Democratic rule ended in 1962 when General Ne Win led a military coup d'état. He ruled for nearly 26 years and pursued policies under the rubric of the Burmese Way to Socialism. Between 1962 and 1974, Myanmar was ruled by a revolutionary council headed by the general, and almost all aspects of society (business, media, production) were nationalized or brought under government control (including the Boy Scouts).[29] In an effort to consolidate power, General Ne Win and many top generals resigned from the military and took civilian posts and, from 1974, instituted elections in a one party system. Between 1974 and 1988, Myanmar was effectively ruled by General Ne Win through the Burma Socialist Programme Party (BSPP).[30]
Almost from the beginning there were sporadic protests against the military rule, many of which were organized by students, and these were almost always violently suppressed by the government. On July 7, 1962 the government broke up demonstrations at Rangoon University killing 15 students.[29] In 1974, the military violently suppressed anti-government protests at the funeral of U Thant. Student protests in 1975, 1976 and 1977 were quickly suppressed by overwhelming force.[30]

Celia Hatton is a CBS radio news reporter. Tonight, she is Bangkok,Thailand, just a few hundred miles from the devastation in Myanmar.
And ,Celia, "Why is the military regime resisting international aid efforts, including those offered by the United States?"
"
"Nongovernmental Organizations,in other words, NGOs. Meanwhile,we're hearing about a million people being displaced. So, is any aid reaching those individuals?"
"Some aid is getting through. Some of the aid workers we've spoken to have said it's a bit of a blessing, a bit of a silver lining to the cloud that the storm hit the country's biggest city Yangon, so they were able to get aid to that city very very quickly because they are set up there to deliver aid. And now they can focus on getting aid to outlying areas, people who have been affected by the storm."
"I understand there is an important referendum in Myanmar this weekend. How is that interfering with aid efforts?"
Rolls-Royce and Lloyd's of London are among 37 global companies which have been added to the Burma Campaign's annual 'Dirty List'. The revised list of 95 contains companies which the Burma Campaign claims directly or indirectly help finance Burma's military dictatorship.
The Campaign describes the regime as one of the most brutal in the world.
