A friendly tip from UN delegation group in NY

A Burmese delegate, who is discreetly democratic, in NewYork, who arrived to NY recently, told one of his buddies that Burmese democratic activists need to understand how to push the UNSC, which button to push to make it work. There is something called "UN diplomacy". There is a lot to understand.

For example, activists needs to understand
- how UNSC authorized UN troops to send to East Timor
- how UNSC may send UN troops without permission of Sudan government, so on.. so on..
