Myanmar (Burma) Action: Free Aung San Suu Kyi and All Political Prisoners Now!

This year\'s Get on the Bus once again will feature an action in support of the Burmese people and their struggle for democracy, justice, and respect for human rights. The military rulers of Myanmar (Burma) have jailed thousands of people in their continuing efforts to crush all dissenting views. Amnesty International estimates that 2,100 political prisoners currently are being held by the military government. Most prominent of those detained is Daw Aung San Suu Kyi, the Nobel Peace Prize laureate who has been the beacon of hope and change for nearly two decades in Myanmar, the Southeast Asian nation formerly known as Burma.

Aung San Suu Kyi co-founded the National League for Democracy (NLD), a pro-democracy political party that sought to counter the military junta that had reigned over Myanmar since 1962. In 1990, the NLD won almost 80 percent of the parliamentary seats in a general election. Surprised at the landslide victory, the military junta refused to transfer power to Aung San Suu Kyi and the NLD, and jailed scores of political activists.

For 14 of the past 20 years, Aung San Suu Kyi (pronounced \

Religious violence continues to claim lives. The Red Cross announced that at least 400 bodies have been collected in the capital Bangui since Thursday.

French President François Hollande, working under a UN-backed mission to stem the tide of religious violence, called into question the interim president\'s role.

Myanmar (Burma) Action: Free Aung San Suu Kyi and All Political Prisoners Now! This year's Get on the Bus once again will feature an action in support of the Burmese people and their struggle for democracy, justice, and respect for human rights. The military rulers of Myanmar (Burma) have jailed thousands of people in their continuing efforts to crush all dissenting views. Amnesty International estimates that 2,100 political prisoners currently are being held by the military government. Most prominent of those detained is Daw Aung San Suu Kyi, the Nobel Peace Prize laureate who has been the beacon of hope and change for nearly two decades in Myanmar, the Southeast Asian nation formerly known as Burma. Aung San Suu Kyi co-founded the National League for Democracy (NLD), a pro-democracy political party that sought to counter the military junta that had reigned over Myanmar since 1962. In 1990, the NLD won almost 80 percent of the parliamentary seats in a general election. Surprised at the landslide victory, the military junta refused to transfer power to Aung San Suu Kyi and the NLD, and jailed scores of political activists. For 14 of the past 20 years, Aung San Suu Kyi (pronounced "Awng Sahn Soo Chee") has endured time in jail, unofficial detention, house arrest and restrictions on her movement. She continues to be held under house arrest in Yangon. Amnesty International seeks the immediate and unconditional release of Daw Aung San Suu Kyi and all prisoners of conscience in Myanmar.

Thaugsuban wants to set up a "people's council" of so-called good people to replace the government, Yingluck said that would be unconstitutional and undemocratic. Protesters don't just want Yingluck to go, they want to wipe out the influence of her brother, former prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra, who continues to pull the strings of government from outside the country.

  • Updated: 09 Dec 2013
South Africa's parliament is to meet to pay tribute to Nelson Mandela, as world leaders prepare for Tuesday's national memorial service. The sitting comes at the start of a week of commemorative events before a state funeral on 15 December. More than 100 current or former heads of state or government are to attend either the memorial or the funeral. On Sunday, millions took part in a "day of prayer" to remember the country's first black president. Monday's parliament sitting will be a special session. Mr Mandela's former wife Winnie Madikizela-Mandela and grandson Mandla are both MPs of the African National Congress but it is unclear whether they will attend. ANC spokesman Moloto Mothapo said: "We hope some members of the Mandela family will be there." FW de Klerk, South Africa's last white president, who shared the 1993 Nobel Peace Prize with Mr Mandela, has been invited. World leaders Over the next eight days, a series of events will commemorate the man who steered their country out of white-minority rule. The foreign ministry has confirmed that 91 current heads of state or government have confirmed they are coming to South Africa, along with "10 former heads of state, 86 heads of delegations and 75 eminent persons". US President Barack Obama, Francois Hollande of France and UK PM David Cameron will be among those attending Tuesday's memorial at a Soweto stadium. On Saturday, Cuban state media announced that President Raul Castro would be one of those attending Mr Mandela's funeral. Under Mr Castro's brother Fidel, Cuba was a staunch critic of apartheid, and Mr Mandela had expressed gratitude for his support. Tuesday's memorial service is likely to be one of the biggest such gatherings of international dignitaries in recent years. Among those on the list are UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon, German President Joachim Gauck, EU Commission President Jose Manuel Barroso, Dutch King Willem-Alexander and Crown Prince Felipe of Spain. d the burial in the Eastern Cape village of Qunu, where the late president grew up. While Tuesday's memorial service will clearly be a big organisational challenge, the state funeral will be a greater logistical one because of its rural remoteness, BBC correspondent Mike Woodridge reports. 'Light in the darkness' On Sunday South Africa held a "day of prayer" in Mr Mandela's memory. At Soweto's Regina Mundi Catholic Church, a centre of the anti-apartheid struggle, the priest Sebastian Roussouw said the late leader had been "a light in the darkness". Winnie Madikizela-Mandela was among the congregation at the Bryanston Methodist church in Johannesburg, where President Jacob Zuma urged South Africans not to forget the values he had stood for. Mourners have gathered every day outside Mr Mandela's house in the Johannesburg suburb of Houghton since Mr Mandela died at home on Thursday at the age of 95, after several months of ill health. Well wishers have lit candles there and laid thousands of wreaths of flowers and at his old home in Soweto. The government has given further details of the state funeral arrangements for this week: Tuesday, 10 December is the day for South Africa's official memorial service at the FNB Stadium in Soweto, and will be addressed by President Zuma with tributes from other heads of state The memorial service will be shown on big screens at three "overflow" stadiums - Orlando, Dobsonville and Rand Between 11-13 December, "selected international visitors and guests" will be able to view Mr Mandela's remains at the Union Buildings in Pretoria. The public will be able to view the body from 12:00 to 17:30 on Wednesday and from 08:00 to 17:30 on Thursday and Friday Each morning his body will be taken from the mortuary to the city hall through the streets of Pretoria. Members of the public have been encouraged to line the route and form a "guard of honour". His body will be transported on Saturday, 14 December, from Waterkloof Air Force Base in Pretoria to the Eastern Cape, with a procession from the airport at Mthatha to his home village of Qunu where a traditional ceremony will be held. A national day of reconciliation will take place on 16 December when a statue of Mr Mandela will be unveiled at the Union Buildings in Pretoria Some 90 screens will be set up across the country to show all planned national events Flags at all official buildings are to remain at half mast throughout the period and books of condolence are being circulated across the country and online for people to post tributes, record memories and express their emotions. A government statement recalled the former president's own thoughts when asked how he wished to be remembered. "It would be very egotistical of me to say how I would like to be remembered," Mr Mandela said. "I'd leave that entirely to South Africans. I would just like a simple stone on which is written, 'Mandela'."

But the cheers mask the fear of a nation on the brink. Religious violence continues to claim lives. The Red Cross announced that at least 400 bodies have been collected in the capital Bangui since Thursday. French President François Hollande, working under a UN-backed mission to stem the tide of religious violence, called into question the interim president's role. "We must disarm the armed groups, restore stability, and at the appropriate time, enable the country to hold free and fair elections," said Hollande, addressing the Africa-France summit in Paris. The country has been plunged into violence since the president was ousted in March by the Muslim Seleka rebel group. Fearing for their lives, 10 percent of the population have fled their homes often taking refuge in churches. At the Catholic Mission in Bangui, Father Evitas, Don Bosco spoke of the rising humanitarian crisis. "(It) causes a sanitary problem, as we do not have the infrastructure for this. We have a problem with toilets - we don't have any. Then there's the health problem, we don't have any medicine."

VICE NEWS exclusive footage and interviews with British nationals fighting with al Qaeda in Syria. Yesterday, MI5 Director-General Andrew Parker announced that hundreds of British Muslims have travelled to Syria to take part in "terrorist tourism". Today, we present exclusive video footage and interviews with British nationals fighting with al Qaeda in Syria. In the film, two young men with British accents echo the sentiments expressed by Lee Rigby's killer Michael Adebolajo and declare jihad against the UK and United States. "I say to the United States that your time will come," says one of the men, who gives his age as 26, "and we will bleed you to death and, Inshallah, shall raise a flag in the White House." The second jihadist calls on the British public to rise up against the government: "Like the guy in Woolwich, he explained that David Cameron would never walk on the street, and he'll never get shot in the face, whereas you guys who are soldiers, or just normal folk, will take the blame for the crimes that are committed worldwide, by Britain itself, so we have to fight." The film also shines a light on the communication difficulties that arise when radicalised extremists from Britain, France, Chechnya, Bosnia, Kosovo and Turkey, among other countries, get together to fight on the front line.

Addressing them in Spanish, the Pope denounced that nowadays, starvation isn't seen as an urgent or 'scandalous' problem. He also said that instead of helping the poor, many institutions and political leaders often use the economic crisis as a way to shift the blame away from themselves.
