The Burma diaspora communities in Brisbane, Australia and Toronto, Canada held rallies on Nov. 19, 2022 to raise awareness and shine a spotlight on the atrocities committed by Burma’s military, which staged a coup and ousted Aung San Suu Kyi’s National League for Democracy government in February 2021. Funds were raised by the Burmese-Australian community to assist those displaced by the violence, and special guest Han Lay joined the Burmese-Canadian community addressing the illegal seizure of power in her homeland.
