Into the current

http://www.intothecurrent.org/html/video_clip/movie.html

This documentary presents Burma’s long struggle for freedom, it’s all about the political prisoner whose went through imprisonment, torture and isolation. We, all Burmese will be free when the basic freedom is granted to everyone.  Into the Current illustrates the evils of military dictatorship, historical depth, and powerful visual evidence of past and ongoing repression.  By watching Into the Current, the viewers are inspired by their commitment to transform our country into a free society.  If all political prisoners are still behind the bar,   we cannot believe that our nation is moving forward to true changes.

The Art of Establishing Humanitarian Organization in Burma

Swe Zin Htaik gave a talk about humanitarian activities that she has organized and facilitated in Burma.   She has been working effectively in health education for more than a decade.  The talk was very engaging and informative about how she has worked with local government, corporations and management teams.  In particular, she used the media to get the message out to the public base on social marketing process.  She plays a leading role in sex educating to public even though she is a non-medical person. She has continued her campaign through social and cultural constraints on sex education. She could manage to deliver the message to public on health educational issue.  A short documentary film showed how individual well spent most of their time on educating the villagers to change their perspective in some remote area.   Particularly, deploying people to do humanitarian on-the-ground inside Burma made me move.  Here are some pictures that I took from the event.
