In light of the spat between Myanmar Times and Frontier
Myanmar, Burma Tha Din obtained an exclusive interview with U Wai Linn, owner
of the Myanmar Times, on condition it was not recorded.
BTD: Sir, can you tell us why you have published an article
in your newspaper accusing Frontier Myanmar of fabricating an interview?
U Wai Linn: I woke up one morning feeling resentful that
people don’t know the real me. They know I am a racist genocide denier who
brown-noses the government, but there is more to me than that. By denying I did
an interview even though there was a recording of the interview, people now
know I am a liar and an idiot as well.
BTD: Thank you. Do you have anything else you want to add?
U Wai Linn: Yes, don’t even think of publishing this
interview.
