Demonstration To Mark 60th Anniversary of Human Rights Day in London by Burma Democratic Concern

In Burma, human rights violations are committed on a daily basis by ruling military regime.Gross Human Rights Violations, including forced displacement, forced labour, attacked by soldiers on civilians, destruction or theft of food supplies, murder, torture, rape and political imprisonment have been widespread in Burma. Freedom of expression and Freedom of Association are non-existence. The right to life, liberty and security for Burmese citizens are denied. People of Burma have been subjected to arbitrary arrest, detention and exile.

International Community has been calling for military regime to release all political prisoners as the sign of progress for many years. But, Aung San Suu Kyi is still under house arrest and the results of the 1990 elections are not honoured yet. Suppressing on democracy activists intensified more than before and passed down long term prison sentences including their defence counsels.

Recently, fourteen well-known democracy activists have been sentenced to 65 years imprisonment due to their leading role in the 2007 Saffron Revolution.

Burma crisis is now in CRITICAL situation. Military regime is fully geared up to crush down all democratic forces in order to silent the public to instigate fear and to pave the way to hold illegitimate elections in 2010 in which they are set to win to perpetuate military rule in Burma before implementing the results of 1990 elections in which Aung San Suu Kyi’s party won landslide victory.

Burmese military might think that they are in final stage of legitimizing military rule in Burma and they are using ultimate forces to extinguish all the democratic forces. 

Respect for human rights and human dignity "is the foundation of freedom, justice and peace" in the world and 10 December is Human Rights Day. Justice is outlaw; injustice is prevailing everywhere and military regime is always above the law in Burma.

To highlight the military regime's atrocities,,Burma Democratic Concern,Burmese Muslim Association,Burmese Democratic Movement Association,Amnesty International (UK) and Burmese community in the UK succefully held the demonstration on 10th December 2008 and demanding that United Nation Security Council must take practical action on Burma.
