Zaw Htet Ko Ko
Zaw Htet Ko Ko ((ビルマ語:ဇော်ထက်ကိုကို), ) is a Burmese political activist. In 2008, he was sentenced an 11-year prison sentence for his work with the pro-democracy 88 Generation Students Group, and his detention was criticized by human rights groups including Amnesty International, which named him a prisoner of conscience. He was released in October 2011 in a series of amnesties for political prisoners.
==88 Generation Students Group involvement==
Zaw Htet Ko Ko became involved in the 88 Generation Students Group shortly after its 2005 founding through his friend Htay Kywe, one of the group's leaders.〔 One analyst described the group as "not a political party, but rather a movement comprising a generation of students who were active during the 1988 pro-democracy uprising." The group called for an end to the rule of Burma's military leadership, the State Peace and Development Council; the release of all alleged political prisoners; and a return to democracy.〔 Their activities to this end included petition drives, prayer vigils, marches, fliers, and letter-writing campaigns.〔
Described by Amnesty International as an "Internet enthusiast", Zaw Thet Ko Ko helped the group communicate news of its protests to the outside world. He also served as the group's photographer at events such as its "White Sunday" campaign, in which activists wore white prisoner's clothing each Sunday to show solidarity with imprisoned activists.〔 Fellow activist U Aung Myint recalled asking Zaw Htet Ko Ko if he feared imprisonment, to which Zaw Htet Ko Ko reportedly replied: "Yes, I've considered everything, about dangers. If I don't do what I'm doing, who will do it for the Burmese people?"〔
