Suu Kyi's son asks public to set birthday message record
The Independent
|June 09, 2025
The son of political prisoner Aung San Suu Kyi has launched a bid to collect a world-record 80,000 messages from around the world to honour her 80th birthday.
Nobel Peace Prize winner Ms Suu Kyi faces 27 years in jail, with the democratically elected leader of Myanmar having been imprisoned during a military coup in 2021.
As well as asking for people to upload voice or video messages for Ms Suu Kyi’s birthday on 19 June, Kim Aris is also asking the public to sign an e-birthday card, which will help raise money for humanitarian aid for Myanmar. The messages will also be stored on a disk until Mr Aris can hand it to his mother in person.
In a video message, Mr Aris said: “The Suu 80 Birthday Wishes campaign offers a simple and secure way for individuals worldwide to upload a birthday wish honouring [Ms Suu Kyi’s] 80th birthday. Everyone can upload a birthday wish, free of charge.
