BURMA Free Burma - www.burmacampaign.org.uk  / www.freeburmacoalition.org   Burma, a country of 47 million people is ruled by fear. A military machine of 400,000 soldiers denies a whole nation its most basic rights. Aung San Suu Kyi, pro-democracy leader and Nobel Peace laureate, symbolises the struggle of Burma's people to be free. Aung San Suu Kyi's Party, the National League for Democracy (NLD) won 82% of the seats in the 1990 election. The people of Burma overwhelmingly rejected military rule yet the military continues to refuse to transfer power to Burma's democratically elected leaders. Aung San Suu Kyi' has spent six years under house arrest, her movements are severely restricted, her phone frequently cut and she is prevented from seeing her family. Hundreds of her supporters are detained, many suffering torture and in some cases death. Her message is a simple one - that only by fighting fear can you truly be free - a message Burma's military fears and aims to silence. The song Walk On, on U2's All That You Can't Leave Behind, is dedicated to Aung San Suu Kyi.

A lifetime of devoted Bible reading has taught him that the truths of Scripture have the power to enrich and transform our daily lives in unexpected ways. Sources of Strength is his invitation to share in the spiritual bounty of Scripture and the joyous, more fulfilling life that a living faith makes possible. Take Me To It!
