To commemorate this historic occasion, the Canadian Friends of Burma is planning to do numerous activities including the followings on August 8, 2008:· Proclamation of “Burma Day†in the City of Ottawa· Hoisting the symbol of Burmese democratic flag, “fighting peacockâ€Â· Screening film and documentaries e.g. “Beyond Rangoon,†and “Inside Burma, Land of Fearâ€Â· Photo Exhibitions on “8.8.88 uprising†in Burma· Production of CD album (song tracks contributed by Canadian musicians)· Demonstration in front of Burmese and Chinese EmbassyIf you want to get involved, please contact CFOB office at 613-237-8056, or email at cfob@cfob.org Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
