Even Though I Am Free, I Am Not

Having the right to your own opinion is one of the most important rights a person should have. Living in the Netherlands this right is considered as being normal. However in countries such as Burma it is not. U Win Tin is the living example, he is a former political prisoner and a member of the NLD (National League for Democracy). Although he has already spend 19 years in prison and is still in the danger of being re-arrested, U Win Tin is still promoting democracy and human rights.

In my opinion U Win Tin is a hero. He is constantly fighting for things he considers as being the right thing to do. The fact that human rights are being broken is a shame to all of us and it shoudl be stopped as soon as possible. Luckily we still have people like U Win Tin to fight for it, sadly enough this does mean that he is putting his life at stake.
