ေဒါက္တာ ဆိတ္ဖြား, ေဒါက္တာ စိုးရင္ and Dr. Dr. blogger

Your blogger learned that Dr. Soe Yin, a law maker, a MP from the parliament of Myanmar, is going to sue  ေဒါက္တာ ဆိတ္ဖြား, an online entity like your humble blogger who expresses her opinions behind the safety of an on-line mask. Since your humble blogger is not sure whether that ေဒါက္တာ စိုးရင္ or  ေဒါက္တာ ဆိတ္ဖြား are fake PhDs or medical doctors with MBBSes, you readers should not expect comments nor opinions here. But it is very funny to see law makers are busy with petty issues such as proposing to sue the no-name Facebook personality like ေဒါက္တာ ဆိတ္ဖြား. Wow! my mother land, beautiful Burma, has democracy now!!!!!

So this  ေဒါက္တာ  ေဒါက္တာ blogger who has earned double doctorates is now thinking whether should he or she stops blogging as feeling wary of law suits.

Congratulations for driving a faker out of academia!

Maung Zar Ni is a popular fellow at this hall of shame. Let us reflect this as a case study. For the knowledge of our readers we will report you as a whole as we have been presenting you piece after piece.

Since early 2000s, we have learned that there is no thesis of Maung Zar Ni at the University of Wisconsin at Madison. But we did not pay attention. However, our suspicions grow, alarm bells in our scholarly bodies rang, and signals that there is a faker out there amplified in recent years. We got gut feelings that he is faking PhD after reading articles after articles of his unbalanced lope-sided writings in popular on-line publications. His writings, anything but scholarly, prompted us to start investigating him. When we were quite certain that he is very likely to be a fake, we have given him
a chance to prove himself otherwise. We offered that if he can send his thesis, we will remove him from this hall of shame of faking PhDs. To make sure that we did our research right and presented our case clearly to you via this blog. We have presented our research question, methodology, tools, findings, conclusions here. Therefore, till now, our stand remains the same, until he sends us his PhD thesis, he is a fake PhD for us.

Recently, it seems to us that we are seeing some progresses ranges from uncommitted replies from administrators from the US, UK and ASEAN universities and now the resignation letter of our man with fake PhD. Congratulations to Dr. Nyein Chan, other Drs. and wanna-be Drs who have heavily contributed to this blog to take down a fake PhD, Maung Zar Ni.

We congratulate your efforts such as sending tips, talking to librarian of UW-Madison, checking whether the degree was conferred to the suspect with the university academic director, discussing with HR staff at the London School of Economics, initiating the communication and following up with UBD, getting opinions from few Burmese and foreign academics at London universities and running the plagiarism check of that random collection of sentences and paragraphs in an Adobe Acrobat file which he claims as his PhD thesis. We have read that pdf file but we find it hard to believe it is a thesis, especially from a university like the University of Wisconsin at Madison, a public ivy.

In fact, academia is already tainted by in-competent researchers who cannot publish or publish in fake journals and swamped by un-committed lecturers who cannot teach but merely rumble, so it is unbearable to see fake PhDs doing fake research and tutoring rubbish. So congratulations Drs and Dr Drs.

When you got fired or forced to leave, fake that you quit!!!

In the middle of a travel, your humble blogger has learned that one faker said quit to his employer.

Remember, your very humble blogger has not only earned 3 terminal post-graduate degrees, 2 professional degrees. But also he has been working or consulting private companies and public corporations of small, medium, large and mega-large sizes for more than 30 years. And he also teaches in 2 universities. So he knows about all work places those also include universities. Been there, done that, seen all.

Getting fired is nothing to feel sad or shame. It is part and parcel of professional lives although not for tenured professors who lose jobs unless they bonk a 17 years old freshman or a sophomore girls or both at the same time. Just don't say quit when you get fired. Don't do it. It is pathetic and people are not fools, they can sense fishy smell from thousands of miles away. We know that you are lying!

Read between the lines, I think our lad who publicly ranted "Long live my sugar daddies, who came through gaping holes in the western border of Burma, their man-meat I love to suck!" got fired from his employer, the only university in the small country. When you put foot in mouth, you get fired.

Happy New Year 2013 to everyone.........

Your humble blogger wished you a happy new year 2013! He wishes to waste less time on this blog.

Unless a shameless slut suddenly gets a hormone surge in his body to shout "Long live my stinky illegal trespasser sugar-daddies whose smelly man meat I crave to suck" or make such a sick $$ begging, attention seeking publicity stunt, your blogger will resign to his TantricYoga sessions - for the world peace. Your humble blogger believes keeping a harem and making love to girls and women of all races and religions can bring peace to humanity.

You need to fake a PhD when you aim for a peasant media!

Your humble blogger has been busy with teaching and tutoring load, administrative duties, endless meetings and editing crappy open-access journals where any fool can publish if they can pay $$s.

To keep his job, he edits some books from cash starving university presses where one can publish if he can spare $$s! When he is a bit free, when he turned to Burmese media and social news outlets, he found it is disturbing to see most Burmese peasants (call them laymen?) don't understand where PhD doctors write and show case their scholarly works. Since fake PhD Burmese writes in popular blogs like Irrawaddy, DVB, etc.. Burmese assume that they are legitimate show-casing research outlets where PhD doctors should write to publicize their works.

Your blogger needs to explain you the golden rule of true research doctorates aka PhDs. For example, in your blogger's research field, there are less than a dozen professors in the whole world who could understand and appreciate his scholastic works. And he'd be happy if only ten of them like his work, peer-reviewed referred papers, then he is happy. Sorry to say this out aloud, but he doesn't give a damn what peasants think of his work. Therefore, he will not waste time to see his work in blogs like  Irrawaddy as Irrawaddy audience are peasants.

Sorry to hurt your ego if you were one of those peasants! But this is how the academia and academics work. We only want like-minded peers, i.e. professors and fellow researchers to read and digest our works. Truth hurts but this is how worker bees in Ivory towers prefer. It explains how researchers and professors in university campuses work, we want to see our work in high impact referred journals and not in shoddily edited university presses or popular media outlets.

Having said that, there are fake and real PhDs who crave for media, who love interviews, who want to become peasant media sluts, who act like media buffoons and celebrity morons leveraging their PhDs. That pathetic phenomenon is not only confined to Burma and it is wide spread - see below.  The sad part is that when you do not have brains to earn a PhD and you want to talk to media to let them publish your idiotic rants like "Long live my sugar-daddies with long and thick and yet smelly manhoods which I crave" then you need to fake a PhD!
