General Aung San reviewed the deteriorating situation in Burma in 1946, noting that money was scarce, prices were high, agriculture was in chaos, and education and salaries were extremely low. Discrimination was common and civil liberties were curtailed. However, a local newspaper had claimed money was more plentiful than ever. General Aung San argued there was a gap between this theoretical viewpoint and the reality of most people in Burma struggling daily to survive. He stressed the importance of considering both theory and reality, as well as where data is based, to understand economic conditions accurately.

- 12. Out of the night that covers me, Black as the Pit from pole to pole, I thank whatever gods may be For my unconquerable soul. In the fell clutch of circumstance I have not winced nor cried aloud. Under the bludgeonings of chance My head is bloody, but unbowed. Beyond this place of wrath and tears Looms but the Horror of the shade, And yet the menace of the years Finds, and shall find, me unafraid. It matters not how strait the gate, How charged with punishments the scroll. I am the master of my fate: I am the captain of my soul. William Ernest Henley Invictus
