My life has been diverse, ranging from the student movement on campus to the national movement, then to armed struggle, and this time the duty of the Spring Revolution. It is my true desire not to leave the new generations a legacy of bad history.”

Ko Phone Maw and Ko Soe Naing are symbols representing the youth who sacrificed their lives for Myanmar’s democracy. Even today, 35 years after the deaths of those young people, the military regime is still brutally killing the youth of the country. All of us have a responsibility to end the tragedies in which the country’s young people have been killed by the military power-hungries for ages as soon as possible,” said the Union Minister in his message.
