88 Generation Students Group
The 88 Generation Students ((ビルマ語:၈၈ မျိုးဆက် ကျောင်းသားများ)) is a Burmese pro-democracy movement known for their activism against the country's military junta. Many of its members were imprisoned by the Burmese government on charges of "illegally using electronic media" and "forming an illegal organisation". A number of Western governments and human rights organisations called for the release of group members on the grounds that they were political prisoners.
==8888 Uprising==
The group takes its name from the 8888 Uprising, a series of student-led protests in 1988 opposing the military rule of Ne Win. In September 1987, Ne Win voided most denominations of the kyat without warning, causing many people to lose their savings overnight. Students who saved money for tuition fees were particularly affected.〔 The announcement led to riots at several universities.〔Lwin, Nyi Nyi. (1992). ''Refugee Student Interviews''. A Burma-India Situation Report.〕 The situation was further exacerbated by the shooting of protesting student Phone Maw in a 12 March 1988 clash with police.〔Boudreau, Vincent. (2004). ''Resisting Dictatorship: Repression and Protest in Southeast Asia.'' Cambridge University Press. ISBN 978-0-521-83989-1. p. 193.〕 The protests continued to grow through August of that year, and on 8 August 1988 (8-8-88), a general strike began from which the uprising would later take its name.〔Tucker, Shelby. (2001). ''Burma: The Curse of Independence.'' Pluto Press. ISBN 978-0-7453-1541-6. p. 228〕
The protests culminated in the 1990 general election, in which Aung San Suu Kyi's opposition party the National League for Democracy won 392 of 492 available seats.〔Nohlen, D, Grotz, F & Hartmann, C (2001) ''Elections in Asia: A data handbook, Volume I'', p611 ISBN 0-19-924958-X〕 However, the military refused to recognise the results, and continued to rule the country as the State Peace and Development Council (SPDC).〔 Following the coup, many future members of the 88 Generation Students Group were imprisoned for participation in pro-democracy activities, including Min Ko Naing, Mie Mie, Htay Kywe, and Nilar Thein.
