Buddhist monks  asked the regime to lift its ban on flying the traditional Buddhist  flag, to grant Buddhism the same rights as Catholicism, to stop  detaining Buddhists and to give Buddhist monks and nuns the right to  practice and spread their religion.As he burned he never moved a muscle, never uttered a sound.</blockquote>
