Your blogger's Burma has been under attack from the militant terrorists whose ancestors were
hailed from back then East Pakistan, now Bangladesh. See the news from the Reuters below:
At least 71 killed in Myanmar as Rohingya insurgents stage major attack

The militant muslim terrorist group, which was previously known as Harakah al-Yaqin (what
ever it means) now re-labelled as Arakan Rohingya Salvation Army (ARSA) is sophisticated
as one could infer from its new name. That name, in your blogger's opinion, is to stealthly kick start the empathy engine of western audiences who are more likely to be Christian.
By using Christian sounding name such as "Salvation Army", those terrorists are trying to make an average western TV viewer unconsciously side with them. Had they self-styled as "Allah's Army [for seizing Burmese sovereign land]", or "Shahid (martyr) Brigade [fanatic mob who will charge at police outposts and hack Burmese civilians]", or "Jihadi Mujahids
[to steal Burmese territory]" then they could not sneak into the good books of Christians.
So I might say, the name they have taken has shed some lights about them. Smart name!
Daw Aung San Su Kyi, whom Burmese affectionately called as Aunty or Mother, should not
underestimate those land grabbers from the west.
