For Ko Aye Aung: A Plea for His Release from Prison
Ko Aye Aung was a second year Physics student at the Distance Education University, and is believed to have been a leading member of the All Burma Federation of Student Unions (ABFSU). This organization has been at the forefront of peaceful anti-government protests since 1988.
Ko Aye Aung was arrested on 14th September 1998 at Yangon (Rangoon).
Ko Aye Aung's basic "crime" seems to have been distributing leaflets and taking part in small scale peaceful demonstrations in Yangon (Rangoon) largely concerned with education policies and practices.
