San Francisco based Burmese and American activists
announce a call for action “Peace Walk to Free
Aung San Suu Kyi” for the 60th Birthday of the
world's only currently imprisoned Nobel Peace
Prize recipient.
Aung San Suu Kyi, 1991 Nobel Peace Prize
Winner , has won over 50 international awards for
her nonviolent movement for social and political change in
Burma . She receives support from other Nobel Laureates, political
leaders, musicians and Global communities around the world.
We, San Franciscans, are proud to support her peaceful democratization
in her motherland.
Aung San Suu Kyi has been held under house arrest
for more than half of the17 years she has been involved in social
and political change in the Burmese ruling party. The current
ruling party, the State Peace and Development Council (SPDC)
is considered the most brutal military regime in the world evidenced
by their repressive policies towards their citizens.
We call on every single individual and each
organization in the San Francisco Bay Area and California , who
are concerned about Aung San Suu Kyi and the 50 million oppressed
citizens of Burma , to support us and take action by
joining us in our “Peace Walk to Free Aung San Suu Kyi.”
