SUNFLOWER FOR SUU

Sunflower for Suu

A non-violent campaign for Aung San Suu Kyi one sunflower at a time.


I saw some news about the campaign on Oz tv the other week. A guy was dropping sunflower seeds around Sydney and they were in bloom.

It made me aware of this 'Sunflower for Suu'.

But now when I try to search the original program down, I can't seem to find it. So kudos to the guy in Oz, but I can't identify you for now.

When I can find the Oz story I'll update this post. Please check out the website in the meantime, I like the 'one sunflower at a time' thing.
