STAETEMENT ON ANNIVERSARY OF  8.8.88 PRO-DEMOCRACYUPRISING
(FOUR EIGHTS AFFAIR)
8,August 1999.

Today, we arrive at the , 11th Anniversary of the 8-8-88      Pro-democracy
Uprising        Four Eight
Affair) of Burma. 
8.8.88 is known as the inception of the  Non-violent Spiritual
Revolution, referring to the Burmese, people's mental  and spiritual
strength supporting the Pro-democracy and human Rights movement. 
We also think of 8 August 1988 as the traditional inception of the
Ideological Struggle and Ultimate struggle.. 
In history, independence from the  British in 1948 was the first
Independence of Burma.
In more recent history, the 8.8.88  pro-democracy uprising  was the
inception of the Requisition Struggle for independence from the.
3'yrAnnical Military Junta. 
On 8 August 1988, a Nation-wide Pro-democracy uprising  materialized ,
bringing together a heterogeneous gathering of people participating
together in perfect harmony,  In addition, it was the beginning or a
cohesive Struggle to depose  the Tyrannical Junta, the Burma socialist
programme Party (BSPP ); to empower tile Civilian Interim Government and to
establish Democracy and human Rights in Burma 
The Tyrannical Junta, the Burma Socialist Programme Party ( BSPP)
and its heir apparent, the State Law and Order Restoration Council (SLORC),
brutally cracked down tile Burmese People's Democratic Movement using armed
force, jealous of the role people would plea in a future Burma upholding
Democracy and Human Rights. 
Even it the earth expires, we will remember forever the Tyrannical Military
Junta's covetousness.
Even if the earth perishes, we will always revere the fatalities in the
8.8.88 Pro-democracy Uprising, tile Burmese people's traditional symbol of
bravery and sacrifice for Victory. 
'We denounce the BSPP, SLORC.,  and the SPDC, the third consecutive
Tyrannical Military Junta, as the saboteur Juntas. 
The Power-mad Tyrannical Military Junta will fall. 
Our Noble struggle will exist in Perpetuity.. 
The Blood Spirit of the Four Eight Struggle will exist in perpetuity
The Courageous Blood of the Four Eight Struggle will exist in Perpetuity.
