Su Su Nwe, another towering Lady from Burma.

When the blogger look at the current political struggle in Burma from the

other perspective, the Generals of Burma seems to be afraid of the courageous Burmese ladies.

Daw Aung San Suu Kyi became the mother of the all respected Heroes for the struggle, and all Burmese consider her as our Freedom Fighter, and stay united behind her.

There are more and more prominent ladies continued fighting with these Generals. One of them is “Su Su Nwe”.

She was arrested a few days ago in the downtown Rangoon, on her way to place a poster near the Hotel, where the UN Human Right Envoy was staying.

Those who do not know who is Su Su Nwe, here is her brief biography,

Su Su Nway ; born 1971; also known as Su Su Nwe), a democracy activist and member of the National League for Democracy (NLD), is the first Burmese national to have successfully sued local government officials under a 1999 law that prohibits forced labour. The law was issued by Minister of Home Affairs, Col. Tin Hlaing on 14 May 1999.[1] Nway filed a complaint after she, along with other villagers, were forced into working on a road construction project by the local Village Tract Peace and Development Council.

Su Su Nway is from Htan Manaing village, Kawhmu Township (located 50 mi from Yangon), in Yangon Division. The case, filed by Su Su Nway, was pursued by NLD lawyers. On 3 September 2004, Sein Paw was sentenced to 16 months in prison, whilst Kyaw Thin, Myint Thein, and Aung Khin were sentenced to eight months in jail each. They were all members of local Village Tract Peace and Development Councils (PDC). Subsequently, the new town chairman charged her of harassment and defamation, and she was sentenced to an 18-month term at Insein Prison. In February 2006, with the aid of legal counsels, Nway attempted to appeal to the Supreme Court, located in downtown Yangon, but her case was rejected, after having appealing to district courts that rejected her cases.[2] She was released on 6 June 2006, as a result of international pressure from the United States government, the International Labour Organisation (ILO), the United Nations, and NGOs.[3]

Su Su Nway was orphaned as a child, and has a heart condition. She received a human rights award from NLD in 2005.[4]. She was awarded the John Humphrey Freedom Award in 2006. [5]

John Humphrey Freedom Award

I am fine but I don’t feel happy or sad about my release because forced labour in Burma still exists,” she told the Democratic Voice of Burma upon her release from prison. “I took my prison uniform with me because I know that I will have to come back to prison until Burma gains democracy.”

Su Su Nway’s defiant struggle for human rights and dignity has made her a symbol of resilience and courage to the people of Burma , who now honour her with the title, “Courageous Su Su Nway.”

Su Su Nway’s story moved us profoundly and represents the selfless commitment to justice that the John Humphrey Freedom Award was established to honour,” said Wayne MacKay, Vice-Chair of Rights & Democracy’s Board of Directors and a member of the committee that selected Su Su Nway from more than 100 nominations. “What she has accomplished is a powerful tribute to the human spirit that we hope Canadians and the international community will join us in celebrating.”

As a Burmese I am proud for her selfless sacrifice even with her poor health. ( She is believed to be suffering from the Rheumatic Arthritis and inflammation of Heart; not on regular medication due to her recent involvement in uprising and hiding afterwards. Hope her health will be not deteriorate in the harsh condition of the detention by the Military Junta)

Monk Says Myanmar Regime Is Worse Than Saddam Hussein’s

Since the violence of this past September, the world’s eyes have been trained on Myanmar. Unfortunately, foreign journalists are banned from the country formerly known as Burma.

But ABC News’ senior foreign correspondent Jim Sciutto and his crew posed as tourists in order to enter the country. Filming on a small camera, they conducted interviews undercover to give a voice to the silenced dissidents in the closed-off country.

Sciutto and his crew searched for the monks who last September flooded these streets in the biggest anti-government rebellion in nearly two decades. But they were gone. Even at Myanmar’s holiest Buddhist site, the Shwedagon Pagoda in Yangon, the monks with their bright, red robes were nowhere to be seen.

Interested in speaking to the monks themselves, Sciutto and his team secretly made their way inside a monastery in Mandalay, Myanmar’s second largest city, and a center of Buddhist education. In public, the monks appeared peaceful. But in private, they seethed with anger.

“We are very unfortunate having this regime,” said one monk. “This regime is the worst regime in the world, worse than Saddam Hussein.”

Hundreds of this monk’s fellow brothers are now missing. Some fled the government crackdown, retreating to their homes. Many others were imprisoned far away in the countryside, far from the public eye.

In prison, protesters face terrible conditions, torture and even murder. Our correspondent met a young student leader who was thrown in jail alongside the monks. After weeks in prison, he was released the day before we met him.

“They hit people with the rubber stick and they kick,” he said.

Since the police follow him 24 hours a day, he was interviewed in a moving taxi, to avoid arousing suspicion.

Some are dying. Buddhist monks are dying,” the young leader said.

Par Par Lay Said it is not over

When asked if the revolution is finished, Myanmar’s best known political satirists, Lu Maw and Par Par Lay, who were just recently released from prison, answered, “not finished, not finished. That’s why the government is now watching everything.

The revolution isn’t over, just underground. The people [are] still defying the government.”
