Since nobody is taking the initiative, I will. In the hope that people will find this post through Google.<\/p>\n

This is the plan!<\/span><\/p>\n

If you care about the situation in Burma at all… Please do the following.<\/p>\n

Go find the Chinese embassy (search: China Embassy on Google Maps<\/a>), and lay a maroon-red flower there. Preferably between 2 and 3pm today (but if you read this too late, any day will do – I plan to do it once every few days).<\/p>\n

Why maroon-red? It’s the colour of the robes of the Buddhist monks who were imprisoned, tortured, mutilated and killed in Burma.<\/p>\n

Why the Chinese embassy? They’re Burma’s main ally… THEY can do something about this situation, but so far haven’t.<\/p>\n

Why only a flower? Because of the small scale of participation. If we can’t organize a mass of people to come together at the same time… Let’s at least do something.<\/p>\n

The people in Burma were killed and abused while the world was watching. They’re blood’s not only on the junta’s hands, but on the hands of all who failed to act to prevent it. So please, do something!<\/p>\n

If you’re interested in setting something up, please email me at baslife (nospam) gmail – com<\/p>\n
