure on the companies that are profiting in Burma, as well as lobbying the members of congress in the states where these companies have their headquarters. US-based Chevron and Total for starters who are, in the interests of protecting their oil interests, financing the oppressive military regime. Here's a "dirty List":
