annpo | 9 June,2009 21:25

緬甸民主精神領袖翁山蘇姬被羈押在惡名昭彰的音山監獄，在他生日之前，在世界難民日之前，全世界發起聲援翁山蘇姬活動。我們不知道該做甚麼，可是我們可以保持關注。現在有64字挺蘇姬活動，上傳自拍照或文字表達對翁山蘇姬的支持，與要求緬甸軍政府釋放翁山蘇姬。619，台灣將舉辦為聲援緬甸政治犯音樂會。

he "64 for Suu" campaign「六十四字挺蘇姬」行動

The campaign "64 for Suu" aims to amass global support for Aung San Suu Kyi and all other political prisoners in Myanmar (Burma) and use the concentrated show of outrage and concern to push for practical actions by the international community to secure positive change in Myanmar. This campaign is organised around the renewed global interest in Myanmar in the wake of Aung San Suu Kyi's trial and in the run-up to her 64th birthday on 19 June, hence the name of the campaign.

在翁山蘇姬受審和六十四歲生日之際，表現對緬甸政治犯的支持與關注，推動緬甸民主改革。

The campaign centres around the website http://www.64forsuu.org/index.php. People can show their support by writing or filming solidarity messages in 64 words and post them to the website. There will also likely be a range of public activities eg. demos or vigils organised around the www.64ForSuu.org website as Aung San Suu Kyi's 64th birthday on 19 June approaches.

「六十四字挺蘇姬網站」可供民眾上傳文字或影音，以六十四個字表達對翁山蘇姬的支持，同時歡迎上傳全球在六月十九日前後相關活動的紀錄

Amnesty International is supporting this campaign because we want to sustain and increase the global attention and momentum of calls for Aung San Suu Kyi's release. Equally importanly, we're supporting this campaign because we want to take advantage of the renewed global interest over Myanmar to actively campaign for all political prisoners in Myanmar - this will be a more meaningful and strategic use of our collective campaigning energies. Many of these individuals are forgotten prisoners - and they are most at risk and most in need. And Aung San Suu Kyi has said publicly many times that the people in prison have it much tougher than she does.

國際特赦組織加入這項全球行動，除了要求釋放翁山蘇姬女士，也希望藉此機會讓大家關注緬甸其他二千多位被遺忘的政治犯。翁山蘇姬曾多次向這些政治犯表達敬意，因為他們遭受到遠比她更嚴酷的迫害。

另，目前國際特赦組織正集結全球政治犯、良心犯簽名，要求緬甸軍政府釋放翁山蘇姬，信件如下：

全球前良心犯聲援翁山蘇姬「六十四字聲明」：

致翁山蘇姬女士：

「剥奪你的自由，就是抹殺緬甸2156位政治犯的人權。身為前政治犯，我們同感不義之痛。茲呼籲聯合國安理會實施武器禁運，促緬甸釋放所有政治犯。我們支持你。」

聲明的目的

1.向翁山蘇姬和所有緬甸政治犯表達團結支持之意。

2.突顯所有政治犯的共同體驗：不義之痛。

3.要求聯合國安理會採取具體措施為緬甸政治犯爭取自由。

4.為何要求武器禁運？──因為像緬甸這樣無視人權的軍事政權，愈多的武器就等於愈多的人權迫害。武器禁運能得到各國遵守嗎？──確實很難，所以需要更多人加入，形成更大的壓力。

5.全面武器禁運在國際法上具有懲罰的意義，藉此要求緬甸改善人權，從釋放所有政治犯開始。

This is the draft statement by former political prisoners, it addresses Aung San Suu Kyi:

"The continued denial of your freedom is an unacceptable attack on the human rights of all 2,156 political prisoners in Myanmar. As former political prisoners, we share the pain of injustice. We call on the UN Security Council to urgently secure the release of all Burmese political prisoners by imposing a global arms embargo on the Myanmar government. We stand in solidarity with you."

If you scroll to the bottom of the e-mail, you'll find more information about the campaign and why the message is in 64 words.

Why this statement?

1. it is a show of solidarity to Aung San Suu Kyi and all her fellow political prisoners in Myanmar

2. it identifies a shared experience between all political prisoners: the pain of injustice

3. after a condemnation and a show of solidarity, the former political prisoners demand meaningful intervention by the UN Security Council (being the most powerful body in the UN) to free all political prisoners in Myanmar

4. the coalition of groups involved in the www.64forsuu.org campaign agrees that a renewed call for a global arms embargo on Myanmar would represent meaningful intervention by the UN Security Council (being a military regime with a very poor human rights record, the acquisition of more arms by the Myanmar government can lead to more human rights violations and strengthen its basis of existence; we all know it's not easy at all to get a global arms embargo because of the politics involved but if lots of groups are making that same call on the day Aung San Suu Kyi gets her verdict, hopefully it can make some important people sit up and turn some heads)

5. a global arms embargo is a form of punitive action. it seeks to pressure the Myanmar government into making concret human rights improvements, starting with the release of all political prisoners in the country
