Ko Htein Lin, also known as Kim Eric, the younger son of Myanmar’s democracy leader Aung San Suu Kyi, has launched an eight-city tour across the United States, calling for urgent international intervention to address Myanmar’s escalating humanitarian and political crisis.

Aung San Suu Kyi has been held in solitary confinement by the military junta for over four years without access to medical care or family contact, raising serious concerns about her well-being.

Now in her 80s, she remains in military custody as the junta continues its crackdown on civilians, carrying out airstrikes and mass killings that have displaced millions.
