Peace Vigil In Unity for the liberty of Daw Aung San Suu Kyi

This vigil is part of an initiative of coordinated vigils organised by groups in Southeast Asia. While we have our vigil for Aung San Suu Kyi in Malaysia, other groups in other countries in Southeast Asia will also be having vigils at the same time.

Please come with your friends to show solidarity for Aung San Suu Kyi - one of the greatest leader of peaceful resistance against oppression of our time - and the oppressed people of Burma.

You can also make your own posters and/or banners.

Details of the vigil
DATE: Sunday, 31 May 2009
TIME: 6.30pm
VENUE: Meet at entrance of KL & Selangor Chinese Assembly Hall
Dress code: Wear YELLOW and/or RED

Local organisers are Tenaganita, SUARAM, Youth 4 Change (Y4C) and the Civil Rights Committee of the KL Selangor Chinese Assembly Hall.

Background:

Daw Aung San Suu Kyi, who won the democratically-held elections in 1990, has been under house arrest for almost two decades. On 18th May 2009, she was charged with breaching the terms of her house arrest by hosting an unauthorized visitor after an American man swam uninvited to her compound and refused to leave.

She has borne her trials with dignity. Yet they continue unabated. The world has honoured her with a Nobel Peace Prize and lobbied tirelessly for her freedom but there is a growing helplessness towards the situation as the Myanmar junta continues to keep her in detention without trial.
