Blogger Jotman interviewed 54 year-old Burmese activist Zawn Yein Latt, who chairs the Burma Political Prisoner’s Union (BPPU). Latt has spent many years behind bars in Burma as a political prisoner, first in the late 1970s and again in the 1990s.  In a cafe near the Thai-Burma border, for several hours, Latt talked about his life, and particularly, about where the opposition needs to go from here.

In the following video clip, Zawn Yein Latt pulls out a printout of the statement by Aung San Suu Kyi and discusses the significance of her message. He explains what it means for the democratic movement — and what it doesn’t say.
