"Peace and Reconciliation in Burma: The Way Forward in 2008"
In light of humanitarian crisis and gross human rights abuses going on under brutal dictatorship of Burma, we will be hosting a roundtable forum with some well known representatives from various opposition groups of Burma. This is a rare opportunity for everyone to meet face to face with the speakers below who traveled a great distance from the Thai Burma border area. We encourage everyone to participate and freely discuss challenges and opportunities for the restoration of freedom and democracy in Burma. We hope to see you there!
