Burma speaks on the non-violent approach.

The struggle for democracy and human rights
in Burma is a struggle for life and dignity.
It is a struggle that encompasses our
political, social and economic aspirations.
The people of my country want the two
freedoms that spell security: freedom from
want and freedom from fear. (Daw Aung San Suu
Kyi, 1991 Nobel Peace Prize Laureate)

This is the joint MTV and Burma Campaign
Video for Aung San Suu Kyi. I hope it's ok to
post it... I guess the more people making it
known, the better!
Aung San Suu Kyi remains under house arrest
since 30th May 2003, despite winning a
landslide 82% of the votes in the election
held in 1990.
I think I saw this film at the Human Rights
Film Festival last year, it really looks
familiar! But it's very powerful nonetheless

Aung San Suu Kyi
I am very humbly requesting any fellow
youtubers out there if they will take it upon
themselves to make their own video to
continue to increase awareness, to share it
with everyone, because I truly believe there
is strength in numbers. It doesn't have to be
anything fancy. It can be short and simple.
Knowing she's been imprisoned for years, and
for no reason It's cruel and pitiful that
she stay confined when she knew her husband
was very ill. She was not able to be by his
side when he died of cancer, but I know in my
heart they were both in each other's thoughts
and souls during Michael's last days of life.
I'm sure they both were in one another's
minds and hearts every single day.
Write a school paper on her if you are
allowed to pick the person. To any teachers
out there -- Please have one day of
awareness, teaching your students about what
democracy is, how precious freedoms are.
Introduce your students to Aung San Suu Kyi.
Have the students write letters for her. She
represents freedom, democracy, elegance and
grace.
Fight the good fight, and this is one of
those good "fights".
Aung San Suu Kyi is about 62 years old now.
She's done absolutely nothing wrong. She is a
graceful, humble, decent caring human
There are no regular visiting hours for her.
Than Shwe is Burma's leader of one of the
world's most BRUTAL regimes.
Than Shwe should not be in power. He lost the
election.
Perhaps the person that replaces him will
show the world what a great leader is by
freeing Suu Kyi, and all of the political
prisoners. This will be a man history will
look back on with fondness, a leader the
people of Myanmar (and the world) will
respect.
Last month she celebrated her birthday,
isolated.
I can't help but think about her sons, how
they worry about her and hurt for her. This
is their mother, and she's been unjustly
imprisoned, for years. I think about if that
were my mother or my father, wrongfully
imprisoned.
