Myanmar journalists seek justice

Yangon - The Myanmar Journalists Association today sent a letter to Thailand Journalists Association, urging its counterpart to seek "the truth behind the bureaucratic and judicial judgement" on two migrant workers.

In the letter dated December 25, it said: "As journalists, our responsibility is to seek truth and justice."
It said that the death sentences handed down to Zaw Lin and Win Zaw Tun on the Christmas Eve was awful news.
MJA thanked TJA for the latter's assistance during the flooding. It said it is time for both to join hands again, to fight together for justice, human rights and democratic values.
"We do believe that our close cooperation in seeking justice after revealing the truth behind this controversial case will further promote the existing friendship not only between our two journalist associations but also between the peoples of our two countries," MJA said.
