               STATEMENT ON THE 7th ANNIVERSARY OF 8.8.88


                                           Date: August 8, 1995

August 8, 1995, this is the 7th anniversary of the day when the
people of Burma, bravely risked their lives to confront the
military dictatorship in Burma.

With the magnificent spirit of 8.8.88, the entire people of Burma
have been struggling since then for the restoration of democracy
in Burma. We, the ABSDF, proud members of the 8.8.88 generation
also continue with all means at hand to achieve democracy in
Burma.

As a result of this continuing struggle by the people,  the Slorc
military regime finally has released our national leader, Daw
Aung San Suu Kyi, 1991 Nobel Peace laureate. We must now continue
our struggle to achieve complete victory.

To settle the current political problems of Burma, we call on the
international community and the people of Burma to demand that
the Slorc:

1. Unconditionally release all political prisoners including
Student prominent leader Min Ko Naing.

2. Cancel all its unjust laws and orders.

3. Call a dialogue for national reconciliation.

4. Abolish its sham National Convention.

5. Set up an interim National Coalition Government led by Daw
Aung San Suu Kyi.

6. Establish genuine internal peace in Burma.

Struggle on with the spirit of 8.8.88!
Long live the spirit of 8.8.88!
