Some M23 leaders are already subject to Security Council sanctions.<br /><br />The US urged the UN mission in DRC, MONUSCO, to investigate charges of cross-border shelling. Rwanda said five mortar bombs had fallen on Rwandan villages on Friday, following a rocket the previous day, and blamed DRC&#39;s army.<br /><br />Rwanda twice invaded its larger neighbour in the 1990s and sponsored rebels trying to topple the Kinshasa government.<!--SPOILER DIV--></div><!--SPOILER DIV--><br /><br />Millions have died since then in DRC&#39;s eastern border area, a patchwork of rebel and militia fiefdoms in an area rich in tin as well as tungsten and coltan ores.<br /><br />A UN report in June said the M23 recruited fighters in Rwanda with the aid of sympathetic Rwandan army officers, while elements of the DRC army have cooperated with the Rwandan Hutu rebel group FDLR, which Rwanda denies.<br /><br />Source: Agencies<br /><br /><!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd--><br /><br /><a href='http://www.aljazeera.com/news/africa/2013/08/20138267276396191.html' target='_blank'>http://www.aljazeera.com/news/africa/2013/...7276396191.html</a> satuuu gor The Museum Of Kopitiam Mon, 26 Aug 2013 22:45:11 +0800 http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/2917434 juz nao see a procession by yindians, parading around their god in cow cart, walking a considerable distance (&gt;1km) with check point tent every hundred metres.... what is the occasion today, never seen this type of parade except on thaipusam.... satuuu gor The Museum Of Kopitiam Fri, 09 Aug 2013 19:45:28 +0800 http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/2892289 sabar pun ada limit la anneeh.... mulut kasi tutup laaa.. yg sudah tu sudah laaaa<br /><br /><br /><a href='http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=h1Fskej6wag' target='_blank'>http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=playe...d&v=h1Fskej6wag</a><br /><br />[YOUTUBE]h1Fskej6wag[/YOUTUBE] satuuu gor The Museum Of Kopitiam Sat, 20 Jul 2013 06:41:45 +0800 http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/2756048 really brazen.... got rifle camera some more<br /><br />i dont know whether can respawn on squad leader or not<br /><br />[YOUTUBE]x7cf7yfasP4[/YOUTUBE]<br /><br /> satuuu gor The Museum Of Kopitiam Sat, 30 Mar 2013 19:55:35 +0800 http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/2221035 Guise, as per topic,<br />i&#39;m using DELL optiplex 755, Desktop version (DT)<br /><br />it got 1 PCI-e x16 slot &amp; i&#39;m thinking of upgrading...<br /><br />recommed me any good graphics card around RM500 <br />purpose - gaming, i/e able to support 2012 3d games decently <br /><br />my PSU 280W oni. <!--emo&:cry:--><img src='http://static.lowyat.net/style_emoticons/default/cry.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='cry.gif' /><!--endemo--> <br /><br />will 128 bit be enuff or do i need 256bit upwards?<br /><br />am thinking of SAPPHIRE HD6850 1GB D5 256BIT (RM525) but i wanna get your view first...<br /><br />last time i baught GC is 9 yrs ago Radeon 9800 Pro, <!--emo&:nod:--><img src='http://static.lowyat.net/style_emoticons/default/nod.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='nod.gif' /><!--endemo--> <br /><br />now amma bit lost..... <!--emo&:stars:--><img src='http://static.lowyat.net/style_emoticons/default/rclxub.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='rclxub.gif' /><!--endemo--> satuuu gor Hardware Fri, 10 Feb 2012 12:45:03 +0800
