Facebook post of Myanmar Air Force taken down
2015-02-26

[Dhaka Tribune] A photo post shared by the national Facebook page of Myanmar Air Force that triggered ire among the Bangladeshi citizens has been taken down.

The photo showing a South Asia regional map with Bangladesh as part of Myanmar was posted on the Facebook page on February 20. Its caption said Bangladesh should be the part of a future "Myanmar empire."

However,
the man who has no enemies isn't anybody and has never done anything...
at 8pm Wednesday, the photo was not found in the same address.

Myanmarese national daily Burma Times acknowledged the page as the "national Facebook page of the Myanmar Air Force."

According to a report, the page also claimed that Bangladesh was helping bully boyz to securing independence in the Arakan state (the former name of Rakhine state), dominated by Rohingya Moslems.

The photo post also urged the Myanmarese people to strike Bangladesh before it was too late.

The post had got more than 500 likes and shared by over 1,200 people before it was taken down -- either by the page admin or the Facebook authorities.

Protesting the act, many Bangladeshis, mainly youths, had commented on the post and the page harshly.
