If every single one of us did not buy anything for 24 hours--

340.1m X $43=max of 14624.3 m

but not everyone would have heard of boycott, and they'd have to buy their needs the next day--

but will it make a difference--I think it will--it will send a message.

e,g. in mid-1990s I asked my friend who wrote to New York Times if she was still doing activism.

she said,"I've given up. It won't make a difference one person doing something."

I soldiered on and in 2020-to Feb 2021 we had the start of at least almost 10 years of a quasi democracy--until, you guessed it, the junta staged a coup.

so much so the people are still risking their lives in the Resistance.

In early 2021 they started with homemade muskets.

It's unbelieveable.

My friend who died of cancer--not the same as YYCM mentioned above, DawTaw Myo Myint was so weak in 2005, CA-based friends of hers had a tribute for her.

She was a member of the last royal family. She was dressed all in white.

She said in a weak voice --"I will support Daw Aung San Suu Kyi till the day I die."

She said this three times.

Rest in Protest--dear Taw Myo Myint.
