Our Friend is Gone,
but Our Resistance in Myanmar Lives On
video
Op-Docs NYT 31 January 2024
San Zaw Htway was an
artist, activist,
political prisoner and dear friend.
From 2013 to 2017,
we lived and worked in Myanmar with San Zaw Htway,
who spent 13 years —
of a 36-year-sentence —
imprisoned under harsh conditions.
He died at the end of
2017 after a cancer diagnosis.
San Zaw Htway touched many lives,
serving as a
dedicated trauma counselor to former political prisoners
and teaching children
and refugees to make artwork using recycled materials,
as he did when he was
in prison.
After the February
2021 military coup in Myanmar,
a Burmese friend
wrote to us asking,
“What would San Zaw
Htway have done in a time like this?”
And so the idea for
this short documentary was born.
We asked San Zaw
Htway’s loved ones,
some of whom are in
hiding or are involved in the resistance,
to write to him as an
act of remembrance
and a way of seeking
solace and hope
in the midst of the military’s brutal crackdown.
This film is composed
of their words,
read by narrators to
protect the identity of the writers.
Until the end of his
life,
San Zaw Htway
retained his gentle wisdom and joy;
his many years of
suffering did not harden him to the world.
As the people of
Myanmar continue to live under violent military rule,
we hope this film
will shine a light on his legacy
and the Burmese
activists who have followed in his footsteps.

In Myanmar,
Harvesting for Heroin
BY Jonah M. Kessel |
Jan. 3, 2015 | 6:31 NYT
USA
A toxic mix of civil
war and poverty
has driven some
Burmese farmers back to poppy,
satisfying a growing
global hunger for heroin.

If It Were My Home
The headlines tell a lot
about the crisis in Yemen:
internal strife,
evacuations of international aid workers,
Saudi Arabian airstrikes.
But you may have one very basic question
that you can't easily find an answer for:
How big is Yemen,
anyway?
You can look at maps
and check out Wikipedia
but wouldn't it be great
to just to slap an outline of Yemen
on top of a map of the United States
to get a sense of its size?
IfItWereMyHome.com
lets you do just that.
