Hello and welcome to Amnesty International Canada's Myanmar blog!
I hope that this is a place where everyone can feel comfortable sharing information, posting resources, and get to know one another better through our common work on the Myanmar file.
Yours in solidarity,

Good morning!
I have just been in touch with the University of Manitoba group, who is planning to have a day of letter writing dedicated to Myo Min Zaw. As well, they are considering hosting a taste for justice event in his name. Has anyone tried holding a hunger banquet for Myo Min Zaw?
What other initiatives does your group have on the go?
Hey Hannah and all other Myo Min Zaw Youth Advocates!
We haven't tried holding a hunger banquet for Myo Min Zaw...although it is a cool idea! I was thinking more of a dinner party, but it still needs to be discussed as a group! I be really excited to hear about any other efforts other groups have decided to do on behalf of Myo Min Zaw!!

Hello to both Rebecca and Hannah! I think the idea of a hunger banquet sounds terrific. It would certainly grab people's attention more than an actual dinner. You might also consider reproducing some of the prison conditions he is suffering -- without being too masochistic!
Let's hope your idea works out.
Brian
