Answer:
The correct answer is C. Many industrialized nations fail to address the human rights violations occurring in Burma due to the rich resources in Burma, such as oil, timber, and natural gas.
Explanation:
Burma is a sovereign state and by far the largest country on the Southeast Asian mainland. It borders north to China, west to Bangladesh, India to the northwest, east to Laos and southeast to Thailand. Burma's south coast extends along the Andaman Sea and to the southwest is the Bay of Bengal.
Since a military coup in 1962 until 2011, the country's government consisted of a series of military junta who led a deliberate isolation strategy, and Burma is today regarded as one of the world's least developed countries. A major problem is the country's large production of heroin, as well as the spread of AIDS.
In November 2010, the first parliamentary elections were held since 1990, and a new government took office in 2011 while the military junta formally ceased to govern the country.
The lucrative industries of gems, oil processing and forestry have recently been exploited by foreign companies that have joined forces with the government to access Burma's natural resources.
