This week on the program we speak with Tasneem Roc and Chue, campaign managers for the Myanmar Campaign Network, a national coalition of aid organisations, unions, human rights groups, faith based groups and Myanmar diaspora organisations under the auspices of Union Aid Abroad APHEDA.

Tasneem and Chue speak about what has been happening in Myanmar, the situation for political prisoners, and the ongoing Civil Disobedience Movement, as well as the MCN’s call for targeted sanctions from Australia to cut off the flow of money to the military junta.

Further information about the situation for political prisoners in Myanmar can be found at this report from the Assitance Assocation for Political Prisoners.

The song A Yay Kyi Pi (Thway thitsar) used in this episode can be found here.
