LONDON CALLING: Burma’s Human Rights Day Demonstration on 13 March by Burma Democratic Concern (BDC)

Burma Democratic Concern (BDC) is organising the Burma’s Human Rights Day Demonstration on 13 March 2012 from 12:30-13:30 in front of the Burmese embassy in London, UK.

Burma’s Human Rights Day

Last 23 years ago, Burmese people spearheaded by the young students showed their bravery calling for change so as to restore democracy and human rights in Burma. The then military dictator General Ne Win responded by opening fire on unarmed peaceful protesters killing thousands. Phone Maw is one of the very first students who died for the country defying military suppressions which trigger nation-wide mass uprising resulting in successfully toppling three decades long one-party dictatorship in Burma. During the mass uprising, thousands of people died as the result of violent military crack-down. Since then, Burma democracy movement has been honouring Phone Maw and fallen heroes on every March 13, as the Burma’s Human Rights Day.
