Members of the General Strike Committee (GSC) held a protest on Saturday to mark the fourth anniversary of the military coup in Burma. Two unfurled a banner stating: “All Power to the People” off of a pedestrian bridge in downtown Yangon. Anti-coup protests and support rallies for a return to democracy in Burma were held around the world.


On Friday, the regime extended its state of emergency for another six months. And inside Insein Prison, four members of the University Students’ Unions Alumni Force were sentenced to three years each by a military court for alleged incitement by spreading false news under Section 505 (A) of the Penal Code.
